Bit surprising that IHF didn’t choose Romania as a wild card instead of Great Britain, but oh well. Good for them. 

Hosts Hungary wouldn't like such a strong team like Romania to participate in this event, it would be far more difficult to qualify then. I guess it could be a factor as well.

Spain en route to Paris comfortably after healthy lead against CZE: 26-16, 49 mins.

To be fair, that's a little like saying the Netherlands should be great at ice hockey because it's the best country in the world both in skating and hockey  

No but seriously, why isn’t the Netherlands a world power in bandy? It’s literally field hockey with skates!

Sweden en route, too, with a 35-28 win against Japan

 

Germany en route, as well, with a 31-25 win against Slovenia

Surprisingly close game MNE vs PAR - 24-22 in 51 min.

 

and ARG is leading NED 14-12 in 23 min.

I watched the first half of our women, but what a shame. After 15 minuten our goalkeeper had a 0% rate in succesfull stops. From defence to attack ... it was a really bad first half. I expect we will win eventually, but Czech Republic and Spain will have chances against this Dutch team.

Rooting for  to qualify here so that @CCB won’t be as disappointed when Canada overtakes Netherlands for the final quota in women’s volleyball  (… just kidding, I still don’t think we’ll do enough to qualify)
