HC Empor Rostock fails again in the promotion thriller – Meuser leaves!

HC Empor Rostock has once again missed its goal of promotion to the 2nd Handball Bundesliga. In the decisive promotion round, the team revealed weaknesses under coach André Meuser, who played his last game in the club's jersey, and failed at HC Oppenweiler/Backnang. After a narrow 27:26 win in the first leg, Empor clearly lost the second leg with 26:35. Above all, the guests' strong home performance and a decisive goal series of seven goals in a row turned the tide in favor of Oppenweiler/Backnang, who can therefore celebrate promotion. Matheus Costa Dias was the top scorer for Empor with eight goals.

The disappointment over the failure is palpable, as this was the fourth promotion round in the last six years for HC Empor, in which the team had to go home without promotion for the third time. ndr.de reports that ...
