2013 European championships of rink-hockey U17: Spain dominates Switzerland

As Portugal and France, Spain held its place tonight in Alcobendas (Spain) at the U17 European Championship of rink-hockey. Opposed to Switzerland, the Iberian have only needed a half-time to seal their victory (5/0).

The score is fair but tough against a Helvetian team in full reconstruction. Swiss is hoping to improve its position obtained last year (8th) at the last Euro in Ploufragan (France).

Tomorrow, the Ordeig players will have the opportunity to confirm their good start to the championship against Austria which will make its debut in the competition.
