Magdeburg Focuses on Zagreb Champions League Home Test Wednesday

Coach Bennet Wiegert prioritizes Champions League points, warning against Zagreb's strong pivots.

Overview

  • SC Magdeburg hosts RK Zagreb on Wednesday, November 12, with throw-off scheduled around 20:45.
  • Magdeburg leads Group B unbeaten after six games, while Zagreb sits last without a point.
  • Wiegert cautions that nothing comes easy at this level and says the team will not look ahead to the weekend trip to Flensburg.
  • The coach highlights Zagreb's circle play as a primary threat and notes the Croatian champion's strong domestic form, including a recent 40:27 win over HRK Gorica.
  • Goalkeeper Matej Mandic, who joined Magdeburg from Zagreb in August, describes the matchup as very emotional as Wiegert adds the squad is still rebuilding full rhythm after the international break.
