Nümbrecht conjures up comeback: dramatic victory against Wuppertal!

Nümbrecht, Deutschland - A handball thriller of top-class! The SSV Nümbrecht put a real comeback in the gripping duel against LTV Wuppertal and won the game with 29:28. After a catastrophic gap of nine goals in the second half, the game already seemed to be lost, but coach Manuel Seensche praised his players' overwhelming will: "I am still fully under adrenaline. That was pure will. Simply breathtaking!"

The match was characterized by an incredible intensity and a total of 24 time penalties! Nümbrecht started strongly, but Wuppertal quickly took control and led at half -time with 14:10. After the break everything seemed lost when Wuppertal pulled away to 22:13. But then the turn came: With an open man cover and a brave attack game, the Nümbrechter fought their way back into play and turned the sheet in the last few minutes. Harald Roth was the hero of the evening, which achieved the equalization with a seven meter and marked the decisive goal!

relegation battle for the HBD Löwen

While Nümbrecht cheered, it looks dark for the HBD Löwen Oberberg. After the defeat against TB Wülfrath with 21:28, the team finally arrived in the relegation battle. Coach Maik Thiele is frustrated: "I have to affirm that now. We are right in the middle of it." The lions, which were still strong last season, are now in twelfth place with only 4:14 points. The team weakened injuries and departures, and the hope of a turn.

Although the lions found well into play at the beginning and led 8: 5, mistakes crept into the Wülfrath. Thiele criticized the weak throw rate of only 50 percent: "This is not enough to win a game." With a clear focus on relegation, it will now be a tough fight for the lions to save the season.
