The best for Switzerland was Noam Leopold, who scored seven goals, while Gino Steenaerts scored six times. For Iceland, Ellidi Vidarsson and Orri Thorkelsson scored eight goals.
Switzerland, which already had no chance of advancing to the semi-finals, led most of the match, but the Icelanders gained that advantage, and at the very end of the match they had a shot to win, which they failed to realize.
This is excellent news for the handball national team of neighboring Croatia, which would then advance to the semi-finals with possible victories in the remaining two matches.
Today at 18:00, Croatia plays a match with the national team of Slovenia, while the last match of the penultimate round of Group II between Hungary and Sweden is tonight at 20:30.
