Defeat against Ystads IF: SG Flensburg-Handewitt’s handball series in the European League is over. The FA Göppingen series also ended, but they will have been happy about it there.
The German ex-champion Flensburg lost in the preliminary round group B after his dream start with three wins in a row on Tuesday evening (November 29th, 2022) at the Swedish outsider Ystads IF 26:30 (14:17).
Göppingen ends the negative series
First division relegation candidate FA Göppingen, on the other hand, celebrated another success in Group A with a completely safe 34:24 (19:8) against the Slovakian guests from the pointless bottom Tatran Presov after five competitive defeats in a row.
Both Flensburg and Göppingen are still among the top groups. The four best teams from each of the four groups advance to the round of 16.
Foxes could consolidate the lead in the table
Later on Tuesday evening, Bundesliga leaders Füchse Berlin, who are still undefeated on the European stage, have the chance to consolidate their lead in Group C against Portugal’s representative Aguas Santas Milaneza, who is still pointless.
