Handball World Championship

As I talked in a previous post, the Handball World Championship is taking place in Germany. Last afternoon, Spain was playing against Germany for a place in the semifinals. It was going to be a beautiful game, between the last world champion (Spain) and the host of the tournament, Germany. But all the Spanish team could do wasn't enough to beat the germans and the referees... It is a shame that in a World Championship the referees can be so partial for the local team. It was AWFUL!! At the end of the game we saw some spanish players leaving with their hands up in a sign of a robbery

Handball World Championship

The XXth edition of the World Championship is taking place in Germany. The best 24 national teams of the planet are playing until February 4th to become the new king of handball. Right now, the holder of the trophy is the Spanish national team, one of the most powerful teams, and with a letal attack balance. My favorite player of the national team: Iker Romero "The Canoner" and Rolando "Giant" Urios.
The first round of the tournament is over, and the results couldn't be better for our team. Spain has beat the other 3 members of Group D (Czech Republic, Qatar and Egypt), and will go to the second round with 2 points, while the Czechs pass with 0 points. In the second round we will be facing strong teams like Croatia, Hungary (first in their group playing against Norway and Denmark) and the Russians. Good luck for the team trained by Juan Carlos Pastor.
