The Spanish team will fight this Sunday to win its third consecutive European Championship after getting rid of a Denmark that came to the clash as world champion and after getting

's team out of the fight for gold at the Tokyo Games.

[29-25: Narration and statistics]

A tremendous match by a tireless

, capable of becoming the top scorer of the duel (11 goals) and stealing key balls in defense, together with a new display by

under the sticks, were vital for Spain to take one more what a well deserved win.

The performance of the Spaniards skyrocketed in a high-voltage second half, in which the Danes, in the end, were overwhelmed by the claws of a team whose competitive gene should always be beyond any doubt.

He has earned it.

The first half, on the other hand, did not go so well. Spain managed very well to survive a start in which they were up to four goals behind. Denmark, supported above all by the success of

and the good actions of

in attack and the good saves of

, managed to punish some Hispanics who perhaps lacked a bit of aim to convert several clear goal actions.

However, his good work in defensive tasks, maintaining intensity at the back at all times, finding good interventions by Pérez de Vargas and adding Aleix Gómez's ability to anticipate to steal key balls, would ultimately be what would allow the team Jordi Ribera went into the break just one goal behind in the light (13-14).

The Barça winger, with five goals, would also be the most effective of the Hispanics, followed by

who managed to add three more goals to his locker. The good arm of

in the shots from medium distance, when the Danes tried to shield their goal the most, would also be vital for the Spaniards to always stay in the game. And, in the end, to avoid any attempt at reaction.

The apparent suffering of the first part gave way to a second half in which the tables were turned. The Hispanics continued to find in Aleix Gómez their best argument in attack, the effectiveness of Gonzalo Pérez de Vargas under the sticks multiplied to unsuspected limits and the experience of Joan Cañellas was ultimately also transcendental for the Spanish team, once managed to get in the lead, giving Denmark virtually no chance of reply. The Spanish goalkeeper signed spectacular saves against the attacks of Hansen and Gidsel, the main figures of the rival, and exemplified like nobody else the intensity with which Spain took the match in a counter-goal action in which Aleix Gómez, the only right winger with the loss last minute by covid by

, of course, punished the rival goal.

The Danes, in the end, were completely outmatched by a team that has once again shown that it can grow in the face of adversity.

The greater the challenge, the greater the response of a group that can once again hang gold around its neck this Sunday.
