Men's Handball IHF World Championship 2025


Recommended Posts

Yesterday results:

the day of thrill and surprises

 

Group III

 

:ESP VS :POR29-35, the surprise is not just the result or :ESP has been eliminated, actually the performance of :POR was very great not only in this game but in the whole tournament, the great thing about :POR they can score from all positions, back side, wings, pivot, penetration and fast breaks.. as a handball ex-player and fan I really like this team and wish they continue like that 

:SWE VS :BRA 24-27, another huge surprise for one of the trams ( :BRA ) if they believe themselves they can be at least in the top 8 every tournament (and first not to lose the pan American championship).. I saw only the highlights but a major observation that :SWE never get ahead in the game and the only draw was 1-1 !!.. I like the personality of :BRA when the gap reduced from 5 goals to 20-19 near the end but :BRA acted as a big team and increased the gap again. Another team I would love to see them usually in the top eight 

:CHI VS :NOR 22-39, easy game with no actual resistance 

 

GROUP IV

 

:ARG VS :CPV 30-26, :ARG Secured their first win in the main round, but being honest the team was stronger in the last two championship :CPV can be an important figure in African handball and we may see them more frequently on the podium with silver or bronze (currently :EGY is dominating the continent by far)

:EGY VS :SLO 26-25, first I want to show this number (11-20) this is the number of turnovers in the game!!! :SLO did 20!!! When I was playing u 15 and our team do 20 turnovers in a game the next day we would be punished with tough training and exercises (when we were 16 years old and above we never do 20 turnovers in a game!!)

referees were a key factor in the game with 3 imaginary penalties for :SLO keeping them in the game when the gap start increasing (left back jump from 8 m hitting 2 :EGY defenders with 2 cases are obviously offensive foul and one normal foul for :SLO but refs intentionally gave penalties)… then at min 29:58 in 2nd half they balanced their decision by giving an offensive foul against :SLO in an action never ever being awarded as offensive foul. Anyway, :EGY secured qualification as 2nd to face :FRA with rare opportunity to be first

:CRO VS :ISL 32-26, :CRO The home team finally found the pace and win by more than 5 goals to be in the safe side in the head to head between :CRO:EGY:ISL and if :CRO beat :SLO in the last game they will be heading the group

 

standing:

:POR 7 qualified 

:BRA 6 qualified 

:NOR 4

:SWE 4

:ESP 3

:CHI 0

 

Group IV

You are absolutely right

and I didn’t see great potential in your u21 or u19 teams 

you need to build up a new generation with good coaching school (I recommend spanish or french as it matches more your way of playing and body shape)

 

Brazil and even Chile are doing well now and the gap will grow even bigger

After discussing with some friends close to IHF

the ref whistle passive play after :SLO did the 5th pass (the new rule the team should have max of 4 passes after the ref announces passive)
