The strength of the Egyptian national team
With the arrival of the two Scandinavian teams in the final of the 2021 Handball World Cup, it gives a picture of the strength of the Egyptian team, which has been the most difficult obstacle of their career.
The Swedish team, which signed with the Egyptian national team in the fourth group of the preliminary round, were hard won by a score of 24-23 and took advantage of the numerical shortage in the Pharaohs ranks, making the difference in just two minutes in a full game which was dominated by the Egyptians, length and breadth.
