Round 3 of the Men’s EHF EURO 2026 main round threw off in Herning with yet another close match, decided in the final minute by saves from Norway’s Torbjørn Bergerud and Portugal’s Diogo Valério to end in a 35:35 draw.

The tie — the first ever in an official match between Portugal and Norway — helps neither in the race for the semi-finals, as now both are on three points, below Germany, France and Denmark.
