With the defeat of Denmark the beginning the Russian team handball men’s European Championship, which played a direct ticket to the Olympics and two seats in the Olympic qualification.
Denmark – Russia – (13:13)
In Gdansk, where competitions are held Group D final of the continental championship, the Russian team arrived without its most famous player Igropulo Constantine, who had never been called to the national team after failing to World Cup 2015, where our national team took the shameful to 19-th place.
European Championship – a key event of the season, because it played a direct ticket to the Olympics and two places in the qualifying tournament. This start in this very qualification can give the tenth place, but can not afford to win even a fourth.
The fact is that the French team is the world champion, has already secured participation in the Olympic Games and from Poland, Spain, Denmark, Croatia, Germany and Slovenia already have tickets to the qualifying tournament, like the six best teams in the World Cup, not yet released to the Games in another way.
If one of them will win the gold medals of the continental forum in Poland, the ticket to the qualifying tournament on the road to Rio goes to Macedonia. For everyone else, including our team, the current tournament – the last chance to keep the hope to participate in the main start of the four-year period.
To start the group stage team led by Dmitry Torgovanova and Lev Voronin, more recently, to play for as handball, had one of the top teams in Europe – Denmark.
In 2015, in Qatar, the Russian team did not withstood the Scandinavians in the first half, with the score 8:16, and then did not catch up in the second half, but tried very hard – 28:31.
At this time the Russian handball players have done everything that the opponent does not create a reserve key. That the speakers in white Russians immediately tried to seize the initiative, and that they generally happen.
The Russians were more active rivals, and the activity leads to productivity, and if not one of the best goalkeepers of the world Niklas Landin, surely the “Viking” had to be eliminated during the first half backlog more than 1-2 goals, they win back the confidence every time.
The Russian team was throwing a lot more, periodically performed 7-foot, which could not strum rival and generally played with enthusiasm. That only is a phenomenal penalty from captain Timur Dibirova enforcing something akin to football beat Antonín Panenka!
However, its second 7-meter Dibirov scored, and then to access points are manufactured under the standard of the team debutant Cyril Soroca experienced Landina replayed more often than the Danes saved. In one case, Magpie himself played on finishing after reflected by the Danish goalkeeper throw.
Despite all the efforts of the Russians, who in the last attack of the first half, even the goalkeeper was replaced seventh field player, half of the game ended with an equal score – 13:13.
But in the beginning of the second 30-minute, our team well “floated” distinguished opponent under pressure and proved as lagging in three goals – 14:17.
It seems that it really bad, but then gave the team confidence replaced at half-time Vadim Bogdanva Igor Kireev. Not that the main goalkeeper played bad, just look at the background of vis disadvantageous, but changer even after a difficult start the inning played on the same percentage of saves that Landin – 43-45, which is a very high figure.
The Russians once again cheered, and here and flew throws nines for a veteran team of Sergey Gorboka who actively helped another veteran Alexander Chernoivanov and Dibirov, Dmitry and Sergei Zhitnikov Shelmenko.
the equalizer to make on the figures 19:19, but then the “Vikings” have revealed a the trump card – the so-called “quick center” when the ball immediately after a missed goal delivered to the center circle, and the response to the attack takes place in the numerical majority. And just to counter the Danes were flying very fast, and then were able to come out ahead – 22:20.
Russians again gripped the opponent and tried very hard to restore the balance, but a long time rivals and go with the advantage of the Danes then two, then one ball, but after a timeout Denmark for 5.5 minutes before the end, the Scandinavians had a productive three attacks in a row, and the gap has become critical – 23:28.
During the timeout Torgovanov and Voronin asked finish wards already lost meeting quietly and close the gap, as will continue to appreciate every shot and missed the ball, but the ending is still left for the more famous team – 25:31 in favor of Denmark.
Now the Russians have yet to play with Hungary and Montenegro, and the last team of the group come from a distance the tournament, and the top three will continue maintaining points battle in the second group stage.
match with the Hungarians is especially important by the fact that they are a team of our caliber, and also did not have tickets to the Olympic qualification.
