IHF Egypt 21 Day VII A lot to do at the same time toe to toe

Spain vs Tunisia whilst Croatia Qatar is on the other line!

19 January 2021

Nail biting Japan Angola 30-29 earlier but missed most of it due to business meetings and tasks.

Training video not shown on INSTA or missed it for a whisker. Perhaps better off.

Marchan scores all the Spain goals so far

Ma names are successful it’s Jorge’s turn now

Toumi deftly makes it 4-5 after six minutes or so

The connection is really bad on the mobile….

Fernandez also enjoys his couple of goals already and it’s 6-6 after 9 mins

Aleix jump on the penalty shows why there are physical training levels required

Darmoul likes having the edge over the defenders and scores another good goal

Just as I was saying Harbaoui never makes a save. He does an amazing one when Jorge was on the counter

All square at 8 with 15 mins played

Fernandez with ease adds one to his tally

Very good decision by Danish ref awarding a yellow card for faking a foul by the player from Tunisia

Becoming the Fernandez show! 11-18 on 17.25 mins

Aleix Gomez enjoys the freedom of a not so compact/tight Tunisian defence 12-10 (19’30)

Empty goal due to GG suspension and the game is 12-11 now (22’30)

The IHF YOUTUBE on the mobile is awful now!

As expected, we have two fairly toe to toe games, 13-11 for Croatia

The time is not stopped by the Danish refs whereas it’s a penalty

Three-goal margin 16-13 with 1 min left

Faulty substitution by AITOR

Rodrigo is bored but Marchan ensures a decent margin with seconds left before the interval: 17-14

Frankis scores a stunning number 12 for Qatar

Untidy handball 17-15 on 31’31

Figueras scores a delicious number 19 for Spain after just over 33 mins 19-16

8 out of 9 for Fernandez to make it 20-16 with 25 mins left on the clock

It looked like Darmoul had a foot down when he threw the ball! Indeed no goal number 19!

Very untidy and the concentration levels are dropping 25-20 for Spain (40’)

Abidi important save makes it a possible 19-18 to Croatia on 44 mins

Very very untidy again and it’s GG party with a 27-23 lead on 44 mins

Raul comes on with a little beauty and for largest lead so far +5

An unorthodox counter for Croatia and it’s 22-19 with 12 mins left

Goalkeeping saves accounting for the deficit?

Another magical stupendous effort by Raul 30-25 (49’30)

A lot of silly mistakes by Tunisia with punishment to follow. Now 32-25. It looks Tunisia gave up

Zakkar reduces the arrears to 23-22

Berrached concedes a costly suspension? Maybe

DD scores a couple in a row making it 33-26 with seven minutes left

Another faulty sub. This time Jorge!

Excellent Croatian defense in the money time as it finished 26-24

Gonzalo can be a bit disrespectful. But one can understand when the apology was made by the opposition player.

A much easier second half.

Despite looking being a bit tired physically and mentally Gonzalo smashes this one away, which enables Figueras to score number 36. Biggest margin 36-30 on the buzzer.

Later we have three exciting ones at the same time. I’ll have to choose because I cannot have my eyes everywhere!
