Arnoldsen steers Aalborg to MOTW win, Barça victorious in Norway

DAY REVIEW: Barça win at Trondheim, Sporting have a victorious comeback and Paris almost stumble

The 2024/25 season of the Machineseeker EHF Champions League threw-off in Scandinavia – with different outcomes for the hosts - while Aalborg Handbold won the MOTW against HBC Nantes clearly 38:31 thanks to a splendid outing from Olympic champion Thomas Arnoldsen, Kolstad Handball lost 25:30 at home against defending champions Barça.

Later on, Sporting CP celebrated a victorious comeback to the EHF CL, beating Orlen Wisla Plock 34:29, with EHF EURO top scorer Martim Costa shining bright. Paris Saint-Germain Handball once again relied on last season’s Champions League top scorer Kamil Syprzak, taking the points against HC Eurofarm Pelister with 31:29.
