I’m thinking +5 for us... if you don't count those weird outlier games.

What a complete joke🙂

Honestly, if we had actually played defense today instead of letting Copeland run all over us, we wouldn't be down by five right now.🤣🤣 If we play this garbage, even France would collapse, let alone a team like Argentina.☕

Arthur Martinez7 said:Seriously though, is this group actually any good at handball, or what's their deal? 😁

I mean, have you ever even heard of Argentina being a factor in handball?

He’s finally going to clear that damn bag of cement off the vacant lot once and for all.🤣

we're heading to the finals

Gregory Ramos3 said:Total garbage—we had four times as many saves compared to that 58-minute disaster the other night. ☕

Like I’ve said before, the goalie is the linchpin in the whole chain...

Sure, the keeper matters, but so does the defense...

Today we actually played some defense—unlike the other night, where we basically took a stroll through the park. Or rather, the Americans were taking a stroll while they just picked our pockets and shot at us whenever they felt like it...

You know as well as I do that a goalie is only as good as the wall standing right in front of him.

Respect.

How do Americans hold their own?

We're looking at a 14-goal difference, easy.🙂

No, which is precisely why I am asking. 😁

It's such a shame Messi isn't playing... I've always had a huge soft spot for him.👍

we're at -5, they're sitting at -8

Alright, looking at how today’s game went, we probably should have put up about 20 goals ourselves... if I'm doing the math right. At this rate, two more wins and we're cruising into the semifinals—unless, of course, Mexico decides to absolutely demolish both Poland and Argentina by like 15 points each.

Gregory Ramos3 said:I’m thinking +5 for us—if you don't count those games

Without today's results, we'd be sitting at -5, while the Mexicans would be down at -8...

Do the math...

Right now, we’re sitting pretty at +9, and as for the Mexicans, I have no clue where they stand, but I highly doubt they've even managed to break out of the negatives yet...

this is how we play in America
if we’d played like this against the Danes, we would have absolutely crushed them... definitely...

The absolute moron who came up with that "Javiiia" nonsense on your national news network—honestly, someone should just drag him out by his balls and hang him from a lamppost where he belongs. What an utter disgrace.

Ryan Moore68 said:I mean, why is everyone acting so surprised? Sweden is nowhere near as strong as Denmark. They’ve already racked up four seven-meter throws—and honestly, I won't even get into whether those were actually fair calls or not. Their top scorer so far is a winger who hasn't put a single goal in the net yet... It's basically just their goalie keeping them alive, while we’re stuck doing our usual thing where Vujin and Momir just keep shooting until they completely collapse....

Does anyone know where the national team game is being broadcast? I have an NBC cable package at my place, but I have a feeling it might not be on there?

Tell me, are these guys actually the gold standard of handball, or what's their deal? 😁

They certainly aren't Malta, given they absolutely crushed Sweden and Slovakia before holding their own in hard-fought draws against Poland and Korea.
