Fußball-Derby in Leipzig-Leutzsch. Dort trifft die BSG Chemie am Sonntag (14 Uhr) auf den FC Lok. Zwei Stunden später knallt es auch in der Quarterback Immobilien Arena los.
Dort trifft der SC DHfK in der Handball-Bundesliga auf den SC Magdeburg, den Noch-Meister. Der will seinen Titel gern verteidigen, könnte aber ausgerechnet bei den kriselnden Leipzigern (nur drei Punkte in der Rückrunde) stolpern.
Handball: SC Magdeburg droht in Leipzig Titel-Verstolperer
Denn von den letzten vier Spielen in Leipzig konnte der SCM nur eins für sich entscheiden. In der letzten Saison gab es ein Remis. Kreisläufer Moritz Preuss (30), der bis 2022 beim SCM spielte: „Ein Derby ist immer besonders. Es wird eine unangenehme Aufgabe für Magdeburg, die solche Spiele im Kampf um den Titel gewinnen müssen.“
<!–>
Wird Leipzig zum Titel-Stolperer für Magdeburg?
Preuss: „Es muss schon ganz viel passen. Zu keiner Zeit dürfen wir den Kopf in den Sand stecken.“ Und auch der SCM muss liefern, der mit elf Minuspunkten schon zwei Zähler mehr hat, als die Top-Konkurrenz um den Titel (Füchse, Hannover). Ein Ausrutscher wäre da fatal.
[–>Warum wird es in Leipzig so eklig für den Favoriten?
Trainer Runar Sigtryggsson: „Kaum einer rechnet damit, das wir etwas holen. Die Mannschaft hat nichts zu verlieren, das kann Kräfte freisetzen. Ich erhoffe mir eine besondere Leistung.“
Böller-Skandal in Belgrad: Pyro-Attacke auf deutschen Handball-Europameister
6000 Fans (rund 1000 aus Magdeburg) werden die ausverkaufte Halle zum Tollhaus machen. Und bis auf Matej Klima (Aufbautraining nach Knieverletzung) hat die DHfK alle Spieler an Bord. Geschäftsführer Karsten Günther: „Es wird ein absoluter Handballfesttag.“
Und zu einer großen Herausforderung für den Favoriten aus Magdeburg.

Senators stay alive as Jake Sanderson strikes in OT: Game 4 takeaways
OTTAWA — The Battle of Ontario is heading back to Toronto.In front of another rollicking crowd that featured more blue and white than Game 3, goals from Tim Stützle, Shane Pinto, David Perron and an overtime winner from Jake Sanderson helped the Ottawa Senators keep their season alive with a desperate and spirited 4-3 OT win to force Game 5.AdvertisementWith both a short-handed and power play goal, the Senators did well to win the special teams battle that the Leafs had previously won all series.Leafs goalie Anthony Stolarz looked average for the first time all series, allowing four goals on just 22 shots.While the Leafs had flashes of brilliance, including Matthew Knies’ incredible second-period breakaway goal, the Senators stayed consistent in their play in a way the Leafs did not.

Buccaneers undrafted free agent could make history as the heaviest NFL player ever
Getty Images If there was an award for most interesting undrafted free agent signings, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers would certainly be in the running to win. Not only did Todd Bowles sign Deion Sanders' other son in Colorado safety Shilo Sanders, but Tampa Bay is also adding someone who has a chance to be the heaviest player in NFL history. Florida defensive tackle Desmond Watson, who stands at 6-foot-5, 464 pounds, is signing with the Buccaneers on a deal that includes $50,000 guaranteed per NFL Media. USA Today reports that Watson has already dropped weight, and lost about 26 pounds since Florida's pro day on March 27. Even so, Watson would be the heaviest player to suit up for an NFL team. In four seasons with the Gators, Watson recorded 63 combined tackles, four tackles for loss and 1.5 sacks to go […]

49ers’ Malik Mustapha to miss start of season with knee injury: Source
SANTA CLARA, Calif. — San Francisco 49ers fifth-round draft pick Marques Sigle might have a better-than-expected shot at a prominent role this season after it was revealed that one of last year’s top safeties is recovering from a serious knee injury.ESPN reported Saturday that Malik Mustapha, who started 12 games as a rookie in 2024, damaged the graft that was used to repair an ACL tear he sustained while at Wake Forest in 2022. Mustapha is believed to have suffered the injury in the 49ers’ season finale against the Arizona Cardinals on Jan. 5. He left that contest in the second quarter and didn’t return.AdvertisementWhile the injury isn’t considered as severe as a complete rupture, which can affect the meniscus in the knee, he’s still expected to be out until roughly the midpoint of the season, a league source confirmed.

Chargers 2025 NFL Draft takeaways: Major focus on adding playmaking around Justin Herbert
As the Los Angeles Chargers wrapped up their 2025 draft with six Day 3 picks, a theme came into very clear focus: This draft, more than anything else, was about putting more playmaking around Justin Herbert.The Chargers drafted a running back in the first round in Omarion Hampton who has the potential to alter the fabric of their offensive identity. They drafted a ball-winning outside receiver in the second round in Tre Harris. They double-dipped at receiver in the fifth round by adding speedy deep threat KeAndre Lambert-Smith. Seven picks later, the Chargers traded up for athletic pass-catching tight end Oronde Gadsden II. Weapon, weapon, weapon and another weapon. All before the end of the fifth round. General manager Joe Hortiz and coach Jim Harbaugh built around their quarterback.AdvertisementHerbert had one reliable option in the passing game last season in […]
