Lasse Andersson was already in Switzerland in February. He made a guest appearance with Berlin in the group stage of the European League at Scout Winterthur. The Brühler NLA team used the event for a team outing and attended the game. The idea was actually that Lasse Andersson wanted to visit the Brühlerinnen on Wednesday when they played at Yellow in Winterthur as part of the NLA final round. Nothing came of it because of the corona-related cancellation of the game. However, Lasse Andersson insisted on dropping in on the Brühler women.

Fingers crossed in Berlin

His training visit this week was a surprise for the Brühl players. In addition to a relaxed exchange, the highly decorated national player also had one or the other handball tip ready for the Brühler women. Lasse Andersson wishes the team of his brother Nicolaj, who is six years his senior, every success for the rest of the season and he promised to keep his fingers crossed from Berlin for the upcoming title decisions.
