Handball World Cup: USA vs. Norway - Final Score 25:28

How foolish 🤣

Heh, we're officially in the loop now.☕

Too many players 🙂

—we’re just experts at overplaying our hand, aren't we?

Let's just take this conversation to private messages, I guess. Once things start slowing down here, we can head over to the other site

The Norwegians spent half the game playing shorthanded, yet somehow they made it look like they were the ones with the extra man.🤦

Stepancic lumber

from 6-3 to 8-10

🤦

Could someone please explain why our starting guards, Copland and Stepancic, feel the need to drive into traffic and settle for contested shots at the rim when they could easily outshoot 90% of the league? Are they simply oblivious, or is there some logic I'm missing?

I guess maybe they just aren't seeing the floor? Is there anyone who can talk some sense into them?

they're just clueless

We're fueling up and heading to Canada.

Thank you, I was thinking along those same lines.

The Norwegians play such a beautiful game of handball; watching their movement across the court is truly a pleasure.

Much like the Norwegians, it seems some Americans play even better when they're shorthanded by a player or two.😁

What on earth happened to them after the 15th minute?
They just completely checked out... stopped playing entirely.
Stepancic got beat twice by a guy in a 2-on-1 situation, plus there was that two-minute penalty where they just sat there taking hits. I never thought I’d be the one saying this—but please, Marko (Copland), come back to us...

Man, right from the jump, they were moving the ball around perfectly. The wingers were pulling defenders out of position, some nice overlapping runs, and just feeding the pivots. It actually looked like we had a real game plan going, but now? I don't know, it feels like they're just messing around and forcing plays that aren't there. Maybe they're just overthinking it at this point.

How on earth are they losing? Charles explicitly stated we were the favorites

Like I said before, this whole transition thing...

Someone actually suggested that if we just shut down that Norwegian guy Pike, everything would be fine, right?

Well, look at us—we shut him down, and guess what? No big deal...😬

The officiating has been pretty garbage so far...

This is going to be another wasted (damn) semifinal. I can already feel the nerves and tension ramping up with our guys...

So, what kind of actual garbage calls have the refs been handing out so far?
They didn't even review it... was that Strlekov goal a total robbery or what?

We will pull it off; we just crushed them recently. It seems our opponents are struggling with the weight of those past defeats. ☕

How naively the defense falls apart.
