Kiel handball thriller: THW defies deficit and achieves a draw against Löwen!
THW Kiel remains unbeaten in the Handball Bundesliga, but suffered its first loss of points on matchday yesterday. In the exciting duel against the Rhein-Neckar Löwen, the game ended 31:31. Coach Filip Jicha's team had to make up a three-goal deficit in the final minutes in order to take at least one point. After an early deficit, Kiel had stabilized, but was no longer able to win. NDR reports that Kiel's first goal only came after four minutes and Lukas Laube equalized in the seventh minute. Elias Ellefsen a Skipagötu took the lead in the twelfth minute, but the Lions woke up and turned the game around.
Although Kiel was still behind 9:11 in the 22nd minute, they fought back and added a little run after a timeout by coach Jicha. Andreas Wolff in particular was a strong supporter, with several important saves - including against Tim Nothdurft when the score was 22:22. Ten minutes before the end, the tension continued as Kiel was two goals behind. They only managed to equalize with a three-goal run, but Harald Reinkind's last throw was parried, giving the Lions a point.
