Hanover’s handball champions showed a stunning display of skill and determination during their recent match against SC Magdeburg, forcing the master to their knees with a score of 34:31 (17:14). The ZAG Arena was buzzing with excitement from the 6603 fans who came out to support the squad, cheering them on and helping them achieve the victory.
Coach Christian Prokop was thrilled with the team’s performance, stating that they brought a lot of heart, passion, and fire to the floor. What was even more impressive was how well everything worked, especially in attack. Backcourt player Veit Mävers explained that they tried to play confidently but still presented the game with fire, and the fans did the rest.
Mävers played surprisingly well for the ailing Vlad Kulesh and scored five goals during the match. Even when Magdeburg took the lead ten minutes before the end, the TSV stayed cool under pressure. Prokop praised the team’s ability to keep their nerves despite the increasing pressure.
However, the team has little time to savor their success as they have another match coming up against TBV Lemgo on Sunday. Unfortunately, Mävers’ contract will not be extended at the end of the season, and he is hoping to make a change in the summer. Second division team ThSV Eisenach has expressed a strong interest in him, and according to BILD information, he may have already signed with Hanover and refused to extend his contract after the World Cup in Celje.
