What a thriller, what a match, what a result: after 120 minutes and two quarter-finals, SC Magdeburg and Industria Kielce were on a fully equal level. Following Kielce’s 27:26 win at home last week, the defending champions struck back with a 23:22 victory, and the first penalty shootout in a Machineseeker EHF Champions League quarter-final since 2010 was needed to decide the ticket to Cologne.

With each team having taken five penalties, the result was still equal. But then Magdeburg’ goalkeeper Sergey Hernandez saved Dylan Nahi’s shot and Ómar Ingi Magnusson netted. That gave Magdeburg a 4:3 win in the penalty shootout, and the GETEC arena went crazy. As in the 2023 final of the TruckScout24 EHF FINAL 4, after overtime, Magdeburg had beaten Kielce and remain in the race to defend their trophy.
