After ten minutes the total blackout began
SC Magdeburg took the lead 1-0 after exactly one minute, which Azat Valiullin equalized 40 seconds later. After falling behind again, Dani Baijens scored to make it 2-2 in the 3rd minute, which was to be the last tie of the game. With two quick goals, Magdeburg moved ahead 4-2 in the 4th minute. The Handball Sport Club Hamburg kept up until 6:8 (10th), with an underhand throw by Baijens. The SCM then punished every failed attempt and error in Hamburg’s attack with high speed, so that when coach Torsten Jansen’s first team time-out it was already 6:10 (14th). After Azat Valiullin made it 7:10 (16th), Magdeburg turned on the turbo and literally overran Hamburg with a 7:0 run to make it 19:7 (22nd). Here in the middle of the second half at 7:13, substitute Sergey Hernandez Ferrer played a big role with his eight saves for the luckless Nikola Portner (one save). Jansen’s second time out – “You have a withdrawal behavior like Jansen’s grandfather” – didn’t change anything. From the seven-meter line, Hamburg’s goal scorer, Casper Ulrich Mortensen, hit the opponent’s goal with his first throw to make it 8:19 (22nd). The guests’ attack then continued to roll and could not be stopped. So HSV Hamburg went into the dressing room with their heads hanging low and a depressing 9:27.
“I can hardly say anything about this first half. It worked very, very well at SC Magdeburg. We were at least within reach until 6:10. And after that we just don’t score any more goals at the front and we’re in a bad way when we’re retreating, I just have to say that. That is not enough. Not against any opponent and especially not against SC Magdeburg as the top European team. And if you move back so lethargically, then you’ll get one after the other,” said coach Jansen, explaining the actually inexplicable 20 minutes of almost no resistance. SCM goalkeeper Sergey Hernandez drove Hamburg to despair with 18 saves

Second half with 19:16 a little cosmetic result
The Hamburg team came back onto the pitch with a different body language; it seemed as if Toto Jansen had made the announcement after the debacle of the first half to start from scratch and at least win the second in order to win back the fans a little. Frederik Bo Andersen and Mortensen scored to make it 11:27 (32nd) and Johannes Bitter also came into contact with the ball. During this phase, Jacob Lassen was so unfortunate in the attack that he couldn’t get back onto the field. An open exchange of blows developed, still very dynamic. With two goals from Mortensen and one from captain Niklas Weller, three goals in a row made it 16:31 (40th). The goals fell on both sides like ripe fruit, constantly changing. In the end, HSV Hamburg won at least the second half with 19:16, even if it didn’t change the tough 28:43 defeat in the end.
“After the shittiest situation you could ever have at half-time, we can still say that we said goodbye to the spectators properly. We then put everything into it and also put the pedal to the metal in defense. Looking ahead to the second half, we can at least leave the hall with our heads held high and have not allowed ourselves to be slaughtered,” Jansen said somewhat forgivingly.
Now it’s time to quickly wipe your mouth, put the evening away and forget about the game in Lemgo on Saturday.
The Handball Sport Club Hamburg played in the following line-up:
Johannes Bitter, Jens Vortmann – Casper Ulrich Mortensen (8/3), Leif Tissier (1), Jacob Lassen (2), Niklas Weller (3), Frederik Bo Andersen (1), Alexander Hartwig, Tomislav Severec, Thies Bergemann, Torge Wloch, Zoran Ilic (3), Azat Valiullin (3), Dani Baijens (7)
