January 21, 200719 yr Is there anybody out there who is interested in it? I watched the first match of Germany - Brasil.......27:22.... party:dance:
January 21, 200719 yr Yeah, sure I'm watching handball World Cup! Great to be the host again, after the amazing football World Cup. Some games will also take place in Bremen. :nice: I also watched the first game on ZDF last Friday and although it wasn't brilliant I'm sure we'll reach the next round soon. Unfortunately our best players like Kretschmar or Schwarzer aren't in the squad anymore... Today we have to play against Argentinia. I will switch between handball and the Simpsons. :P
January 21, 200719 yr handball is awesome to watch and play, but in australia the only time we get to see it is when they show it during the olympics, otherwise no handball for us aussies :(
January 21, 200719 yr We came so close to beating world champs Spain yesterday. We just fell apart in the second half :disappointed:
January 21, 200719 yr Oh really? That's annoying! :( Handball is very popular here, so you may watch at least one game every week on TV. German league is the best on the world. :nice:
January 21, 200719 yr They used to show the Bundesliga here! I used to really enjoy watching that every week. I'm very proud of the lads though. Its a young team and we pushed Spain right to the end.
January 21, 200719 yr Half time... Argentinia - Germany 11:17 Great game! Germany is doing amazingly well and the atmosphere in Halle (NRW) is brilliant. :nice:
January 21, 200719 yr I have heard of the name, and I think I played it at primary school before the accident, but I have no memories of what it is about. Although from the name, it suggests it has a ball and a hand.
January 21, 200719 yr You never head of handball? :o I guess here it's more popular than ice-hockey and basketball... Well, yeah teams have to throw the ball into the other goal, but the players aren't allowed to enter the circle around the goal. But they have the possibility to jump in it. One of the best players ever was Stefan Kretzschmar. Here's a goal of him against Spain during Olympia 2004 in Athens. Maybe this helps a bit to find out what handball exactly is... ;) By the way it's one of the hardest games ever. It's very easy to injure yourself.
January 21, 200719 yr Haha, good explanation Jules :lol: I've watched handball on tv a couple of times! Yay, i'm so proud of myself! Although i don't know anything about it..no idea what are the best teams/countries.. but it's really easy to follow
January 22, 200719 yr Egypt lost 31-30 to the Czechs yesterday :( We always lead in the first half and then collapse in the second :angry: The English don't play handball and for some strange reason, some of them have never even heard of it. I've always meant to find out why :thinking:

January 23, 200719 yr Oh my god did anybody see Iceland thrash the French bast*rds tonight? After the Ukrainian game everyone saw us packing our bags and going home but no! Not the mighty Iceland! 32-24 against the defending champions. Gruop phase 2 here we come! Ó, guð vors lands! Ó, lands vors guð! Vér lofum þitt heilaga, heilaga nafn! Úr sólkerfum himnanna hnýta þér krans þínir herskarar, tímanna safn. Fyrir þér er einn dagur sem þúsund ár og þúsund ár dagur, ei meir: eitt eilífðar smáblóm með titrandi tár, sem tilbiður guð sinn og deyr. :; Íslands þúsund ár, ;: eitt eilífðar smáblóm með titrandi tár, sem tilbiður guð sinn og deyr.
January 25, 200719 yr cmon is no one interested in the world cup? Mighty Iceland were fantastic in the second half against Tunisia today. We have a great chance of qualifying for the quarter finals
January 25, 200719 yr Just watching Tunesia-Germany on TV... it's 19:29 after 50 minutes! :dance: It's so good that Christian Schwarzer is back in the German squad! During the first two games he was working as an expert for ZDF. :lol:
January 25, 200719 yr haven't watched any match yet, but I hope that our team will get far, because they're really good, though some good players don't play this time...
