The German handball champion SC Magdeburg said goodbye to the 2021/22 Bundesliga season with a win.
The new title holder won the last match day against the Rhein-Neckar Löwen with 37:34 (20:19) and ended the season with 64:4 points as the sovereign title holder ahead of record champions THW Kiel (58:10). After the game, coach Bennet Wiegert’s team received the championship trophy for the second time since 2001.
Oldie Hans Lindberg from Füchsen Berlin was crowned top scorer. The 40-year-old Dane scored nine times in the 22:28 against SG Flensburg-Handewitt, increasing his tally to 242 goals this season.
Lemgo can hope for a place in the European League
TBV Lemgo Lippe won the fight for the possible last starting place in the European League. Thanks to a 28:24 win against HSV Hamburg, the East Westphalians maintained sixth place in the table and can therefore hope for the wild card requested by the HBL from the European Association. As expected, the second relegation next to TuS N-Lübbecke is HBW Balingen-Weilstetten.
