SCM remain unbeaten in the Champions League. Against Zagreb, an increase in tempo in the second half is enough to make things clear.

Defending champions SC Magdeburg remain unbeaten in the Champions League. Against the Croatian representative HC Zagreb, the Magdeburg team won 27:22 (10:9) in front of 6,098 spectators, their seventh win in seven games. The best SCM scorer was Sebastian Barthold with six goals.

Magdeburg's Matej Mandic started in goal against his former club and made a good save. SCM struggled in attack - but still took an early lead. Coach Bennet Wiegert gave captain Christian O'Sullivan playing time in defense and opted for Philipp Weber instead of Felix Claar in attack. The SCM needed time to get into the game, but built a three-goal lead (8:5/19). However, Zagreb reduced the deficit to one goal by the break.

Claar brings pace and preliminary decision

After the break, Magdeburg dispensed with the change of specialists and brought on Claar instead of Weber in attack and O'Sullivan in defense. That injected more pace into the offense and SCM stretched its lead to five goals after a 4:0 run. Magdeburg then went five minutes without scoring and Zagreb was unable to reduce the deficit significantly. Magdeburg's Oscar Bergendahl was shown the red card after video evidence for a hit to the face (42') - but Magdeburg easily wrapped up the win.
