Schaffhausen (dpa / lsw) - The Rhein-Neckar Löwen missed a victory in their first game after the handball world championship.
In the group stage of the European League, the two-time German champions only managed a 30:30 (17:13) against the Kadetten Schaffhausen on Tuesday after a six-goal lead.
The match took place in Switzerland, where the second leg will take place on Wednesday.
National player Uwe Gensheimer was the Bundesliga club's top scorer with nine goals, who had to do without the three World Cup participants Andreas Palicka, Romain Lagarde and Albin Lagergren.
Only the two third division goalkeepers David Späth and Niklas Gierse were available in goal.
Nevertheless, the Lions dominated the first half and were now comfortably in the lead with 14: 8 (22nd minute).
After the 17:13 break, the North Baden team made a lot of false throws and could no longer find access to the defensive.
