Handball European Championship: Germany vs. Croatia – live ticker – 4th group match day – 2024 Germany

8:09 p.m

For the Croats, on the other hand, it’s no longer about anything. The team around Kiel’s top star Domagoj Duvnjak will finish the main round in a disappointing sixth place. With regard to the Olympic qualification, a defeat would have been better for the Croatians today if Austria had won against Iceland in the afternoon. But that has been resolved and the selection from the Balkans has now secured their participation in an Olympic qualifying tournament. This means that Croatia can now play completely freely and without any ulterior motives.

Since Monday evening, the German camp had been prepared for a real final for a place in the semi-finals. But now the upcoming game against Croatia is suddenly completely meaningless. Since the pursuers Austria (24:26 against Iceland) and Hungary (32:35 against France) both made mistakes today, it is already clear before the final main round game that Germany will play in the semi-finals against Denmark on Friday. The DHB selection can take it easy, maybe save a few grains and end the group phase comfortably.
