Denmark faced France this Sunday in the Handball World Cup final.

He won, for the third time in a row, with a score of 34-29.


Until the last quarter the match had no owner, but in the final stretch, Rasmus Lauge took center stage, who joined “surprisingly”.

The first row, rested, exploded like a rocket, with that innate quality he has, and tormented the French defense and their goalkeeper Gerard.

He was joined by another veteran, who was not used by his coach against Spain in the semi-finals, Mensah Larsen.

Between them and the goalkeeper Moller they put their team in orbit on the way to gold.

In the first half, the young Gidsel and Pytlick monopolized the Danish attack -10 goals between the two of their team's 16 at half-time.

The Danish start (0-3) kept them ahead until, on the brink of rest, France reduced the deficit to a minimum (16-15).

Denmark went twice again for three goals, but France resisted, looking for their pivot Tournat, and the final was still up in the air at minute 46 (24-25).

Denmark has been proclaimed handball world champion today after beating France in the final by 34-29.

Victory with a special flavor for the Danes for having been achieved in Stockholm.

Third consecutive world title for the Scandinavians.

Spain bronze, Sweden fourth.

In a desperate attempt, France approached with 29-31 and had a seven-meter shot with three minutes to go.

But just like what happened against Spain, Landin opportunely stopped Richardson's shot and practically closed the final, but not before his teammates opened the score again until that 34-29 that made them three-time champions.
