Overview

  • The reigning Champions League holders overwhelmed Berlin on the third Bundesliga matchday with a lopsided away win.
  • Reports list the final score as either 39:22 (Sportschau) or 39:32 (Bild/Sportbild), though all accounts describe a one‑sided contest.
  • Coach Bennet Wiegert praised “a real Magdeburg team” and cautioned supporters to stay humble this early in the season.
  • Wiegert said the plan was to win the start and choke off the Füchse fast game, which worked especially in the first half.
  • Omar Ingi Magnusson scored nine and Sergey Hernandez made 14 saves, as the defeat intensified scrutiny on a Berlin side already facing internal upheaval and fan whistles.
