||
Bietigheim managed to stay afloat for the first eight minutes of the game, but Esbjerg’s attacking prowess was unstoppable and the visitors opened up a seven-goal gap in the first half. The German side failed to mount a comeback in the second half, as Esbjerg used efficient fast breaks to clinch the first win of the season 33:26. GROUP A
Marred by injuries, including top goal scorer Estavana Polman who is out for seven months, Esbjerg only had 11 players on the sheet in the game against Bietigheim. But the depth was not a problem, with seven of their nine outfield players scoring at least once and propelling the Danish side to the most convincing win in the first round so far.
