exciting course of the game

The match started with a gap of 0: 1 for Leipzig, but soon the young talents Andri Rúnarsson and Staffan Peter took care of the first tour (2-1). Despite the expected defense battle, the gates flew through the air - a rapid 6: 6 was on the scoreboard after ten minutes. After an interim 14:13 by Matej Klíma, the Erlangen waved on the offensive and took the lead with 15:17.

The decisive moment of the first half came in the final second when Franz Semper secured the connection to 16:17 with a courageous throw and thus kept the hopes of SC DHfK alive.

in the second half, Leipzig showed a completely different face. The Leipziger coach decided to change a goalkeeper and brought Domenico Ebner into play. This change should prove to be spot on, because Ebner kept his box between the 32nd and 44th minute, which gave Leipzig the opportunity to find back into play.

Leipzig's returnee Luca Witzke and Viggó Kristjánsson always found ways to break through the Erlangen defense. The Leipziger offensive strategy was successful and they continuously expanded their leadership. With a comfortable 29:23 in the final phase, the victory was finally within reach.

The last goals scored Moritz Preuss and Luka Rogan before the final whistle fell and the Leipzig fans celebrated the team with frenetic applause. The main round in the Quarterback Immobilien Arena remains for the SC DHfK without flawing.

The coaches of Idente teams spoke about the course of the game: Martin Schwalb, the trainer of HC Erlangen, congratulated Leipzig and admitted that the first half was promising for his team, while the second half had remained below expectations. SC DHFK coach Rúnar Sigtryggsson, on the other hand, was proud of the performance of his team, especially the strong performance in the second half, supported by the enthusiastic fans.

The next game for SC DHfK will take place on Sunday, October 20, in the East derby against SC Magdeburg. The Leipzig team will endeavor to continue their impressive series and maintain the good atmosphere in the arena.

A look at the goal scorers shows the even distribution of the goals: Klíma, Binder, Kristjánsson, Witzke and numerous others contributed significantly to success. While the Erlangen tried to reduce the gap through Svensson, a bit and other actors, Leipzig understood to assert itself and to control the game significantly.
