Handball World Cup: The Final Stretch

What kind of defense 🙏

It’s almost as if Dinart were playing for them.

it totally wiped them out 🙂

Like I’ve already said on this thread, there's no doubt about it—if those Frenchmen took over the US, things would change fast. But honestly, given our national psyche, how slow we move, and that famous burnout we all deal with? Probably nothing much.

waste of time 👋

e: I guess the Norwegian flopped after all 🤣

The Norwegians dropped 22 goals in just 45 minutes, while we managed 60... We really gave it everything we had

John Doe, what a joke of a penalty call.
😬

It’s honestly wild how subtly Saracevic keeps taking jabs at Smith throughout the entire game 😁 😁

The referees seem to be consistently favoring the home team. It is never blatant, yet every close call somehow tilts in their favor.

Wait, now that I think about it... didn't Jack send those Frenchmen into retirement feeling pretty bitter?🤔

Exactly. But I guess it’s a slow burn... first he was claiming they were playing for the Frenchmen and the rookies, now he’s bringing up the Sahara Desert. At this rate, I wouldn't be surprised if he ends up calling Smith a total piece of trash by the end of it. 🤣

The French absolutely crushed those Norwegians—game over. Those guys just aren't on the same level...

The officiating throughout this whole tournament has been an absolute disaster.
I mean, I knew they’d probably lean heavily in favor of the home team, but it feels like the Norwegians aren't even being allowed to compete at this point, which just seems totally unfair.
Honestly, if I had to guess, I’d say we’re probably going to see two of the Frenchmen get tossed out with penalties in the final few minutes.

The French just go about it like professionals... They play with this insane energy, almost like they’ve never won a single gold medal in their lives...

It’s honestly hard to find any other team in any major American team sport that shows this kind of absolute dominance compared to how the French dominate handball... It's just pure beauty to watch

We experienced a similar situation yesterday, brothers. A word of advice to my Frenchmen friends: watch yourselves, because things can turn sour in the final ten minutes.☕

What a championship squad 🙏

After yesterday's "We don't need Johnson, we have our own coach"... comments—which, mind you, were made while we were still up by 7...

The nerve of some people. 😁

It’s like the Norwegians just completely transformed into Americans... you can really feel the spirit of Babicev hanging around Bercy

We're just better. We don't even start feeling the fatigue until our 40s—these guys are gassed by halftime😬

Well, looks like the Frenchies have found themselves a new Omeyer, and I can already see the usual suspects—the loudmouths, the agitators, and the busybodies—starting to tear him apart left and right 😁

Get Omeyer in here so we can watch a legend for the last five minutes.
