An exciting handball encounter recently took place in the East Derby when BSV Sachsen Zwickau was finally able to celebrate its first win of the season in the handball Bundesliga. With a clear 30:23 against SV Union Halle-Neustadt, the team brought a touch of relief after a mixed season.
The game started brilliantly for the Zwickau team. They were already leading 6-2 in the 9th minute and pulled away early. But Halle-Neustadt was not so easy to shake off. After a time-out in which Halle's coach Ines Seidel called for more aggressiveness in defense, the team got into the game better. Nevertheless, the pressure on the Zwickau defense was noticeable, as Halle-Neustadt had five bad luck with the post and crossbar in the first quarter of an hour.
