Overview
- SG Flensburg-Handewitt beat TBV Lemgo Lippe 39:30 to record a fourth win in four Bundesliga matches and extend their perfect start to the season on Thursday.
- Simon Pytlick led the attack with nine goals while goalkeeper Benjamin Buric had nine saves by half-time and Marko Grgic also supplied key contributions.
- The result ended Flensburg’s five-year winless run in Lemgo, with the team taking control from the opening minutes and building a 19:13 half-time lead.
- Lemgo captain Tim Suton left the match seven minutes before the end with a suspected serious knee injury, creating immediate fitness uncertainty for the hosts.
- The table position is temporary because THW Kiel and SC Magdeburg still have fourth fixtures to play this weekend and could reclaim or match Flensburg’s place.
