When the second part of the EHF European League Men re-starts on Tuesday, HC Motor have a quite short trip to make as they face top team Füchse Berlin in the German capital.
Since last summer the Ukrainian champions found a new home - far away from their war-hit hometown - in Düsseldorf, Germany. Motor are part of the second German Bundesliga and compete in the European League, and most of the players are also part of the Ukraine national team, which is playing its EHF EURO 2024 qualification home matches on German ground.
