Fivers Margareten won the first duel in the quarterfinals of the ZTE Handball Liga Austria with SC Ferlach thanks to a strong finish. The Viennese won at home on Saturday with 25:23 (10:12) and took a 1:0 lead in the “Best of three” series.
This means that the three-time champion can secure a place in the semi-finals in Carinthia next Saturday, which the Fivers have always reached since they were introduced in 2005.
Margareten was mostly behind until the final stages, but turned a 20:22 deficit into a narrow victory in the last five and a half minutes of the game.
