Magdeburg's championship dream: dramatic defeat in Hanover!

Magdeburg, Deutschland - drama pure in handball! SC Magdeburg, reigning German champion, has once again suffered a bitter setback. Despite a strong performance with 27 goals achieved, the TSV Hannover-Burgdorf team lost 28:27 (14:13). A four-goal lead in the final phase was played lightly, and the fans have to put up with a defeat again.

The game started like a nightmare for the hosts: After only six minutes, the SCM was already 5: 1 behind, favored by technical errors and weak degrees. Coach Bennet Wiegert reacted quickly with a break that had an effect. The connection was restored in the 9: 8 (14th minute), and an exciting duel developed that was characterized by thrill. In the 52nd minute, Magdeburg even led with 26:22, but the turn came when Hannover-Burgdorf took over in the last few minutes.

on the same day when the team lost, there was also a reason for joy for goalkeeper Nikola Portner. He announced the birth of his daughter Emilija on Instagram. "If life makes sense ... welcome my little angel," wrote the new father. While Portner cheers privately, the team has to fight all the more for the sporting challenges.

The excitement during the game could not be overlooked. A controversial moment occurred when Hannover-Burgdorfs Martin Hanne asked Magdeburg Bank to dry a damp ball. SCM coach Wiegert, who was constantly in exchange with the referees, caused an additional tension when he took the ball away from one of his players and threw it back. The hall raged when the last attack of the SCM was awarded by Albin Lagergren. The master is involved in the list of favorites who have lost in the "Favorites Cemetery" in Hanover.
