Germany's DHB women's handball team stepped up their game in the World Championship main round, snatching a 24-22 victory against Romania. Despite a close first half with Romania leading 12-9, the national squad, led by coach Markus Gaugisch, significantly improved post-break.
Annika Lott and Antje Döll were the top scorers for the German team, each netting four goals. Goalkeeper Katharina Filter played a pivotal role with her impressive second-half saves, ultimately securing the win. The triumph over Romania kept Germany unbeaten in the tournament and cemented their best chance of progressing to the quarter-finals.
With their next main round opponent being Serbia on Saturday, and the tournament concluding against co-hosts Denmark on Monday, the German handball team's spot in the World Cup remains promising. Meanwhile, Romania must regroup and aim for a win against Serbia, which will be a crucial blow to their opponents' chances.
