One of the few that can really keep the center block busy…

The Kiel coach Jícha takes his first Team timeout! There’s 55 seconds left on the clock, but he’s only interested in the next attack.

Goal for Fresh Up! Göppingen, 12:17 p.m. by Marcel Schiller
It wasn’t his afternoon out of the game, but the veteran remains consistent from the line. Even if he comes off the bench, he nets with a deviated throw.

Goal for THW Kiel, 11:16 by Rune Dahmke
The withdrawal behavior of the green shirts is still their biggest shortcoming today: the zebras overtake the home side with their second wave at will – they radiate absolute control of the game.

The EWS Arena is silent, the Göppingen do not play the majority well. In the following action, Goller throws Mrkva into his hands while trying to hit the empty goal…

So far there is no mood: The Baltic Sea townspeople are rolling out their program, but the Swabians don’t seem to have developed the full fighting spirit yet…

Goal for Fresh Up! Göppingen, 9:12 by Krešimir Kozina
With a strong move Malus sends Pekeler on the journey, Øverby has to help out. Then the middle man serves Kozina with a great pass from the forearm, played great in two against two.

The THW plays from a single source, especially the offensive efforts of the record champions prove to be easy today. Göppingen has little to counter that defensively, especially with the speed game, the southern Germans have serious problems.

Goal for THW Kiel, 6:11 by Yannick Fraatz
Good jump, good throw! The angle was not good, Fraatz has to jump off with the wrong leg, but he pulls the leather up into the corner.

According to the Spanish school, coach Jícha makes a colorful change through his staff after almost exactly a quarter of an hour. Wallinus, Fraatz, Pekeler and Dahmke can now aim for the championship title.

Goal for THW Kiel, 5:9 by Niclas Ekberg
Casual! The Swede simply drops the ball into the left corner from seven meters and dupes Marin Šego.

In the majority there must be more… Schiller takes a good angle, but his spin is a hit for Mrkva. Schiller also runs the next counterattack, but Mrkva buys that too.

2 minutes for Petter Øverby (THW Kiel)
Šarac crosses in front of the defense, moves towards the Norwegian and wins the duel at hand. Øverby follows in the air, so he can’t complain about the 2-minute suspension.
12.
15:44
Markus Baur is fed up, the retreat movement doesn’t suit him at all. In addition, new ideas are needed against the very offensive half-backs of Kiel. That’s why the Göppingen trainer takes the first one time out!

Göppingen tries to accept Sagosen and Reinkind early in the second wave, but so far this tactical means has been completely wrong.

Yellow card for Magnus Landin (THW Kiel)
Kiel has to defend offensively, the changes didn’t work out. Landin interrupts the second wave…

It’s the goals of the soft wrists: Kozina’s spin goes beautifully past Mrkva’s leg, Landin’s lob is at least as spectacular and sinks perfectly off the post.

However, as soon as the Kielers are attacking in position, the defense acts in a more organized manner. Sagosen finds his pivot, but Wiencek fails because of Marin Šego.

Both teams open at high speed, but Göppingen in particular still have trouble organizing their defense in retreat.

Let’s go – the last ride of the season between FrischAuf! Göppingen and THW Kiel is open
15:27
The game will be led by referees Ramesh and Suresh Thiyagarajah, with Thorsten Zacharias hiring out as game supervisor.
15:21
However, the balance clearly speaks for the record champions: there were 42 duels between green and white shirts, 37 clashes went to THW in total, as did the last six comparisons. In the first leg, the zebras in Kiel struggled to a 30:26, but if Göppingen was able to build tension, then it was on home soil. But since 2015, the North Germans have always won, last season even with 38:26. Göppingen’s coach Baur will prepare his team for the last hot ride, but Kiel’s coach Jícha also doesn’t want any more doubts about the championship.
15:12
A used season is coming to an end for Göppingen, since the change of coach from Hartmut Mayerhoffer to Markus Baur, the southern Germans have been able to stabilize and make it clear early on that they will have nothing to do with relegation. The third place in the European League is certainly to be regarded as a respectable success, but the probably 14th place in the league should clearly cloud the mood among the Swabians. At the beginning of June, the Badeners presented themselves as a fright of the favorites and defeated the foxes from Berlin. At the last appearance in front of a sold-out house, a comparable feat should succeed again against the league leader.
15:03
The last day of the game selects the German champions, rarely has it been so exciting until June. The zebras are playing a strong second half of the season, are now unbeaten in the league since the home defeat against Leipzig in March, and dominate from Platz der Sonne. While SC Magdeburg has to win in Stuttgart, the North Germans could also afford a defeat. In that case it would depend on the goal difference, which at +37 clearly speaks for the people of Fördestadt. Accordingly, the bowl will go to the Baltic Sea, but the Jícha squad would also like to say goodbye to the summer break from the 22/23 season in a way that is worthy of a champion.
14:54
What a long but exciting season it was in the supposedly strongest league in the world. For a long time, the fight for the championship was considered more balanced than ever. Until shortly before the home stretch of the season, Füchse Berlin, SC Magdeburg and THW Kiel were still in the running, even Flensburg and Rhein-Neckar-Löwen were able to stand up to the trio for a long time. Since the 32nd day of play, the people of Kiel have finally had it in their own hands to win the 23rd championship – in fact they are almost certain of the title, today there shouldn’t be any mathematical doubts anymore.
14:45
Hello and welcome to the season finale of the Handball Bundesliga! On match day 34, FrischAuf! Göppingen and the record champions from Kiel against each other, throw-off is in the EWS Arena at 3:30 p.m.!
