History repeated itself when Aalborg Handball on Thursday evening secured their third successive Danish championship title with a 35-31 win against Skanderborg AGF in the second of their final playoff series.
With a 30-29 victory in the bag from the first final match in Aalborg, the visitors knew that another win in the return leg would hand them the Danish title.
The triumph will boost the morale for the defending champions when they head to the Lanxess Arena in Cologne next week to take part in the Champions League Final Four, where they will face Barcelona in the semi-final.
