After Germany’s Borussia Düsseldorf and Austria’s SolexConsult TTC Wiener Neustadt Germany’s TTC Neu-Ulm becomes the third club to secure a spot in the Champions League Final 4 (scheduled for March 31st and April 1st in Saarbrücken) with four wins in the Stage 2 Group phase. Tonight they notched their second victory against Poland’s KS DARTOM BOGORIA Grodzisk Mazowiecki.
The Polish club had been the only adversary to put Germany’s stars severe pressure in the Champions League during their duel at the end of last month. In the opening leg they forced a full-distance match where Dimitrij OVTCHAROV (12th in the world rankings) and Quadri ARUNA (16th) lost their duels against Takuya JIN and Milosz REDZIMSKI. However tonight’s match unfolded far from that scenario. In a furious style the favorites sealed this phase of the competition with a decisive victory in straight matches. Additionally all three matches concluded in straight games.
Czechia’s club HB Ostrov remains without a win in the group.
