Lazarov and Barca with great win in Flensburg

SG Flensburg Handewitt - FC Barcelona 33:37 (16:16)

In a marvellous performance, Barça beat the defending European champions, Flensburg, the side that knocked them out of the competition at the semi-final stage last season. Lazarov, with ten goals, was the star of a game that sets the Catalans up very nicely for a place in the next round.

Neither side was able to make any kind of break in the first half, which ended 16:16, and things were still right going into the final stages of the game, when a 4:1 streak for Barça finally put some space between the two teams at 25:29. From then on it was a case of maintaining that four-point cushion, which particularly meant containing Kaufmann, who led the German attack in the final moments. But Barça kept their nerve and the win keeps them joint top of the group along with KIF Kolding of Denmark.
