Börde loses to Schaumburg: next fight for the derby victory!

Last Saturday there were exciting duels in the women's league. In a thrilling match, SG Börde suffered a bitter defeat against HSG Schaumburg. After a promising start, with Börde leading 1:4 after five minutes, the game turned against the guests. Shaumburg, who benefited from strong defense and effective attacking play, equalized to 13:13 after 20 minutes. This turn of events was the start of a difficult second half for Börde. Lena Holstein later criticized her team's many simple mistakes in attack and criticized the weak defense.

The Börde women played their best game in the first half. Strong defensive work and effective attacking play meant they were leading 6:11. But after 20 minutes the thread broke: a 6-0 run by HSG Schaumburg ensured that the halftime score was 13:13. In the second half, Börde returned with the desire to turn things around, but the defense remained vulnerable and technical errors increased. Playmaker Lilly Folger had to be substituted injured after about two minutes, but was fortunately able to return to the game later.

The decisive moment and the consequences

After 40 minutes, HSG Schaumburg was ahead 21:16, while Börde opened up larger spaces by switching to an offensive 3-3 defense, which Schaumburg exploited mercilessly. Finally, the game ended with a clear 33:24 for HSG Schaumburg. This means that the HSG remains in the race before the next home game against TV Cloppenburg, which takes place next Saturday at 6:30 p.m. Schaumburg took a break from training between the holidays, but has been active again for two weeks and can hope for reinforcements: Ferdinand Heldt has moved from Oberliga team HV Barsinghausen in order to strengthen the squad, as some players are out due to injuries.

Prospects for Börde

SG Börde now has an important game against MTV Peine. The team hopes to get two points there to gain confidence for the upcoming derby against Eintracht Hildesheim on February 8th. Börde is determined to learn from the last defeats and go into the upcoming games with fresh energy. The challenge will be to overcome the mistakes from the defeat against Schaumburg and to stabilize your own game.

The handball weekend in the region promises to remain exciting. While the Schaumburg men face TV Cloppenburg, the HSG second team also has an important game against SV Alfeld II. The coaching team around Max Gutzeit is set for a win to confirm the good performances from the first half of the season.
