Malta wins Bronze Medal
by di-ve.com
The Women’s National team made history once again by winning the
first ever medal at senior level at a Promotion Cup.
The team won the bronze medal in the 9th edition of the Promotion Cup
in Andorra after beating Armenia 69-61. The result does not show the
superiority that Malta had throughout the match as it was only in the
last session were the team was administrating the game that the
Armenians managed to make the result more respectable.
This win means that Malta won four out of its five games played in
Andorra, and has by far got the best ever result in a Promotion Cup.
The team arrived back in Malta on Monday morning.
