Sweden booked their place at the EHF EURO 2022 with a commanding 23:31 win versus Romania in the first group 8 match on Wednesday evening. With the victory, the Scandinavian side took their points tally to eight, which cannot be passed by either Kosovo or Romania. Sweden are therefore assured of at least a top-two finish on the table. GROUP 8
The year of Palicka Andreas Palicka is having a superb year as the sole lead in goal for the national team and was critical once again as Sweden took command against Romania. In January, he played a key role in Sweden securing their first World Championship medal in two decades, was named in the World Championship All-star Team and even starred as ESPN SportCenter’s top play of the day with one of his most spectacular saves in Egypt.
