Demanding and high scoring Thursday evening

EHF Champions League GROUP STAGE ROUND 3 29 September 2022

KIEL - SZEGED

BARCA - CELJE

NANTES - ELVERUM

THW leading 6-5 12’ as I rushed back from the errands.

THW's MRKVA 17 saves. Where was he playing previously? I may have seen play in a SEPA match a long time ago. Definitely Man of the Match Award.

Weinhold at least 2 goals

Wiencek at least 3 goals

Reinkind at least 3 goals

Rosta at least 4 goals

8-6 15’40

MRKVA almost saved the 7-meter.

Bodgan at least 3 goals

Zarabek at least 2 goals

Wallinius at least 2 goals

Imanol G at least 3 goals

Gaber at least 1 goal

Ekberg at least 2 goals

What a save like a reverse penguin

Czech Filip speaking in German so eloquently. As you expecet from him.

Long throw missed and 11-9 21’

Empty goal strategy of no use as Alilovic scores 11-10 22’

Better defence by Pick. At the moment anyway.

Overby  at least 4 goals

Overby was given a great opportunity

Bodo at least 1 goal

Alilovic has more saves over the last couple of mins and Kiel are not finding the solutions they should

Blonz with a wonderful wrist goal 12-13 25’20

Alilovic saves the 7-meter. Then a couple of mins later scores himself

Wiencek collescts the ball and draws level without a long throw but with strength

Soares  at least 1 goal and Johansson at least 1 goal exchanged good goals

Time to construct for THW but its not happening yet 14-14 28’

Jicha is worried. Will he produce a magical rally talk?

15-14 at the interval as screen froze

A lot of missed chances and then 32’30 Rosta restores the parity

Missed a couple of goals from THW as I was looking after a coat

Superb goal by Bodgan but THW via Overby responds 22-18 40’

Great defense by THW

Under-arm at the 2nd time of asking surprises Mikler

Alilovic back in goal

Szita at least 1 goal

Suddenly a lot of space found. Not sure why ! Tactical awareness? No its Filip's magic oozing through the team.

25-19 45’45

27-23 49’35

Bilik scores acrobatically but Bombac responds 28-24 50’

Wrist opens up via absolute legend Ekberg

Wiencek beats Ali to the delirium of Sparkassen Arena fans 30-24 52’

Djvunak has his second goal as the defence is no longer making the effort to pull or track back.

Its getting worse 33-25. Pick angriness. He may have lost his players and asked for a time out a bit too late

 Its game over really 33-26 55’ Mathematically yes.

That chance on the post sums it up.

Top corner goal. Lovely handball.

34-28 29’20

Counter by Szeged and it finished 34-29.

Barca and Nantes at the same time but the computer struggles a tad.

Impressive Fab 3-2 4’. Quickly becomes 7-3 7’. Onslaught? Not yet?

Elverum very steady and pacy 2-4 6’40

Odri energetically draws level 4-4 8’20

In the meantime 9-4 for Barca cruising

Minne double sends the Violets two up 6-4 10’

Marguc scores almost all Celje goals

Getting ready for tomorrow despite the exhaustion. A lot of presentations today and PC-related things.


Time flies with the above memory from November 2018.

Nantes 12-9 and 15-11  Barca tough to chat with Dad and watch the match.

Celje catching up seriously 15-13 24’

Nantes having a 4-goal cushion.

Superb top corner by Dika 18-14 and Wanne adds his pace 19-14 29’

Elverum unlucky with the 2-minute suspensions now trailing by 7 17-10 25’20

What a save by Gonzalo. 19-15 at the break.

Pesic cannot avoid the Awad doubke and it is only 19-14 with a min left before the interval

Another freeze but on song to see number 20. I was not expecting such a turnaround after a difficult start. 20-14 to the H.

I missed 12 mins because of a small issue. Celje are winning now but Nantes staying firm.

Melvin drawing level

7 by Kwanne and 7 by Mem

Breathing time again for Barca 33-28 10 mins later and in Nantes a 10-goal lead with ten minutes to go.

Red card for Monar


Going the memory lane. How about the Aalborg tea time moment !

Why did Celje implode? 38-29 and this means losing by 12-2 over 17 mins.

38-30 to Barca

Psychological number 39 !!!

39-29 58’. Nantes get 2 additional points.

40-29 59’20. ICI C’est Nantes.

In the end 41-30. APLASTANTE !

Kiel and Barca consolidating their top spots.

I am exhausted and I did not play either of these three matches ! A very short night beckons.

See you at the Parnasse in Nimes tomorrow !
