Congrats Hungary for win and for QF. We had few too easy mistakes, without them this match would be very close, but still Hungary is better team.

 

Overally I'm glad of our performance at this tournament, we almost beat Spain which was very unexpected, considering how we played in recent years. Team is promising and should do well in next years, especially in World Champs in 2023. Let's remember that we are here just thanks IHF who give us wild card.

Croatia really needs a miracle to qualify to quarters

Croatia scored 1 at the start and I think only 2 goals in next 25 minutes ! :hyper::yikes:

This is fairly typical... Our teams (but handballers in particular) are always far from their best when playing against lower ranked teams. Back in Rio, they actually defeated both gold and silver medalists, but lost to Poland and Qatar. :p

 

With 32 teams on board from now on, I guess it is bound to reoccur more often in the future... :whistle:

Apparently Croatia had some food/stomach related problems. @dcro, do you know something about this? 

Not until now. And I can't find anything more on this. :p

Červar resigned. No surprise. This could actually be the first time that the national team has failed to score 20 goals.

 

 

 

But Croatia is not out and they can still qualify wtf  

Woody Allen is old and tired.

Damn, this is really bad two months before the OQT, it won't be easy for Croatia against France and Portugal after this drama.

    • Marco Girardelli went to Luxembourg one day and he had a great career. I doubt he did regret that move.

    • You know, but we still don't know what that was about. Ceccarelli has a difficult character but still changing colors to a country with which you have absolute no connetions? What would you say if Iga Swiatek fell out with the Polish tennis federation and started playing for Luxembourg or Andorra? Certainly not everyone would decide to take such a step, even if they had to give in a little in talks with the federation.    Another thing is that the Italian training system simply doesn`t work. As you can see, there are talents but we don`t know how to train them. Since the golden generation born in 1990-1995 (Brignone, Bassino, Goggia) we haven`t trained anyone who would stand on the podium in giant slalom or slalom in World Cup. So something is wrong. At the beginning of the 21st century we had a large group of good giant slalom athletes (maybe not at Brignone's level): Karbon, Moelgg, Putzer, Gius, etc., who were able to win World Cups, win World Championship medals, etc. Now we have no one. Take women's giant slalom for example: if Brignone and Bassino are gone, even getting to the XX World Cup will be a problem for us.
    • I remember that Lara Gut's family also had a conflict with the Swiss federation at the beginning of her career around 2008/2009 but it was resolved. I remember that the family also wanted to have a greater influence on their daughter's career. It was probably similar here. If there was a will from both sides, an agreement should have been reached. Especially since Colturi has zero ties with Albania. Sinner could have played for Austria sooner, as a person from South Tyrol.
    • Berrettini defeated Kokkinakis in 3 set   And now, it's Sinner time.
    • Well, it was to be expected that Colturi was going to have a breakout result like that sooner or later and the state of Italian alpine skiing will create some very long faces. But hey, if Italy  let their "best" prospect walk because of money then it's their fault. If there was some personal feud between Ceccarelli & federation it's even worse.
