German Handball League - Eisenach's top scorer for the season, Zehnder, is crowned.
Manuel Zehnder ended the ThSV Eisenach season as the league's top scorer with 277 goals. In the 27-31 (13-15) defeat against Füchse Berlin during the Handball Bundesliga, Zehnder scored eight times, including a successful seven-meter attempt.
Following the match, Zehnder spoke with receiver Dyn, stating, "This season's top scorer recognition is very lovely, but it's certainly not a personal award for me. The amazing feats that this team has managed under Misha's coaching, no one could have predicted before this season."
Matthias Gidsel, Zehnder's main rival, was unable to participate in the game against Eisenach due to a minor injury sustained in training. Füchse coach Jaron-Siewert informed Dyn prior to the game, "He's got a slight training injury. It's not serious, nothing extreme, but given the Olympic Games are approaching, we'll be cautious with him today." Gidsel, meanwhile, has earned 263 goals this season.
With 3,150 spectators present, Eisenach dominated the first half, taking an impressive three-goal lead after just twelve minutes. Füchse Berlin responded with a timeout in the 20th minute, which prompted a brief comeback, culminating in a 15-13 half-time score for the guests. Eisenach continued to put up a fight in the second half, but their effectiveness on goal and control of the ball paled in comparison to their opponents.
