Mrkva's heroics pave the way to Kiel’s historical miracle

QUARTER-FINAL REVIEW: THW turn nine-goals deficit against Montpellier in to ticket to Cologne with a 31:21


THW Kiel made history on Thursday night. “The chances to proceed are on five per cent,” said coach Filip Jicha after the 30:39 defeat in the first leg of the quarter-final at Montpellier last week, but his side grabbed the chance and made the miracle come true. Goalkeeper Tomas Mrkva was the hero in the final stages, when Kiel scored a 7:1 run to beat the French side 31:21.
