Esbjerg hold off CSM in late drama

Team Esbjerg remain solid on home court, snatching a one-goal win against CSM Bucuresti in the first leg of the EHF Champions League quarter-finals


For the fourth time in five years, Team Esbjerg defended their home court against CSM Bucuresti in the quarter-finals of the EHF Champions League Women. The competition’s top scorer, Henny Reistad, once again led the Danish side to a 26:25 win, leaving CSM empty-handed ahead of the return leg. It was Esbjerg’s seventh overall win against the Romanian club, who have only managed three victories on Danish soil — all coming in the group phase and main round in previous seasons.
