    Before the start of the season, some experts had predicted that the completely renewed team from Zagreb would have problems even reaching the playoffs. However, the many young players in the squad developed well very quickly and helped the team achieve some surprising successes. Six wins are compared to five defeats in the premier class and, among other things, they were able to bring the star ensemble from Paris Saint Germain to their knees with 28:26.

    Since the defeat against SC Magdeburg a month ago, THW has been in good shape and has not lost a competitive game. In addition to a draw in Kielce, there were six mostly confident victories for Filip Jícha’s team. Most recently there was a 36:29 win against Balingen in the Bundesliga at the weekend. Goalkeeper Samir Bellahcene, who is not in the home team’s squad today due to a thigh injury, was missing. In addition to Tomáš Mrkva, Magnus Bierfreund is slated for the job between the posts. Even though the quarter-finals have already been booked, the Northern Lights want to go all out again today. “We definitely want to finish the group phase in first place and we will do everything we can to achieve that,” said captain Nikola Bilyk.

  • 6:17 p.m

    With nine wins and two draws and two defeats, THW is at the top of the table in Group A before the final match day. Direct qualification for the quarter-finals can no longer be taken away from the Zebras and if they get at least a draw today, they will also win the group ahead of the Danish top club Aalborg Håndbold, who are currently two points behind. For the guests from Zagreb it is already clear that they are going to the playoffs. However, between third and sixth place everything is still possible for the Croatians, who are fighting today for the best possible starting position for the knockout round.
