Foot kick with the… left was done by National handball in the European championship, knowing the defeat with 31-24.
The blue-and-whites were competitive for most of the match at Munich’s Olympiahalle, which was played in front of 12,000 spectators, but failed to combine their form with a positive result. They were in touch with the score, but it proved disastrous between 43′ and 53′ and then there was no… comeback.
Leading for Greece was Kederis, who was named MVP of the match with 5 goals and 100% accuracy, as were Bukovinas, Savvas, Mallios and Kederis. The anxiety, which the players of Greece had due to the inexperience of such matches, played an important role in the match, leading to mistakes, which cost dearly.
