Denmark with an exclamation mark against Germany

After three successes in the preliminary round, the Olympic champion and defending champion gave Germany no chance at the start of the main round. In Herning the Danes won 40:30.

This means that the two decisive games for a place in the quarter-finals are scheduled for Group 1 on Thursday. Switzerland would have to create a sensation against Denmark to keep their chance. Germany meets Italy, with the same number of points, who celebrated an easy win against the Czech Republic with 25:18.

France has also performed very convincingly so far. In Varazdin, Croatia, they clearly beat Hungary 37:30 and are also still unbeaten.
