Wiegert scores twice in the Champions League game. - Football coach Wiegert secures a brace in the Champions League
SC Magdeburg, a Bundesliga team, is preparing for their opening match in the Champions League preliminary round. The highly-anticipated encounter with Paris Saint-Germain is scheduled to take place at the Getec Arena on an evening of intense competition - 8:45 PM to be exact.
Coach Benet Wiegert is eager to secure one of the top two spots in the preliminary round, aiming to make the path to the Final Four easier. The team's recent form, with three consecutive Bundesliga victories, has boosted their confidence, and Wiegert welcomes this surge in self-belief.
However, Wiegert is quick to emphasise that the Bundesliga wins are not directly relevant for the Champions League match against Paris. He acknowledges the physical strength and play through the centre that Paris possess, and sees the intensity of the Bundesliga as an advantage over their French counterparts.
Avoiding playing catch-up from the start is a key goal for SC Magdeburg. Wiegert prefers working with confident players instead of dealing with uncertainty, and he believes that the team's recent form has provided them with just that.
The match will be broadcast on Dyn and DAZN, with the Champions League match between SC Magdeburg and Paris not scheduled to be aired on Dyn. Fans who wish to catch the action live can tune in to DAZN for an evening of exciting handball.
As the opening match for SC Magdeburg approaches, Wiegert reiterates the importance of starting well in the competition. The team's previous victories away in Lemgo, against FΓΌchse Berlin, and at home against Eisenach serve as a reminder of their potential, and they will be looking to carry that momentum into the Champions League.
The current coach of Paris Saint-Germain, the French handball Champions League team that SC Magdeburg faces in the group stage, is Stefan Madsen. With both teams eager to make their mark in the competition, the stage is set for a thrilling encounter.
As the countdown to the match begins, SC Magdeburg and their fans are filled with anticipation. The team is determined to make a strong start in the Champions League, and with their recent form and Wiegert's strategic approach, they are well-positioned to do so. Let the games begin!
