Germany: Turbine Potsdam wins third straight title
For the entire second half of the season, it was a close race between Potsdam and Frankfurt.

Germany: Potsdam and Frankfurt show no weaknesses
Now there are only two games left to play, and still neither Potsdam nor Frankfurt are showing any weaknesses. Both teams dominated their games and won very evidently.

Two goals before halftime led the way, and after the break they demolished their relegation endangered opponent. Japanese international Yuki Nagasato scored a hat trick within 22 minutes. Final score was 7-0. (more…)
