Erst Kiel weggeputzt, dann Hannover niedergerungen – die Füchse sind heiß wie Frittenfett! Und jetzt? Der nächste Kracher: Aalborg!
Am Donnerstag (20.45 Uhr/Dyn) kämpfen die Berliner im Champions-League-Viertelfinale gegen den dänischen Topklub um den Einzug ins Final Four.
Superstar Mathias Gidsel (26) sagt: „Ich weiß, wir sind in der Liga in der Pole Position. Aber für mich zählt nur das nächste Spiel. Das ist so eine Riesenchance für uns. Wir spielen gegen Aalborg um das Final Four – und danach kümmere ich mich um die Meisterschaft.“
Der Welthandballer ist froh, dass sich die Mannschaft jetzt komplett auf die Champions League konzentrieren kann und zwischen den beiden Viertelfinal-Partien keine Bundesliga-Spiele bestreiten muss.
[–>Gidsel: „Ich finde das wirklich gut, dass wir die Möglichkeit haben. Wir müssen gucken, wie wir die richtigen Ergebnisse kriegen. Ich finde, wir haben eine gute Chance. Die Stimmung und die Atmosphäre hier – das ist unfassbar. Das bedeutet uns Spielern so viel. Das hilft uns. Das war wirklich ein Faktor gegen Hannover.“
Der Traum vom Final Four – für Gidsel nicht bloß ein Bonus, sondern ein Statement: „Ich finde, wir sind ein Weltverein. Wir sind ein Favorit für die deutsche Meisterschaft im diesen und auch im nächsten Jahr. Damit bist du einer der besten Klubs der Welt. Vielleicht kriegen wir nicht den Respekt, den wir bekommen müssten oder sollten. Aber wir haben gezeigt, dass wir eine der besten Mannschaften in Europa sind.“
Die Reaktion ist kaum zu fassen: Handball-Star kriegt Ball voll ins Gesicht
Und trotzdem warnt der Däne: Aalborg ist kein Selbstläufer! „Ich weiß, wie schwer sie zu schlagen sind. Es ist 500 Tage her, dass dort jemand gewonnen hat. Aber das ist eine Riesenchance – für uns, den Verein und die Hauptstadt Berlin.“
Auch in der Bundesliga sieht Gidsel seine Füchse auf Titelkurs – dank Teamwandel: „Letztes Jahr hatten wir Probleme auswärts. Dieses Jahr sind wir auch dort stark. Die Mentalität, die Kultur – das hat sich verändert. Jetzt sind wir ein richtiger Spitzenverein.“
Ostern hat der Füchse-Star übrigens mit seiner Familie gefeiert – aber erst nach dem Hannover-Spiel: „Sie sind am Freitag gekommen. Ich habe die Zeit noch nicht so mit ihnen genutzt, weil ich ein bisschen nervös war. Vielleicht kann ich mich jetzt ein bisschen entspannen und Ostern mit ihnen genießen.“

2025 NFL Draft Day 2 winners and losers: Steelers still need a QB; Shedeur Sanders’ free fall continues
Getty Images For the second straight day, the biggest story at the NFL Draft continues to be Shedeur Sanders. It wasn't a total shock to see him fall out of the first round on Thursday, but it was absolutely stunning to see him go undrafted on Day 2. There were a total of 70 picks made on Friday, and although three of them were quarterbacks, Sanders' name didn't get called. Yes, the free fall is continuing for Sanders, but he's not the only one who had a bad night. Let's go over our winners and losers from Friday. WINNERS CJ Stroud. It seems like the Texans' only goal in this draft was to make life easier for Stroud. After trading out of the first round, the Texans didn't get to make their first pick until Friday and they made the most of it. […]
NASCAR at Talladega: Where to watch, live stream, lineup, race preview, pick to win for the Jack Link’s 500
Getty Images LINCOLN, Ala. -- Of all racetracks across the globe where racers dare to go as fast as possible, none inspires more awe and produces a more awesome spectacle of speed than Talladega Superspeedway. Nestled in the forests of Alabama, Talladega sticks out as a massive asphalt battleground. Around its 2.66-mile length and up on top of its 33-degree banking, nowhere in the world do race cars go as fast as closely together as they do here.For the first time in 2025, the stars of the NASCAR Cup Series will screw their courage to the sticking place and try to stick at the front of the lead pack in the Jack Link's 500 at Talladega. With the field constantly three-wide and even four-wide inches apart at the highest speeds possible, Talladega is one of the most mentally demanding racetracks […]
Giants’ Brian Daboll was reportedly one coach who had negative experience with Shedeur Sanders
Getty Images As Colorado quarterback Shedeur Sanders continues his historical draft tumble, more details are emerging as to why this is happening. According to CBS Sports NFL insider Jonathan Jones, Sanders' slide is a reflection of how he carried himself through the pre-draft process. An unnamed coach even told NFL Media that his interview with Sanders was "the worst formal interview I've ever been in in my life," which leads to several other questions: Did Sanders struggle in every interview? Did he purposefully bomb interviews with teams he didn't want to go to? Todd McShay of The Ringer reported recently that Sanders' interview with the New York Giants and Brian Daboll was one that did not go well."Shedeur didn't have a great interview with Brian Daboll in a private visit," McShay said. "An install package came in. Preparation wasn't there for it. [He] […]

Jerry Jones blasts NFL after Shedeur Sanders snub: “I know what a winner he is”
Jerry Jones is outraged over the NFL's decision to pass on Shedeur Sanders in the draft. After the former Colorado star slipped to the third round of the 2025 NFL Draft, the Dallas Cowboys owner was quick to praise the young quarterback and question why teams overlooked him for so long. The Sanders saga began well before draft day. The former Buffaloes quarterback finished his college career as one of the top prospects, but as the weeks went by, his stock declined, and by draft day, his fate was among the most uncertain of the elite candidates. Rumors of character flaws and poor interviews with team executives severely damaged Sanders' reputation. Scouting reports highlighted issues such as inconsistent rhythm, a weaker-than-expected arm for an NFL starter, and below-average size for a professional quarterback. The first three rounds of the draft […]
