If we actually manage to make it to the finals, I think I’d honestly prefer facing Germany over Norway... our guys would probably get way more fired up playing against the Germans.

I fully anticipate seeing a few threads pop up filled with all those classic, predictable slurs people love to throw at Spaniards—you know, calling them gypsies, frauds, actors, or just plain useless cowards. It’s always the same tired tropes.

Actually, I think they'll be more hyped for the Norwegians, especially since they already blew it earlier in the Olympics.

But how can anyone really know for sure? It’s possible they just feel a certain spark when facing teams they haven't met yet. 🤣
Personally, I'm expecting a win for Spain—though, of course, my heart is with our team. 🍿

Personally, I’ve always had a soft spot for the term "gypsies"...😍

Yesterday, I was listening to Marić on this local radio station out of Mostar—just one of those random stations you stumble upon—and he mentioned that if they move forward, he’s secretly hoping for a rematch against Norway to avenge that previous loss.

Our boys are riding high on pure confidence right now, and honestly, I think this massive win has them feeling like they can take on the world. 😁
The Spaniards might just run into the same wall we hit against the Frenchmen...
Look, I’m pulling for a win, but my gut says this is going to be a nail-biter for the full 60 minutes.

Greetings to everyone in this online community from a certain city in the States where handball actually pulls more crowds than football or basketball, Leon...
God, I am just so fed up with them...

Germany versus the USA... that's the big one. Now, who actually comes out on top?
I'll tell you right now—it's us!

Check out ESPN Deportes, they should have the broadcast live.

I honestly think we’re going to outclass them—maybe not quite as dominant as we were against the Poles, but I'm calling it now: we'll pull away by at least a 4 to 8 point margin.🙂

Let's go, give it everything you've got! 🎉
I just hope they don't get too carried away by all this hype.

Scoring 29 against them? Unlikely—but hey, whatever. I’m not making any predictions here; I've managed to stay completely level-headed by convincing myself they've already overachieved too much anyway. Still... it is the semifinals, after all...
As long as they don't get absolutely crushed and actually play with some heart, I'll be satisfied.

Huge chance at an Olympic gold here—I’m calling it now, whoever wins this game is going to absolutely slap the Germans, especially after how the French started dancing around them in the last final.

Just stay brave and don't let fear get the best of you—everything is going to work out just fine. 🎉

Spanish underdogs against those Canadian heavyweights? 😁
We’ll just fuel them up on hydrogen and oxygen, why not? 😁
Anyone got a link to the Fox's stream? Muchas gracias. 😁
