>> Women’s Handball World Cup: Romania’s former rival reached the semi-finals – How the matches look like

Matea Pletikosic complained to the referee after the match Denmark – Montenegro 26-24

Pletikosic, a center for Korona Brasov in the Flower League, said referees Yusef Belhiri and Cid Ali Hamidi helped the hosts win. She believes that the Algerians made more decisions in favor of the Danes and evaluated similar phases differently.

“I’m sad. We got about ten disposals, and what did Denmark get? An elimination? How is that possible? How can we play a game like this when they make 15 shots from 7 yards and we get 3? I really think they were unfair. But I understand, I played in Denmark” – Matea Pletikosich for Sport TV2, television from Denmark.

AND Andriyana Popovych (Future) complained after the match: “Yes, we are very upset about the refereeing. They were not fair to Montenegro.”

In this match, Denmark won 7 shots from 7 meters (5 from Muntenegrens) and had only one throw in two minutes (6 from the other side).
