I would like to know a neutral opinion about it. Is it really Brazil being so aggressive in its defense or are the referees doing everything for Norway to win? :mumble:

A bit of a strange sport, similar to water polo. Referees can arbitrarily influence the outcome of the match through penalties.

I agree. There was a moment when the Norwegian player literally slipped and one of our players was sent off for 2 minutes. :lol:

 

Well, this team doesn't have any big ambitions in this tournament but had very good performances against Germany in friendlies and now Norway. Let's see what they can do in this tournament.

In a very close games with the teams are running head to head our sport is biased (unfortunately) by refs
will give you an example:
if the defender is defending while he is inside the 6 m it's a penalty (by book) .. but million times you  can see the defender is barely touching the line ...if the ref whistle for each touch, each attack will end with penalty.
now the biased part .. if the player now defending and touch the 6 m line, and the ref whistle a penalty ..it's not wrong ..actually it's right by the book ..if he whistle only a foul ..again it's most common and very normal in the sport ..the biased part when the ref whistle penalty for a team and whistle foul for the other team .. each decision alone is correct ..but combining them together is the problem..

the most famous biased game I have ever seen is :QAT vs :POL in WCh 2015 

 

to answer your question, the ref decisions were not wrong .. but usually in favour of one team over the other.

yesterday's results:

 

:CZE VS :SUI 17 -17 @rafalgorka how on earth you expected a tie :thumbup: .. in Handball we never expect something like that even the teams are even ..good one mate 

:EGY VS :ARG 39-25 expected win but 14 goals different is a surprise ..3 red cards for :ARG didn't help the team in defense ..the 2nd red card is very bad, 80s -90s style  

:NED VS :GUI  40-23 very easy game for :NED 

:POR VS :USA  30-21 good game from USA.gif , I am expecting :POR were not playing so hard

:CRO VS :BRN 36-22 another expected results, the 3rd game of this group will be the decider who will be in first place between :EGY  and :CRO 

:GER VS :POL  35-28 first half was brilliant, very fast handball .. great goal keeping specially from :POL GK .. but the polish defending on pivot was horrible .. 2nd half was purely for :GER 

:HUN VS :MKD 27-27 very good game from :MKD , :HUN was playing very poor yesterday

:NOR VS :BRA 26-29 the biggest surprise so far, :BRA team deserved the win despite some debatable decisions from the ref, beating :NOR at home is a great results.. but could :BRA continue with the same performance .. consistency is their biggest problem

 

 

today's games:

 

:ITA VS :ALG

:KUW VS :FRA

:SLO VS :CUB

:ESP VS :CHI 

:AUT VS :QAT

:ISL VS :CPV

:SWE VS :JPN

    • 4-3  over  at the break, Norway with hammer.
    • whatever you heard is just speculation. no one knows at the moment, probably even the orange himself.   and Iranian athletes failed to get visa so many times before. even female athletes. there is no pattern, it's just too random.    and yes Iran has a system of compulsory military service for men, and there is 50% chance for anybody to be randomly drafted by IRGC affiliated organizations. that's the case for Taremi and few others in the current team.  
    • Would you believe the NCAA Indoor season has already started?      
    • Some changes that I've noticed:   3x3 Basketball: With the expanded 12 team field, one extra team per gender qualifies through world rankings, one extra team qualifies through the universality driven tournament and there's now an Olympic Qualifier series to award the final quotas.   Beach Volleyball: Continental qualifiers have have priority over the World championship and World Rankings quotas and there's now Olympic Qualifier Series quotas.   Canoe Sprint: World ranking system now in place and will be used instead of awarding world championship quotas. Road Cycling: 2 nations ranking quotas per gender moved to universality.   Track Cycling: Sprint and Keirin ranking list is now combined and will award 14 quotas per gender. Previously it was 7+7. Team pursuit down to 8 quotas from 10. 2 of the quotas have been moved to madison (one additional team) and 6 to the omnium.   Fencing: Can get a Continental quota of you finished in the top 24 of the rankings. It was previously top 16.    Hockey: 2 pro league quotas replace two qualification tournament quotas.   Judo: 5 less universality places and 4 more Continental places. For men, there's two more spots for Asia, one less for Oceania and 1 more for the Americas. For the women, there's one more spot for Europe, one less for Oceania and two more for Asia.   Modern Pentathlon: Less quotas awarded through world rankings as a result of quota cuts.   Open Water Swimming: Introduction of world ranking qualifier.   Sailing: In general, seems to be more quotas awarded at the last chance regatta and less quotas at the World Championships   Shooting: One less quota handed out at each World Championship and the return on World Cup qualifiers.   Swimming: Olympic qualification and consideration times renamed to A and B standard. B standard is now 1% slower than the A standard compared to 0.5% in 2024. Stroke 50s have their own direct qualification events and have minimum time standards instead of A and B standards. Qualification times have been nuked again. B standard selection process has also changed.   Volleyball: New revised format. Continental championships first, then world championships followed by world rankings. In 2024, it was 3 qualification tournaments and then world rankings. Only 3 countries per gender will qualify by world rankings now compared to 5 in 2024
    • For Italy, the match against Japan and likely the final match against Estonia will be a safe/relegation game, but I'm think that whether the match against Estonia will be decisive on anything, if we have 0 points after 4 matches. We're currently the worst team here – we have 0 points and are taking significantly fewer shots than our opponents in each match. Japan and Estonia are looking better for now and unfortunately, without significant improvement play starting tomorrow, we'll likely be relegated to the fourth division. With the absence of Russia and Belarus, this will be a shame, even for the weaker 2006/2007 age generation. Especially, since we are playing this tournament at home. For anyone could have competed with a good shape, except perhaps Hungary, who are currently the best team in the tournament.
    • They shouldn't promise additional spots to countries that qualify 3 athletes in each distance, because then taking those spots away isn't fair. For example, in Italy, Previtali won the 500m QO for country but he would likely have to stay at home because the staff probably would have chosen Casinelli for the relay (Casinelli won't be competing individually at all). I don't know what the situation is in Canada with the fifth-place skater? Will this person only compete in the relay, or will he also be a reserve there? 
    • That's too bad. Athletes who finish in the top 32 (or 36 for the 1590m) should be the priority over the 5th athlete from a relay country.   So Croatia loses their 2nd women's quota, Hong Kong loses their only women's quota and Poland loses their 3rd women's quota.   This means that Great Britain, Slovakia and Ukraine should fill up the rest of the 1500m field since they are the highest placed reserves that doesn't require an additional quota.    
    • Philip Rivers' possible return to NFL while being a semifinalist for the Hall of Fame certainly wasn't on my bingo card. But well. So far he's only on the practice squad
    • Thursday December 11th, 2025 - Round-Robin Day 4 Schedule (GMT +1)   12:30   Austria vs Ukraine 16:00   Norway vs Kazakhstan 19:30   Slovenia vs France
