SVG Lüneburg conjures up a comeback victory in a thrilling Champions League duel!

Lüneburg.A spectacle in a class of its own! SVG Lüneburg achieved an incredible 3-2 victory in a thrilling Champions League duel against Chaumont VB 52. The game, which attracted 2,476 enthusiastic fans in the hall, started anything but promising. After a difficult start and a 0-2 deficit, hope of a win seemed to be dwindling. But SVG proved once again that she has the heart of a champion!

“The atmosphere here played a big part in the turnaround,” explained Lukas Maase, the ex-Lüneburg player and now middle blocker at Chaumont. The spectators felt that the game was not yet lost and cheered on their team tirelessly. Captain Theo Mohwinkel noticed that SVG fought its way back little by little, while the French, who appeared strong at the beginning, stumbled. SVG exploited the opponent's weaknesses and showed an impressive team performance that ultimately made the decisive difference.

A thrilling finale

Things got really exciting in the tiebreak! The lead changed constantly, and when Maase ended the game with a failed serve, SVG's joy was boundless. “Bitter,” said Maase, “but if I have to lose, then preferably against SVG.” With this victory, SVG Lüneburg not only passed the first major stress test of the season, but also sent a strong signal. The next duel awaits on Saturday against the Grizzlys Giesen, who are burning for redemption after a defeat against Fenerbahce Istanbul.

Mohwinkel is optimistic: “If we can always bring this energy onto the field like we did against Chaumont, then we don’t have to be afraid of any opponent.” SVG Lüneburg has proven that it is ready to shine in the Champions League!
