The National Handball did not stand up against Iceland. The representative band lost to his powerful 25-34 opponent in the closed Chalkida for the third Euro 2026 qualifiers and suffered his second defeat to the group, losing some of its hopes in the final phase of the event.
The qualification will now be played next May in the Games with Georgia and Bosnia.
A great profit for the National were the about 1,000 fans who gave the “present”. Among the spectators were dozens of athletes and athletes from the Athens Handball Academies.
The National Mission departs at 08:50 on Thursday to Reykiavik and Copenhagen intermediate station, so that next Saturday will face Iceland again for the fourth race.
