The German handball team grow in yourself and are on the way to write a winter wonderland. Without six performers the team of Dagur Sigurdsson defeated evening Denmark with 25:23 and made the leap to the semifinals of the European Championship in Poland. There comes on Friday to a duel with Norway. Winning the European Championship title seems possible
After a perfect teamwork across the entire season gave the concentration -. And the team celebrated itself and its success. In the 60 minutes previously impressive new German handball heroes were born. No One stood out in the last match of the main round of the European Championship, in general the Germans defeated a team full of world-class players.
National coach Dagur Sigurdsson, actually not a man of many words, said, “This is a sensation.” Although the Icelanders believed since taking office in the abilities of his team, but he was on Wednesday night even surprised by a team that seems to know no limits currently.
Simple Handball
Even on Monday ruled Tristesse in the German camp, when it was clear that Captain Steffen Weinhold and striker Christian Dissinger injured must drop out of the tournament .
On Monday noon Julius Kühn and Kai Häfner arrived as substitutes at the team hotel the Germans and played against Denmark: they exerted themselves to, they did little wrong, they showed no fear. Häfner had scored three goals at the end, Kühn important results for 22:23 (53 minutes). Thus the Gummersbacher and Hanover had done what all other players had also done in the field:. Just played handball
With this professional nonchalance they wore down the favorite from Denmark, no effective remedy against the variable coverage Deutsche found. Again and again moved Sigurdsson between a defensive and offensive defense formation – and his opposite number on the Danish Bank had increasingly perplexed. “The guys have managed to perfectly implement a complicated match plan for 60 minutes,” Sigurdsson praised his team.
Bob Hanning step after the game without a gesture of triumph through the catacombs of the Jahrhunderthalle. He would have had reason to be.
