SG Zweibrücken is reaching for its fourth victory: fight against TV Offenbach!
The SG Zweibrücken handball players continue their impressive run. With three wins from three games, they got off to a perfect start in the new Regionalliga Südwest season Saarbrücken newspaper reported. Next Saturday at 6 p.m. they will face the bottom of the league, TV Offenbach, in the Westpfalzhalle, and the omens couldn't be better.
After a hard-fought away game against VTV Mundenheim, where the SG triumphed 29:26 due to better fitness in the second half, backcourt player Tim Eisel is optimistic. The 22-year-old, who scored seven goals in the match, highlighted the team's fighting performance, especially after a difficult start in the first half. “We were focused from the start,” Eisel is convinced. He also appreciates the trust that coach Martin Schwarzwald has placed in him and feels comfortable in his preferred backcourt position.
The duel against Offenbach
SG Zweibrücken goes into the game against Offenbach as league leaders, while the guests urgently need points. However, coach Martin Schwarzwald warns against TVO's unconventional 3:3 defense, which can often lead to difficulties for opposing teams. This requires a special focus on your own defense and the transition game in order to win the game. “We have to act with clarity and take advantage of the opportunities,” said Schwarzwald.
On the TV Offenbach side, Andreas Benz is a player who has scored 21 goals in the last two games. Even though the team has not been able to convince so far this season, the Zweibrücken team knows how dangerous their opponents are. The Mülheimers, for example, who invited the SG with firefighters to support them at the last duel, also announce serious concerns about relegation.
The look ahead
Fabian Abel and Martin Leufke will be missing due to injury, while Nico Gräber's appearance is still up in the air. Nevertheless, the strong squad gives hope that the series against Offenbach can be continued. “We want to continue the positive series and celebrate with the support of our fans behind us,” adds Eisel.
The SG is in high demand due to the impressive start to the season, especially after the successful revenge against HB Mülheim-Urmitz, where they won 29:26 after two defeats. This gives the team additional tailwind. With a strong defense and an accurate backcourt, as Eisel and his team are now demonstrating, the way to extending the winning streak could be paved, while TV Offenbach has to come up with all sorts of ideas to avert relegation worries, such as The Rhine Palatinate explained.
The tension is rising and the fans can look forward to a thrilling duel. The handball year is picking up speed and people in Zweibrücken are ready to take the next steps towards success. That is the spirit of the Regionalliga Südwest.
