Slugging It Out in Bucharest: Foxes Kept in Check by Dinamo
After a rough 26:30 defeat against Kiel in the Bundesliga, it looked like the Handball Foxes were set for another rough outing against Dinamo Bucharest in the European League. However, a stellar performance from goalkeeper Dejan Milosavljev (27) kept the team in the game and secured a narrow 33:32 (16:17) victory.
Milosavljev racked up an unbelievable 14 saves in the first half alone, a feat rarely achieved even after 60 minutes by other keepers. His heroics in the face of a cheesy defense that left much to be desired saved the day for the Foxes, who trailed the first half 16:17.
The offense started off strong with a four-goal lead (16:12), but sloppy play and missed chances squandered the lead, and the defense struggled to hold their own throughout the game. Rebounds repeatedly ended up in the hands of the Romanians, making it a tough game for the Berlin-based team.
Despite the defensive struggles, Milosavljev's performance was nothing short of sensational, saving the day with a total of 23 saves in the game. His heroics likely also pleased his fellow keeper Lasse Ludwig (21), who had a grueling week playing in the 2nd division with cooperation partner VfL Potsdam before joining the team for the match against Dinamo Bucharest.
The performance of Dejan Milosavljev was hailed by sports editor Jaron Siewert of Regio Sport Berlin, who noted that the 23 saves were the key to the Foxes' narrow victory against Dinamo Bucharest. The No-Sport-App kept Handball Berlin player Stefan Kretzschmar updated on the game while he was training with Dyn Handball, the development team. The victory and Milosavljev's performance may have boosted the morale of Lasse Ludwig, who had a demanding week before joining the team.
