The handball players are heading to Finland. A win will bring them closer to progressing to the European Championships

After the match in Finland, the national team qualified on Sunday in Pilsen with a match against Portugal.

The group is led by the Netherlands without losing a point, which after two hills over the Czech Republic from a deep hole and without losing it quickly secured a place on the ampiont. The first two teams from each group and the best teams from these cities will advance to the final tournament. Austria, Hungary and Hungary will host the Euros in November and December.

If they do not start on Thursday against the last team in the table, it could cost them a maximum of those goals in Sunday’s match in Pilsen for the second place, assuming that the Portuguese lose to the Netherlands according to expectations. In such a case, Dahl’s dogs would have two points more than their rival from the Iberian Peninsula and a better overall record before the narrow qualification match, or they won the outdoor duel 30:26 in the autumn.

We have to fly into both (remaining) zones and play the game from the beginning. It will be good to grab the points we need. We definitely do not want to talk about the European Championship, said the club member Anna Frankov on the association’s website.

The rescue in Finland should be a clear case according to the paper’s assumptions. Seven women have never competed in a major event and have not yet scored a single point in the groups. At home, they lost heavily to Portugal and the Netherlands.

Even though the Finns lost all the matches in the groups, they are definitely a team that should not be underestimated. Utk at home showed us that. We had a great start, but towards the end of the first half and at the end of the second half, we slacked off a bit and let the Finns play their game. Even though we should be better than them, we can’t slack off and we have to stay focused for the whole match, Markta ustkov said in a press conference.

At the last European championship, they missed, before they started four times in a row. Their maximum is eighth place from the years 1994 and 2002. Right after the wild qualification, the national team fights for the Olympic Games.

eky, thanks to eight teams, will be in one of the following qualifying groups at the World Championship in December. From April 11 to 14, compete for two places at the Olympics with home country Spain, the Netherlands and Argentina.

The most important thing for us is to focus on the first week, that’s the main thing now. I have one goal, that is to advance to the European Championship. And then we have one dream – to try to qualify for the Olympic Games, said Dahl.

Zpas in Finland starts on Thursday at 17:30.
