Handball Euro Bronze Medal Match: USA vs. Spain 31:27

Garbage🙂. They always choked when it came to the bronze, and now they’re suddenly acting like they actually care about winning one. They weren't this motivated during the semifinals. What a joke.😠

What a classless bunch of people; they certainly deserve every bit of the boos they’re receiving right now.
Since they managed to reach the bronze on home soil, why don't the Americans show them how real handball is actually played? 😁

It's over—there isn't a soul left who'll say a word to Goliath...😬

Well, I can!

That stinking loser, Goliath 😁

Hold on, hold on... did they just give our two guys a thumbs up? :nod:

Paul Jones7 said:Of course not. I’m sticking to my guns here—we're talking about four non-existent sevens.

Just like when I pointed out that Buntić's seven was just as questionable as that last one from Balić...

Picture this: a player breaks toward the goal, lining up a shot, face-to-face with the net, and then they get yanked back by Buntić or shoved aside by Balić...

It's a clear scoring chance, and they're being obstructed right when it counts.

Same here, honestly.😁
I’m happy about the medal, I guess, even if everyone is going to treat Goluža like some kind of hero now. Personally, I’ll probably just end up breaking out in hives because I can't wrap my head around his performance, and there isn't much I can do about it.🙈

The storm has arrived. Great job, everyone.😍 Now we just need to root for Denmark tonight to wrap up this episode smoothly. We're getting close to the UN. 🙂

The storm has passed 👋

Honestly, I believe we can officially call this championship a success. We finally secured that one lone medal this generation has been chasing. We finally got the upper hand against the French, and at long last, Copland actually played his part. I'm feeling pretty good about it. ☕

If you ask me, the real championship game was the matchup between the US and Spain—those two teams were easily the best in the tournament based on how they actually played.

A total robbery at the finish line—honestly, thank god our guys didn't buckle and managed to grind out that win despite everything☕. Props to the team; ending on a high note with a gold medal is what matters most🙂
It’s going to be hard to shake off that mess against Mexico (not to mention the disgrace caused by their hooligans), but as for them—one good game doesn't make a season. See you at the Olympics, assuming they actually qualify
.

That’s right, and we practically swept the floor with almost all our neighbors, even if you count those early ☕
matches.

Adam Collins4 said:Honestly, Ninčev should’ve grabbed a red card too for that move near the neck...

The refs were definitely messing up, I swear, they were totally out of sync a few times—you could practically hear the frustration in the whistles and see it in their gestures...

As for that bronze medal, you really just have to look at the faces of those Spaniards and it’ll be pretty obvious whether that medal actually means anything to them or not...

I didn't catch what happened with Ninčević, so I can't really weigh in on that one... but if that's how it went down, then fine, we gotta apply the same rules to everyone, right?🤷

When it comes to the bold moves, there’s always something special about ending a championship on a high note with a win, and honestly, more often than not, the team walking away with bronze ends up celebrating way harder than the ones stuck with silver.😬

Way to go, guys!

So, looking at everything since 2003:

World Championships: 1st, 2nd, 5th, 2nd, 5th
European Championships: 4th, 4th, 2nd, 2nd, 3rd
Olympic Games: 1st, 4th

On one hand, it's an incredible run—we hit 10 semifinals out of 12 competitions plus two 5th place finishes! But on the other, we only managed two golds back in 2003 and 2004.
