Hamburg vs Flensburg through the lens

The first half was a stalemate for the first 25 minutes and was not looking good for Flensburg, but Vranjes had a plan.

Flensburg stepped up a gear just before the break and an amazing free throw goal from Djordjic gave them the momentum.

Hamburg were stopped completely in their tracks as their rivals made light work of the first leg deficit and took the lead on aggregate.

HSV coach Martin Schwalb inspired his troops to get back into the game and fight for a place in the VELUX EHF FINAL4.

Hamburg regained their composure in the closing stages to reduce their loss on the night to 23:25 and win 55:51 on aggregate.
