Denmark vs Egypt result corrected

At the end of the first half (26 minutes 59 seconds) of the 2017 IHF Men’s Youth World Championship Preliminary Group A match between Denmark and Egypt yesterday afternoon, a goal was wrongly attributed in the official match report to Denmark centre back Mikkel Beck at the same time Hazem Mamdouh scored a penalty shot for Egypt.
 
This resulted in a half-time score of 16:12 to Denmark and a final score of 29:28 to Denmark. These results were incorrect based on the previously mentioned issue and the official match result should have been recorded as a draw, 28:28 (15:12).
 
After an internal review, the IHF Competition Management in consultation and in agreement with both the Danish Handball Federation and Egyptian Handball Federation made the decision to correct the final score to 28:28.
 
The Egyptian delegation had registered an appeal after the match, but it fell outside of the official protest time of two hours allowed upon completion of the match in question and therefore the Danish delegation were not informed.
 
However, in the spirit of Fair Play and mutual respect between all nations within the handball family, IHF Competition Management approached the Danish delegation at Georgia 2017 to alert them of the issue and inform them of the two options available. These options were to adopt the official procedure involving the IHF Disciplinary Commission on site in Georgia with the possibility that the match in question be replayed, or, alternatively, to correct the result of the match under the spirit of Fair Play in accordance with the actual number of goals scored.
 
Therefore, a meeting was held earlier today, Wednesday 9 August, at the team hotel with representatives of IHF Competition Management with the Chief of the Danish Delegation, Christian Pedersen and Denmark head coach Claus Hansen who agreed to the corrected score.
 
“We will accept the 28:28 result due to fair play and sportsmanship and we believe that all other countries would have done the same,” said Hansen. “However, it is very important for us to underline that we haven’t made any mistakes in this matter.”
 
“On behalf of the Egyptian Handball Federation I would like to thank the Danish Handball Federation for their commitment to Fair Play and their decision to accept the corrected score,” said Hisham Nasr, Chief of the Egyptian Delegation. “We would all like to wish Denmark good luck in the rest of the competition.”
 
IHF Competition Management agreed that those match delegates involved in the incident will take no further part in the competition.
 
The IHF greatly appreciates the extraordinary sportsmanship of the Danish Handball Federation in accepting the correction of the result in the spirit of exemplary Fair Play.
 
All teams in the competition have been informed of the decision and the IHF would like to thank everyone involved for their co-operation.

    • In cross-country there were never mixups like that. And trust me, the cross-country calendar/results page has been one of my most visited pages on all the internet for a few years now, for obvious reasons

    • More AI visualizations of the venues.         
    • I can count for you, but what I will say is that I don't think it was a lot. 
    • Off-topic, when I lived in Beijing there was a park across the street that had all the 2022 pictograms along its fence on the street. They were big and lit up at night. It was really cool, especially because the 2022 pictograms were very unique and creative. 
    • They're not very creative or unique to Italy/Milano, but like others have said, at least they're understandable unlike Paris. These are very generic, though. 
    • National law and sport rules are completely different. Like, there's a law in Canada that if you punch someone in the face you will get charged with battery. But if you're playing hockey and do it, you'll only get 5 minutes in a penalty box. Japan only recognizes gender at birth and this was not an issue in 2020(1).    Any law Trump and the Republicans pass can only apply to governmental organizations, i.e. school competitions. Private sport events, like the NHL, MLB and the Olympics, can still decided who can and cannot participate in what events. If the NHL wants a female goaltender to play, they can do that tomorrow if they want. If the IOC decides Semenya can participate in the female category, then that's their right as a private entity. I'm sure Hitler wasn't happy that Jews, black people and other groups were allowed to participate in 1936, either.    Of course, I've been saying for a long time they should do away with "male" and "female" categories and just have "Over/Under X amount of testosterone" categories. 
    • Yeah, if they have all their FTA* live streams on one page, announced in advance, life will be easier. Before you had to sub to about 7 or 8 YT channels to.know what was on every week.   But the results/events Page is also easier, because previously they used to mix up World Cup & say, Balkan Cup events together.
    • UWW's new rules for change of nationality   this doesn't look great for likes of Bahrain, Albania, Bulgaria, Slovakia, Serbia and few more.    still it won't make a huge huge impact for the next Olympic cycle because each NOC still can use 2 mercenaries per style in each tournament but after 2028 it will be reduced to just 1.    some of those countries already have 3 or 4 (or more) Russian mercenaries per style. from now on they have to pick 2 of them for each tournament. I assumed the new rule applies to previous mercenaries too . https://cdn.uww.org/2024-11/change_of_nationality_regulation_eng_oct2024_final.pdf also you can't wrestle for another country without a passport. (UWW allowed that for some years) current non-national wrestlers can continue like that until the end of 2026 though.   it could be better but in general I'm OK with new rules. good job by UWW. 
    • Roki Sasaki has been posted for MLB transfer. Dodgers vs everyone else Part 175?
