SPANISH HANDBALL | EURO OPENER : FRANCE 26 - SPAIN 29

The Sport of HANDBALL does not get the space that it deserves here, I am aware of this but as a "one man blogging band" I have to go with the more popular of Sports, being that Football (Soccer), its simple demand.  Said this I take the opportunity to give coverage tonight when something big happens & in this case a victory by SPAIN in the opener of the European Handball Championships.

Spain - France 2012

Apart from a good start in the tournament were the London Olympic Games classification is also up for grabs, the defeated Nation was none other than FRANCE, the Champions of everything in the Sport of Handball: the current Olympic, European & World Champions.

FRANCE lost 26 - 29 to SPAIN which is a fabulous indicator of the current form of Spanish side & a moral (psychological) booster for their aspirations for the Euro title & to secure an Olympic Games place. There is much more left to the tournament with some excellent & strong teams still to face ahead, but its great news for Spanish Handball & Spanish Sports.
