We are in the final!

Tonight Sweden, with injuries on our three best goals scorers in the tournament so far, beat favourites Denmark in the semifinal of the EHF EuroCup in handball.

Sweden won 35-34 after extra time (5+5 minutes). Sweden lead the entire game and with three goals only 2 minutes remaning – however Denmark made it 28-28 in the last second taking the game to extra time.

The best Swedish players were goalkeeper Andreas Palicka, Jim Gottfridsson, Mathias Zackrisson and Linus Arnesson.

The best in Denmark was Mickel Hansen and Rasmus Lauge.

This was a fantastic victory for our young team. Now we play Spain the final on Sunday.

It will be Sweden’s fifth final, after the legendary ‘Bengan Boys’ had a 100 per cent success rate in EHF EURO trophy matches, winning in 1994, 1998, 2000 and 2002.
