HBC Nantes wrote the best chapter of club’s history! The team of Thierry Anti is in Cologne for the first time as a part of “BIG 4” of European handball! The Danish Skjern Handbold had no power to make a classy performance which was necessary to beat their French rivals with more than 6 goals (first match 27:33). At the end was 27:27 (12:15) although domestic team had 22:18 20 minutes before the final buzzer.
However, Macedonian superstar in Nantes’ jersey called the end of crisis of his team with two goals, which again put visitors in the balance again. Skjern had no real chance to get back into the mood necessary for historical success.
Kasper Sondergaard netted eight goals for the home team, while Eduardo Gurbindo netted six for the lucky French team.
