2007 Men's World Handball Championship: Germany Recap/Discussion

And this is exactly why I don't trust this crew. They blew a five-point lead right at the finish line.

Total headcase move.

Not bad. We picked up those four wins against Belarus—now we just need to go out there and take down the Mexicans, or at least scrape together a draw to secure our spot in the playoffs.

We need to knock them out early. The Danes have gone absolutely insane lately, and I’ve got a feeling they’re eyeing that gold medal. We better take care of business now so we don't have to face them in the semifinals.

I watched them play against Estonia, and honestly, it wasn't anything our guys couldn't handle. It’ll probably end up being a draw, much like that game against the Germans. Today at 8 PM 👍

It’s tough to get a clear read from that arena broadcast; the quality is too grainy to draw any solid conclusions, but they’ve looked like absolute beasts against every opponent they've faced so far.

Anyway, the Germans just beat Belarus by eight, which means we’re going to need a point or two to stay in this. On the bright side for us, Mexico's top player, Petar Nenadic, suffered a horrific ligament injury. It looks devastating—the kind of injury that puts a career in serious jeopardy since he won't be able to play for at least six months. From what I know about injuries like this, it's basically a nightmare scenario for an athlete (check out what Vujanic said about it); his entire future in the sport is honestly up in the air.

I feel terrible for the guy, but honestly, there couldn't have been a worse moment for that injury to happen 🙂

What’s there to complain about? He’s your own blood, isn't he? 😁

Inace, the Danes and Swedes are all tied up, so it doesn't really matter who we face in the semifinals. We need to fight tooth and nail for that point. And honestly, I have a feeling the North American kitchen is going to be back in action again soon. 😁

puce Sweden 10 differences 😁

The Danes are absolute savages, honestly.

Don't you worry, we're going to take down the Mexicans 🙂

USA 11:5 America

A bit of a lapse in defensive focus early on, I suppose. It’s clicking perfectly now, though.

Look at that—yet another Mexican can barely stay on his feet.😬

16-8, looks like the Mexicans don't have a prayer

aha... there they are at 4:13 PM

6-0, they’re absolutely dominating the second half.

Our guys haven't even managed to find the back of the net ten minutes in.

For crying out loud, give me a break.

7-1

We're sitting at 17-16 now

after being up 16-9 earlier

Seriously? Way to go, guys. Great job.

It’s already tied up at 17-17

Unbelievable

WTF... 9-1 in the second half

We're losing 18-17 👋

Absolute legends, honestly just legends

The Mexicans are running circles around them in the second half, leading 9-1

They're playing like complete amateurs

For crying out loud, they’re absolutely useless

I knew this squad didn't have what it takes to bring home a medal; they just completely fell apart when it mattered most.

Between Blazevic, Cupic, and the rest of those players who clearly lack any backbone, it was a disaster.

Whirlpool didn't sign Blazevic and ship him off to Omaha for nothing.

how much is it now... they're so bad they actually killed my stream 🤮

Two leads for the Mexicans

This game is already a wash

They honestly don't have the sense to just wrap this up quietly and move on

For God's sake, 11-2
