Spaniards excited: We beat one of the best teams in history

Spanish coach Jordi Ribera couldn’t fight for the medal on his previous job in Brazil, but with his native country he has a chance to play final in the second year of mandate:

  • I am very happy for the team and Spanish handball. We beat one of the best team in the world, team who won everything. It is amazing success for us. Key was amazing game in defense which allowed France nine goals for 30 minutes. In every moment we controlled this game. We played very good almost 50 minutes. Rivals were pushing us, but we managed to keep control.

French coach Didier Dinart was very dissapointed after all:

  • I would like to cogratulate Spanish team. They prepared well this game. We didn’t played so well tonight. We lost match which we shouldn’t lose. We have to catch medal on Sunday.

Experienced playmaker Raul Entrerrios was again a true leader of the team:

  • Very happy for a win, very proud to beat one team like French. Key was fight, sacrifising in every moment of the match. That was the key of the game. We knew how important was to concentrate in every moment of the match to beat team like France. It is time to enjoy, but also take a rest and think about final in Zagreb.

Ferran Sole was also amazing with seven goals for the winners (6 from 7meter)…

  • Match was difficult against one of the best team in history of handball, everyone helped in his way, pushing in the same direction. We have chance to play on Sunday fo the gold, that’s why we are here, to win the tournament. This is the first chance for me, I couldn’t even dream about it.
