Germany’s handball players suffered a major blow to their mood before the European Championship semi-final against Denmark. National coach Alfred Gislason’s team lost at the end of the main round against Croatia 24:30 (14:13) and dampened their hopes of a European Championship coup on Friday against the Scandinavian title favorites.
After the defeats of Austria and then Hungary, the DHB selection had already been confirmed as semi-finalists before the game.
In front of 19,750 spectators in the sold-out Lanxess Arena in Cologne, Sebastian Heyxmann and Johannes Golla were the best German throwers, each scoring goals. The second semi-final will be played by Olympic champion France against defending champion Sweden on Friday. The DHB team is fighting for the fifth European Championship medal in the association’s history.
