In the first leg a week ago, SCM initially struggled a bit and was in the lead for the first time in the second round. But thanks to the well-behaved keepers and a great final sprint, Magdeburg was able to prevail with 28:25. Now it’s time to defend this three-goal cushion. “Despite the win in the first leg, we’re still a long way from that. I’m sure Nantes will give us a really tough evening“Said goalkeeper Yannick Green in the Magdeburg People’s Voice.
Coach Bennet Wiegert also warns of the opponent’s away strength: “Nantes often gets along better away than at home. The team can handle pressure. We are still missing 60 concentrated minutes.“
