Overview
- Defending champion Veszprém overturned an 11–9 halftime deficit with decisive second-half runs, moving into the final.
- Magdeburg’s attack went cold during a 5–0 surge followed by a 7–1 spell, and a late offensive foul snuffed out a chance to equalize.
- Tim Hornke led Magdeburg with five goals, converting all five seven-meter throws, while Sergey Hernandez made key early saves.
- The game in Egypt’s New Capital Sports Hall drew roughly 600 spectators in a 7,500-seat arena and was shown in Germany exclusively on the paid service Dyn.
- The third-place match is scheduled for Thursday at 16:15 on Dyn after Veszprém repeated last year’s victory over Magdeburg.
