Dramatic cup game: ASV Hamm loses 30:31 after a seven-meter drama
In a thrilling duel in the DHB Cup, ASV Hamm-Westphalia had to admit defeat to rivals Tusem Essen 30:31 on Wednesday evening. The decision came in the last second, when ASV captain Fabian Huesmann converted a decisive seven-meter penalty, but was totally disappointed in his own disappointment. The score was previously 30:31 and the Essen team celebrated their move into the next round.
The exciting encounter took place in Hamm, where the hosts initially had difficulty finding their way into the game. ASV coach Michael Hegemann, who moved from Tusem to Hamm in the summer, was disappointed with the result. “We failed to get the momentum on our side,” he said. His assistant coaches, who accompanied him from Essen, were also unable to support the game because one was missing due to illness.
Tension of the game
The game quickly picked up speed, but the hosts often allowed the Essen team to score easy goals. In the first half, ASV was ahead 14:12, but then they made mistakes that gave Tusem the opportunity to turn the game around. Essen went into the break with a narrow 15:14 lead.
Hamm came into the game better at the beginning of the second half and fought his way back through various tactical changes. But a brief moment of superiority didn't last long because the guests were able to improve again and the ASV was always behind. With the score at 20:20, the hosts finally seemed to have gotten into the game, but were promptly forced to give up the lead again while encountering a weak defense from Essen.
The race for victory was particularly exciting in the final section, when Essen keeper Dominik Plaue proved to be a difficult wall to overcome. The ASV actually had the majority, but they couldn't take advantage of their chances. “We should have done better,” commented Hegemann about the last few minutes.
The game ended in a dramatic showdown that captivated the audience until the last second. Because Tusem was clever enough to keep the upper hand in the decisive phase and unmistakably celebrate the joy of the victory in the away game.
