THW Kiel has once again shown its dominant form in the main round of the EHF European League. In front of their home crowd, the German record champion defeated the Spanish representative Bidasoa Irun. The evening was particularly emotional for goalkeeper Andreas Wolff, who delivered an outstanding performance on his 35th birthday and significantly contributed to the success.
In the first leg in Spain, the Kiel team had already shown a strong team performance, and they carried this momentum into the second leg in their home arena. During the match, there was a notable gesture of fair play: A Kiel player helped an injured opposing player leave the field, which was met with loud applause from the spectators.
On the sporting side, THW remained focused. Led by a stable defense and the reflexes of the birthday boy Wolff, the 'Zebras' left little doubt about their home victory. With this success, the club solidifies its top position in the main round group and takes a big step towards the quarter-finals of the European competition.
