Magdeburg celebrates premier class away win in Porto

The series continues: SC Magdeburg is currently unstoppable on the European stage and has moved up to the valuable second place in its Champions League group.

Coach Bennet Wiegert’s team celebrated their 20th competitive win in a row with a never-threatened 40:31 (19:16) at FC Porto.

With the eighth win in the tenth premier class game, the defending champions (16:4 points) now rank directly behind league leaders FC Barcelona (18:2) in Group B. Second place would give the SCM direct entry into the quarter-finals at the end of the group phase.

Omar Ingi Magnusson and Tim Hornke scored the most goals for Magdeburg in Portugal on Thursday evening with eight goals each.
