DAY REVIEW: Barça and Kielce easily took their first points of the season, while Nantes and Szeged were shocked on home ground
The second day of round 1 in the Machineseeker EHF Champions League 2025/26 saw goal fests, HBC Nantes missing the chance to avenge the lost 2024/25 semi-final against Füchse Berlin and another home defeat in the Szeged versus Plock record.
On the other hand, Barça and Kielce showed dominant performances on home ground, against two Scandinavian teams. Melvyn Richardson and Mathias Gidsel imprinted Thursday night’s action with 12 and 10 goals, respectively.
