After that blindside hit, I don't wanna say she was targeted this game, but it sure seemed like it to me.
After the game Lopu�anová was diagnosed with a fractured wrist and will miss the next 6 weeks.
In the last boys' match Nela Lopusanova suffered a fractured wrist. Treatment time 6 weeks.
Nela copes with it with a smile.
