Champions League Teams Include Foxes in Their Ranks - Remarkable hostage-taker additionally slays Hanover residents
In just 1:51 minutes, a new record was set in the Liqui Moly Handball Bundesliga. Füchse's star player Mathias Gidsel (25) scored his 249th goal of the season, surpassing the previous record holder, Kyung-Shin Yoon (50) from Gummersbach. Yoon had scored 248 field goals in the 2000/01 season and held the record for 23 years.
Gidsel (now with 7 goals, making it a total of 255) expressed his pride on the DYN microphone, "It's great to have surpassed such a handball legend, but what mattered most today were the two points. I'm immensely proud of the team. We didn't play the best handball, but we won."
The match was thrilling, with both teams fighting to gain a lead of more than two goals. In the playoff for the Olympic ticket, Hannover's Marian Michalczik (28) and Berlin's Nils Lichtlein (21) had a lot at stake. Lichtlein had previously suffered from adductor problems, and Siewert (30), the Füchse coach, replaced him with Fabian Wiede (30) in the 18th minute for the rest of the game.
Before half time, the Foxes were playing better and had a four-goal advantage (18:14) after 35 minutes. However, Hannover continued to persistently close the gap (26:24, 56'). The Recken constantly disturbed the Foxes with successful counter-attacks.
After the break, the Foxes' strong start was evident, and they led by four goals for the first time. The teams' momentum seesawed, with misplaced passes and technical mistakes (12 for Hannover, 14 for Berlin) marring the last part of the match. Despite the errors, Gidsel and his Berlin teammates maintained composure to clinch victory.
