Following Montpellier and Göppingen’s lead, Schaffhausen are the next team from group A to secure their presence in the Last 16 of the EHF European League Men. The Swiss team could have done without winning tonight but booked their ticket in style thanks to a large win against Veszprém.

Benfica, on the other hand, will have to wait a little bit longer, as the Portuguese side lost in Göppingen and could still be matched by Presov in the two remaining rounds. The Slovakian side kept their hopes alive by inflicting Montpellier their first loss of the season and are now just two points behind the Lisbon team with two games left to play.
