The most challenging goalkeeper in the league - Full coverage on the twelve:
### Hardest Goalie in the League!
During the first half, winger Tim Hornke accidentally struck the goalkeeper on the left side of his face with the ball, resulting in a two-minute penalty for Hornke.
However, the incident in the second half was much worse. With the score at 18:15, Felix Claar struck the ball from his hip with over 100 km/h, hitting the goalkeeper directly in the face.
The Norwegian didn't anticipate the ball as it was hidden and fell unconscious. Doctor ReneĢ Toussaint rushed onto the field, examining his eyes closely. Goalie colleague Domenico Ebner, who was sidelined due to an elbow injury, stood by with a sturdy neck.
Soon after, Saeveras was given the go-ahead to continue.
The Norwegian now recounts, "The throw was already quite severe and quite painful. Since I couldn't see the ball, I couldn't properly prepare myself. Fortunately, it was a Hummel ball, which is a little softer than other balls." He then chuckled, "Saving is saving. It doesn't matter which body part."
How is he feeling the day after?
Saeveras: "I slept well, trained well. I'm looking forward to the final two games in Kiel and at home against the Lions. After that, I have three weeks of vacation, and I'll recover on Crete."
It's just that he needs to keep his face in the sun.
