Team Esbjerg clinches fourth consecutive Santander Cup victory

Team Esbjerg continues their incredible streak in the Santander Cup, a prestigious handball tournament. On Sunday, the women from Esbjerg claimed the championship for the fourth consecutive year with a dominant 31-25 victory over Odense Håndbold in the final, leading 16-10 at halftime.

A packed JYSK Arena in Silkeborg witnessed Odense keeping pace with Team Esbjerg through the first part of the opening half. However, Esbjerg pulled away decisively and never looked back. At one point, the reigning champions led by as much as ten goals.

Norwegian star player Henny Reistad was a standout performer for Esbjerg, scoring ten goals and earning the title of Player of the Match.

Despite a slight dip in their performance toward the end, Team Esbjerg remained in firm control, allowing Odense to reduce the margin slightly in the final minutes. Still, Odense never posed a real threat to Esbjerg’s victory.
