LIVE! New edition of the Rio final: Denmark demands France - KICKE
After 60 minutes it was said in both semi-finals 27:23, each of the favorite had prevailed. First France shook Germany-fingering Egypt, then Denmark also stopped European champion Spain. The dream final and the new edition of Rio 2016 was perfect, in which for the first time since 2012 the French could crown with a 25:23 (14:10) to the Olympic champion. It was a bump for the most recently success-resuscated Danes, who had also won the 2019 World Championships in 2019 and 2021 next to Olympics 2016.
But in turn: as in the semifinal tore Denmark Superstar Mikkel Hansen the game from the start away, headed for early 4: 3 guidance two goals and an assist (6.). Kiel's Keeper Niklas Landin also found well, invoked a seven-meter of Hugo Descat, shortly thereafter to catch a ball out of the back. But those who have been properly constantly constant to be constantly constant in this tournament held step. Keeper Vincent Gerard, in the semifinals against Egypt of the X-factor, increased continuously in the course of the first half.
Karabatic irresistible - Jacobsen prevents
When Nedim Remili produced the first two-goal lead for the French after an irresistible intersection of Nikola Karabatic, Nikolaj Jacobsen - Meistercoach of the Rhine-Neckar Löwen (2016 and 2017) - his first timeout card (6: 4, 14. ). Especially the tempo game of "Les Experts" continuously used the 2016 Olympic champion, from the first and second wave, the team of coach Guillaume Gille repeatedly hit capital.
Because the Danes also made many mistakes unfamiliar after the breakout of Jacobsen, France led to the break earned with four goals. Shortly before the siren ex-Flensburg Kentin Mahé provided a determined impact for the 14: 10 halftime guidance. Only ten Danish hits after 30 minutes (five of Hansen) say a lot.
Strains are noticeable
Also, the start into the second section belonged to the French, the Karabatic brothers presented worth seeing for Valentin Porte, who set directly to 15:10. Both teams were subsequently to suppire the strains of many games in Tokyo. Technical mistakes and unusual imprecise degrees shaped the final - further with advantages for the record world champion (20:15, 39.).
A double stroke of Hansen brought back a little tension in time for the final quarter hour (18:21). In double majority, left-wing Magnus Landin shortened from the THW Kiel on two goals, Matthias Gidsel had seconds later (21:22, 49.). A heartbeat finish made himself in which France retained the better nerves. At the status of 23:24 Denmark lost the ball in the attack negligently the ball, Ludovic Fabregas met to the 25: 23 final score in the orphaned housing.
For the once "unbeatable" French - six times world champion and three times European champion - it was the first major title since the home World Cup 2017. After 2008 and 2012, the Triumph in Japan is also the third Olympic victory for "Les Experts".
