With his one and only goal in 60 minutes, Rubén Marchán secured MT Melsungen’s ticket to the Winamax EHF Finals 2026. Forty-five seconds before the end, the Spaniard netted for 19:23 at FC Porto – and after winning the reverse fixture 28:23, the German side qualified for the final tournament of the EHF European League for the second time after 2025. As SG Flensburg-Handewitt, THW Kiel and Montpellier Handball had already clinched their berths for the Winamax EHF Finals 2026, the same four teams as last year will compose the event on 30/31 May. The draw for the semi-finals will be conducted on Friday 8 May, 11:00 CEST (live on EHFTV).
