Spandau's water polo players win 13:10 at ASC Duisburg
The Spandau 04 water polo team won their away game of the 5th first league matchday of Group A at ASC Duisburg 13:10 (6:3,3:2 - 2:3,2:2). With this success, the record champions remain without a point loss (10:0) and are hot on the heels of Waspo Hannover. The Lower Saxons only have a better goal difference. For Spandau's manager Peter Röhle, it was the "first real fortune teller as far as the championship is concerned".
Duisburg, who won the championship and cup double in a duel with Spandau in 2016, were committed and put up a strong fight, but ultimately had no real chance of victory against the Berliners. The visitors were 6:3 in front after the first quarter, with the Croatian Marin Tomasovic (21) scoring a flawless hat-trick to make it 3:0 within a minute and a half. Spandau went in at half-time with a 9:5 advantage and, after the break, the capital city team played out an evenly poised 13:10 victory.
