Handball European Championship: Germany vs. Croatia in the live ticker today – before the start
before the start: The atmosphere in the Lanxess Arena is great as always, the teams have arrived and introduced themselves. Let’s continue with the national anthems.
before beginning: So, friends. Now get some snacks ready, get a nice cold drink and sit back. You probably won’t be able to watch a DHB game at a big tournament more relaxed for a long time. As a reminder and because you can’t say it often enough anyway: The DHB team is in the SEMI-FINALS!
before the start: There are the first votes to move into the semi-finals. “It’s obviously incredibly cool for the team. That makes us incredibly proud. Even during the Austria game, no one believed that we could do anything here and now we’ve made it to the semi-finals before the last appearance,” said the DHB sports director Axel Kromer.
Before the start: It is already clear which two players the national coach has left out of his 16-man squad for the Croatia game. Martin Hanne and Lukas Zerbe have to go to the stands, Timo Kastening, who was recently ill, is back.
