POLAND 2016: Spain beat Germany – Sweden crush Slovenia

Spain and Sweden won the first points in one of two “Groups of Death” at Men’s EHF EURO 2016. Wroclaw has seen two great matches in which Manolo Cadenas and Staffan Olsson together with Ola Lindgren beat two great coaches, Dagur Sigurdsson and Veselin Vujović. Spain outplayed Germany 32:29 (18:15). With stabil Arpad Šterbik (13 saves) between the posts, Spaniards had a good base to build domination in the opening match in Group C.

Valero Rivera (7) and Victor Tomas (6) were in the good running and shooting mood while Cristian Dissinger netted six for the Germans, who lost the ground after 28:26 in 51st minute…

STATISTICS

Sweden beat Slovenia 23:21 (16:9) with the last goal by Frederik Petersen who took the advantage of Slovenian pressing in the last 15 seconds of the match. Slovenians began badly, but managed to come back after 18:10 on 20:20 when Dean Bombač put Balkan fans on their feet. However, lack of shooting material in back-line forced Slovenians to manage a lot of technical mistakes in fight with strong Swedish defensive line led by Tobbias Karlsson.

This was decisive in the last few minutes of the match. Miha Zarabec had a chance to level result in the last minute, but his weak shot ended on the arm of Mattias Andersson.
