Chris Fisher3 said:Yeah, just gotta take them out one by one. I mean, regardless of how tough Egypt is, we have to get past them first. Everyone expects it, sure, but everyone also expected the Danes to pull it off today.

There aren't really any impossible hurdles in this tournament. I mean, the French look pretty intimidating, but they've got their hands full with the Swedes right now, and those guys don't mess around. Spain is strong too, but the Brazilians could've knocked them out, so...

That’s why I love handball. Anything can happen on paper. Honestly, we don't even need a miracle—we've got our faith—but we really need to pay attention during that game against Germany. With the way we're playing, we wouldn't even make it past Egypt, let alone worry about Spain. We need a new strategy... and maybe a new coach, but man, it might be too late for that.

It honestly bugs me that I can't see any real plan from them. For three days, the ball's just bouncing around, the wingers are totally exhausted and basically standing there doing nothing while the defender just takes them for a walk. If it isn't a fast break or a semi-fast break, they don't even try to push the pace. The Germans were running fast breaks the whole time, yet our guys act like they're the ones in control while the Germans are actually the ones driving the score.

Dammit, I missed that absolute madness of a game. Is there anywhere I can catch the replay? 🙏

I honestly thought the Americans would breeze through this one, but after reading that they actually got knocked out... 🙏

The Germans are totally struggling right now. They were up 6-2 at the ten-minute mark, but now at 21 minutes we're leading 8-7. Our offense is just stuck in neutral, though. Wolff is absolutely killing it in the net, though—going 10 for 17 is insane. 🙏🙏🙏

The Germans are struggling big time, but maybe things will stabilize in the second half.

Ugh, I’m honestly so behind on following all this—I only caught the part where the Norwegians were going up against the Poles, and man, they looked absolutely solid. Honestly, they might actually have a shot at going all the way if they play it right.

So, things are getting tense and we're looking at a showdown with Qatar? Guess I better pick up the pace and start sketching out some ideas.

If they had even an average goalkeeper, maybe Qatar would have pulled it off. It’s a real shame about this blunder by Sharif 😁

Is there any chance Qatar could pull off a surprise? 🤔

What exactly is going on here 😂🙏

Yesterday the Spaniards were hanging by a thread—barely scraping through—and now the Danes are out. It looks like another league favorite is falling; the Germans are heading home 🤣
