With a demonstration of power, THW Kiel started their next “Mission Cologne” in the Machineseeker EHF Champions League. Beating Elverum Handball in the first MOTW of the season meant a perfect start for Kiel and an expected result for the Norwegian champions.

On Kiel’s side, Norwegian international Harald Reinkind was the top scorer with six goals and was awarded Player of the Match. Elverum have now lost all three matches against Kiel and still have never taken a point against a German team.
