Magdeburg on Nordic wings Magdeburg had a thrilling match in France, having and losing lead in the match couple of times. They celebrated the fourth win in a row in the EHF European League and three Nordic names are the reason why. Omar Ingi Magnusson and Christian O’Sullivan scored 16 times in total, first one scoring ten, including in crucial times when Magdeburg reduced the deficit and later took over. There was still hope for Montpellier at the end, but Dane Jannick Green woke up and saved the day with crucial saves. That’s the Nordic connection in the German team. TEXT: EHF / Danijela Vekić |
