Vektor 3,325 Posted December 8, 2019 #113 Share Posted December 8, 2019 The way things are going, I am getting less confident about us getting getting one of the ECh OQT spots. We might be doomed if Denmark beats Norway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cobi 979 Posted December 8, 2019 #114 Share Posted December 8, 2019 Halftime: 14-8 Come on, girls! A victory today would be very important to advance to SFs! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OlympicsFan 858 Posted December 8, 2019 #115 Share Posted December 8, 2019 Surprisingly dominant performance by Germany against the Netherlands today, Henk Groener is really doing an amazing job. I think a major reason why the Netherlands are so amazing in team sports (at least on the womens side) is that they have great coaches, Germany could learn a lot from them. It is kind of sad that Germany needs to hire a dutch coach to play successful handball again ... I think with one more win (hopefully against Serbia) Germany should be guaranteed at least the 3rd place in this group and the 6th place overall, but maybe this team can keep overperforming and qualify for the olympics right here, although of course Germany wouldn't be the favorite in a possible semifinal/final. I think there arent many team sports (on the womens side) where it is realistic for the reigning world (and european) champion to not even make the top 12 at world championships, but i am not sure whether this is a sign that the overall level in womens handball is very high? Attachment is the great fabricator of illusions; reality can be obtained only by someone who is detached. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vektor 3,325 Posted December 8, 2019 #116 Share Posted December 8, 2019 Damn, Spain was soooo close to secure their qualification into the SF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cobi 979 Posted December 8, 2019 #117 Share Posted December 8, 2019 Sweden completely destroyed us on the 2nd half and they managed to draw with one player less. It's a pity we didn't win this math considering we were 8 up, but it's still incredible that our team is competing against more talented teams. Good job, Guerreras!

Vektor 3,325 Posted December 8, 2019 #118 Share Posted December 8, 2019 I have to tell you, it's strange to root for some very specific teams (NED, NOR, SWE, ROU, RUS) just to get that OQT spot for us, which we don't deserve at all. What we need now is Netherlands to beat Denmark in the next round, that will be a really important match for us. Meanwhile we will play against France for the 13th place and I couldn't give less shit about that match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Despite is already assured of the OQT, I still hope we will finish top 4, because that gives us the right to host the OQT. We definitely need two wins out of two matches, otherwise it's impossible to finish ahead and . So @Vektor, I will cheer with you for the Netherlands :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vektor 3,325 Posted December 9, 2019 #120 Share Posted December 9, 2019 Wow, Serbia beat Germany, Group I is getting even more confusing. Denmark is in a pretty bad situation again, they have to draw at the very least against Nethelands or they won't reach the Top8, and won't be at the OQT.
