SG Flensburg-Handewitt receives Croatian challengers Sesvete!

at an exciting start to the EHF European League is a special game on the program for SG Flensburg-Handewitt on Tuesday. At 6.45 p.m. the encounter in the GP Joule Arena will kick off against the MRK Sesvete. This is not only the first Tuesday game of the season, but also the first encounter against the Croatian club.

The team of Flensburg returned from a long return trip on Sunday evening and had already made the video analysis of the upcoming opponent on the bus. The results were surprising. "Sesvete does not play Eastern European, but as modern as Scandinavian teams," analyzed coach Nicolej Krickau. The Croatian side often relies on a classic 6: 0 coverage in the game, but occasionally switches to a 5: 1 system. In the attack, the decision-making process in standard situations is just as good and strategically sophisticated as the SG is used to. Only the playmaker who sets creative accents lifts the already convincing system to a higher level.

enthusiasm at MRK Sesvete

The MRK Sesvete came to a clear 28:24 win against the MRK Trogir on Saturday, which gave another thrust for the team before the trip to Germany was due. "For all of my players, the match in Flensburg will be the greatest of their career and a great experience," said Igor Vori, the trainer and croatic handball star. If you consider that Sesvete is the third Croatian club that plays in Flensburg, these words speak for themselves. The RK Zagreb, which was known for a long time for its frequent visits, and the RK Metkovic Jambo, once EHF Cup winner from 2000, have a great tradition in this context.

The Flensburg boys, who did not train in tactical on Monday, prepare for this exciting challenge. In view of the narrow time frame, only one meeting takes place. However, the squad is reinforced with two young talents: Oskar Czertowicz and Thilo Knutzen join the team, while it is still unclear which players can be used without restrictions. The tension increases and the players are preparing for an exciting game.
