“Oppum faces crucial decision in upcoming handball match for league status”

However, the games in the Oberliga are not played at the same time, so the Oppumer already know how the competitor Aufderhöhe played before kick-off (8 p.m.) in the home game against TSV Kaldenkirchen. The Solingen team will meet Adler Königshof at 6 p.m. While Aufderhöhe surprisingly won 39:35 at TV Lobberich, the Adler surprisingly lost 31:32 against TuS Lintorf. However, it is clear that Oppum is relying on the neighborhood help from Königshof so that both clubs can again contest two attractive derbies in the new season. In addition, one must assume that the Bartmann squad will make amends after the disappointing performance at home against Lintorf in Solingen and want to end the season on a positive note. Should TSV Aufderhöhe only draw against the Adler or lose the game, Oppum would be relegated even before their own game. Should Solingen win, Oppum needs at least one point to stay in the Oberliga.

In the catch-up game in Mönchengladbach, Oppum was able to present himself well over 40 minutes. “We missed a few good chances in the first half and could have achieved an even better result. In the end, Borussia Mönchengladbach obviously has an incredible amount of potential and punishes every mistake you make. But we can come out of this encounter with a lot of self-confidence,” said Oppum’s managing director Frederick Küsters.

Oppum: Deil, Savonis – Krantzen, Dierkes (4), Zimmer (2), Danker (3), Küsters, Köffers (3/2), Dostal, Wolfhagen (10/1), Fenzel, Weidemüller (2), Fischer (3 ), Eickmanns (1).
