World Cup Handball: The Final Stretch

And these games at the end 🤣

Insane matchups 🙏

God, I hate France and everything about it.

What a game... absolute perfection... I wonder where we went wrong to lose this kind of magic...

The Norwegians are solid, but they're definitely playing catch-up...🙄

A pretty rough finish to the first half...

What a total waste

I wonder why the Norwegians halted their rapid advance during those final ten minutes.

What a game 🙏🙏🙏

So, you know how people talk about pushing on the pivot with both hands? Yeah, maybe... but there's also that theory that the French just play it differently, I guess.

Robert Doyle8 said:I’m not really sure why the Norwegians stopped playing such an aggressive center game during those last 10 minutes.

Look, man... it's just fatigue. That’s gotta be the only reason. 😁

Man, those Norwegians really pulled it off right at the finish line 🙂

The strength of these Frenchmen is just unreal 🙏

It’s no surprise that the US team keeps losing finals to them...

Let them run those Norwegian games again. I’m telling you once more, handball is easily the most exciting sport on the planet 🙏 It would be a real shame if the Frenchmen ended up taking this one

Harold Long21 said:both sides are killers 🙏

Exactly this.
A dream finale, really.

Gerard the Norwegian is to the Norwegians what Omeyer is to us. 😁

Nuclear Handball 🙏🙏🙏

And now we’re in game nine, and man, our buddy is just totally gassed 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

I mean, I don't think Norway is gonna make it through this, but honestly, hats off to them for that first half 🙏

The French goalkeepers struggled throughout the entire tournament. As soon as Gerard the Norwegian stepped in, they seemed to find their footing again.

Way too many goals in the first half. Seriously, there should be fewer than 10 goals per side for the championship game.

The Frenchmen are definitely going to pull this off in the end; if things get intense, the judges will probably just tip the scales in their favor...

But honestly, it doesn't matter, because Norway is an absolute powerhouse—they're going to be absolutely crushing it over the next few years...

Babić managed to hold those Norwegians to just 22 goals by the end of the match 😳

What you’re seeing right here is the future.

Norway pulls off more wing overlaps in one single sustained attack than our guys managed during the entire damn game.🙏🙏🙏

France👍

Even with such a pathetic defense, they still managed to claw their way back to a lead against
Norway. Honestly, all that hype was completely wasted.☕

Aside from that mindless sprinting to exploit an unset defense,
they have absolutely zero tactical depth; once the opposition settles in, they just fall apart.

I sincerely hope this kind of handball philosophy doesn't become the mainstream standard
for the sport. Like someone else already pointed out, it's just a disaster...
