“Finals” on Monday
After Norway’s 12:9 (23rd minute), the Faroese came within 12:13 at the break and remained on the Norwegians’ heels. In the final phase the scales seemed to tip towards the favorites: Reinkind, Sagosen and Blonz, the most successful thrower with eight hits, gave Norway a 26:23 lead, while Bergerüd saved important balls. But the Faroese came back again after the hard red card against Överby, who had fouled á Skipagötu: á Skipagötu scored 24:26, Roi Hansen 30 seconds before the end made it 25:26. The Faroe Islands switched to open coverage, Elias Ellefsen á Skipagötu spied the ball out of the fingers of his Kiel teammate Reinkind and he could only stop it by holding it. The result: seven meters, á Skipagötu dry with his fifth goal to make it 26:26 – the rest was unbelievable celebration. The Faroe Islands now even have the opportunity to book their main round ticket with a win on the last matchday against Poland (Monday, 6 p.m.). To do this, the Faroe Islands need help from the currently unbeaten Slovenians in the final duel with Norway (Monday, 8:30 p.m.). All matches at the 2024 European Handball Championship will be played by Dyn transmitted. The paid streaming service also makes all matches available on demand.
