With the German club being the only one with a perfect record in the EHF European League group stage, Fredrikstad Ballklubb provided a stern test, but HSG Bensheim/Auerbach Flames prevailed and continued their faultless run. Even though the hosts led throughout the match, Maja Eiberg Jørgensen & co. put pressure on the Flames and kept them on their toes until the final whistle, with the Norwegian centre back scoring nine goals and being the match's top scorer.
