Portuguese team began battle for Denmark with an win over Macedonia 32:25 and expected defeat from Spain 20:35), which built the respectable position before the upcoming clashes.

Portugal NT coach Rolando Freitas thinks that decision is still far away about which two teams from the Group 1 will travel to Denmark next January, but that Spain and Macedonia are favourites:

– Two matches against Switzerland are very important. I can’t tell you that we are favourites. We have to go from match to match – said Freitas for Handball-Planet.com in Kovilovo.

Portugal and Israel have played an friendly match without winner at the end – 26:26.
