The in-form Bundesliga handball team ThSV Eisenach is aiming for a major coup in the DHB Cup Final Four. "We're two rounds away from the big dream of making it to Cologne. Everyone is particularly keen," manager René Witte told the "Thüringer Allgemeine" newspaper. The Thuringians will face SC DHfK Leipzig in the round of 16 on Wednesday (7.30 p.m./Dyn). The final tournament of the four best teams will take place in Cologne in mid-April.
Eisenach is playing at home in the cup for the first time in a long time. "It's the game of the year for us. That's why we have a lot planned. One thing I can already say: It will be the biggest choreo ever seen in the arena," said Witte. Eisenach won both league duels with Leipzig last season.
