Magdeburg does not put up a fight in the East derby in Eisenach and wins from start to finish. Eisenach made too many mistakes against the understrength champions.

SC Magdeburg won the East derby in Eisenach and picked up important points in the battle for the German handball championship. 2,800 spectators in the sold-out Werner-Aßmann-Halle saw a clear 36:26 (18:12) victory for the defending champions.

Magdeburg's best scorers were Felix Claar and Matthias Musche with nine goals each. Marko Grgic was the most successful for Eisenach with ten goals. Magdeburg remains just one point behind leaders Melsungen with nine minus points.

Magdeburg was again without Gisli Kristjansson and Omar Ingi Magnusson and had to make do with just one formation at the back. Claar in particular took responsibility and scored the first four SCM goals.

Weak shooting percentage by Eisenach

Eisenach missed too many shots early on and its shooting percentage was below 30 percent at times. The home side then worked its way into the game, but Magdeburg took a clear lead into the break after stepping up the pace.

Both teams began the second half with a lot of dynamism. Magdeburg played with concentration in defense and attack, while Eisenach made more mistakes. As a result, SCM's lead grew to eight goals.

The home side then improved in defense again and reduced the deficit to five goals (21:26/47). However, it did not get any closer, as Magdeburg brought the game to a close with all its experience. After the international break, SCM welcomes Füchse for the top game, while Eisenach travels to Stuttgart.
