The bottom line was that the handball players from HT Munich celebrated a successful Bayernliga premiere as a newcomer with a 21:21 (10:11) in the home game against TSV EBE Forst United.
Taufkirchen / Unterhaching - Oliver Götsch's conclusion after the opening game against the Ebersbergerinnen, whom he valued highly, was a bit ambiguous.
"If I had been told beforehand that we would get a point against the Forst Ladies, I would have agreed," said the HT coach, but at least it annoyed him a little that his team had not rewarded themselves for a great performance: "After the game, I have to say that we deserved the two points." The Götsch team made a lightning start in the new division, went 4-0 in the front (9th) and held the guests until to 10: 6 (23rd) at a distance.
"We got into the game really well, we led quickly," said the coach, who was very satisfied with this early phase, but he also had to pay tribute to the opponent: "Forst United fought back." With five goals in a row in the final minutes In the first half, the Ebersbergerinnen even got the break lead.
However, the syndicate from Taufkirchen and Unterhaching was not impressed by this 10: 11 intermediate result.
The 11:12 (35th) was the last HT deficit in this game.
The hosts now managed to turn things around at 15:12 (43rd), but ultimately could not shake off the opponent decisively.
In the last five minutes, Forst United equalized three times, at 19:19, 20:20 and 21:21.
It goes without saying that Götsch was a little annoyed with this game: “We're almost always ahead in the second half, too.
With a little more experience and the famous little bit of luck, we will win. "
But this did not detract from his generally positive assessment of the Bayernliga start: “In terms of mentality, the will to win and the tactical implementation, I am very satisfied with our team.
Giulia Gaigl in goal was a strong support throughout the game and the whole team pushed each other. "
The backing of the 68 fans that were admitted may have contributed to this.
Götsch was happy about the end of the corona break: “After such a long dry spell, it was a great experience to see competitive handball again.
We all want more Bayernliga. "
