VfL Lübeck-Schwartau wins an important point at TuS N-Lübbecke
An exciting handball game between VfL Lübeck-Schwartau and TuS N-Lübbecke ended in a fair 28:28 draw. This point is the first away point of the season for VfL in the second handball Bundesliga. Despite a strong opening phase and a temporary two-goal lead, the team was ultimately not entirely satisfied with the draw, as Paul Holzhacker said in an initial analysis. “We had the feeling that more could have been possible,” said the player.
Coach David Röhrig, who ordered the final move in the decisive phase of the game, saw his protégés compete without four regular players: Skorupa, Hagedorn, Juhl and Heinemann were missing due to injuries. Nevertheless, the team showed a strong defensive performance, while goalkeeper Nils Conrad saved important balls, which pleased the spectators.
Gameplay in detail
The match started promisingly for VfL Lübeck-Schwartau. In the 17th minute the guests led 8:6. But a few mistakes in the second half meant that TuS took the lead 14:12 at halftime. After the substitution, VfL quickly fell behind and was 15:19 behind in the 38th minute. Mark Ferjan, who later also stood out for his strong saves, initiated the comeback and made a decisive contribution to VfL leveling the score at 19:19.
As the game progressed, the team even took the lead and was ahead 26:23 at one point. In a nerve-wracking finish, Nickelsen gave Lübeck-Schwartau a 28:27 lead, but Henri Pabst equalized for TuS 52 seconds before the end. Referees Schwarzmeier and Stewen had a lot to do during the game, and the time penalties reflected the intense game: TuS N-Lübbecke collected five time penalties, VfL three.
