Erlangen slips on Tiger ice: dramatic home defeat against Göppingen!
Yesterday, on September 6th, 2025, HC Erlangen suffered a narrow defeat against FA Göppingen in the Daikin Handball Bundesliga. The game, which took place in the Nuremberg Arena, turned into a real thriller, but the Erlangen team ultimately had to admit defeat 28:29. An annoying setback for the team, which continues to present itself strong and motivated in the new season, as can be read on the official homepage.
What was particularly tricky for the players was the risk of slipping on the laminate floor that was placed over the ice. These circumstances meant that helpers had to use large wipers to dry out the wet interfaces during the game. The slippery surface was not ideal, which was particularly noticeable in the intense final phase of the game - Göppingen turned the match around in the final minutes and put Erlanger in trouble.
The best players
The best players of the encounter were Viggó Kristjánsson on the Erlanger side, who scored nine goals, and Marcel Schiller, who contributed eight goals for Göppingen. A strong game that still didn't bring the spectators the victory they wanted and left Erlangen with the bitter pill of home defeat.
Another game took place at the same time: TVB Stuttgart won 35:28 against Bergischer HC. The newly formed team led by coach Misha Kaufmann showed who was in charge right from the start. Kai Häfner was Stuttgart's best scorer with eight goals - this game also caused a lot of conversation among handball fans.
The path of HC Erlangen
HC Erlangen, which was formed in 2001 from the merger of CSG Erlangen and HG Erlangen, celebrated its first promotion to the handball Bundesliga in the 2014/15 season, but was only able to last one season. Two years later, the team was crowned champions of the 2nd Bundesliga and achieved promotion to the upper house again.
To this day, the Erlangen team plays in the PSD Bank Nürnberg Arena, which can accommodate over 8,000 spectators and provides an atmospheric backdrop for home games.
Aside from the exciting game situations, the great fans create an exciting atmosphere. Those responsible would still like to celebrate many victories this season. If you want to find out more about the current games and the team, we recommend the official homepage.
