#World Men's Handball Championship

[misunderstoodwerewolf]

UNBELIEVABLE!!!!!!!!

HOLY FUCKING SHIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Those guys are FUCKING INSANE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Third World Cup Final in a row and third WIN in a row, it’s... my mind is... I can’t even describe it!!!!! And Lauge, my man, he had not played most (if not all) of December because of an injury, he wasn’t on the court in the first few games, and the games where he was on the court (before the Final) it wasn’t very long. Then they get to the Final, he is out there for most of the game and cashes in 10 goals!!!!! And let’s not forget Mads Mensah, I mean... only a few minutes out in and when he can see an open spot he just fires it in, absolutely incredible!!!

I’m gonna try to end this rant soon... even though I don’t really want to because I could talk about these guys for DAYS and I still wouldn’t be anywhere close to being finished. Seriously, my love and respect for these Danish handball beasts has gone through the roof and it’s NEVER coming down. Just... just think about it; Denmark had never won a World Cup until 2019 in which the host countries were Germany and (yep, you guessed it) Denmark where they defeated Norway in the Final, two years after that it’s in Egypt where they won against Sweden, and yet again the Gold is Danish after one hell of a match against France. 

CONGRATULATIONS to ALL the teams who have participated in this years World Cup and I can’t wait ‘til 2025 where the hosts are Denmark, Norway, and Croatia. And, who knows... maybe Denmark will win it a fourth time...

Egypt announces measures to promote cultural tourism

At its board meeting on Tuesday, which was presided over by Minister of Tourism and Antiquities Khaled Al-Anani, the Supreme Council of Antiquities adopted steps to encourage cultural tourism in Egypt.

One of the most significant decisions, according to Mostafa Waziri, Secretary-General of the Supreme Council of Antiquities, was the provision of a 50% discount on entry tickets available to Egyptians at museums and ancient sites which you can visit with our Egypt travel packages.

The Egyptian Museum in Cairo is home to one of the world's most extensive collections of Egyptian antiquities. You can see mummies, jewelry, statues, and other artifacts with our Egypt trips that offer a glimpse into ancient Egyptian civilization.

The Grand Egyptian Museum (GEM) is an archaeological museum under construction in Giza, Egypt. Located next to the Giza Pyramids, the Museum will host over 100,000 artifacts that belong to the ancient Egyptian civilization, including the complete Tutankhamun collection and is set to be the largest archaeological museum in the world. Many pieces in its collection will be displayed for the first time you can visit it with our Cairo day tours.

There are many Egypt day tours that you can consider. No matter what your interests are, you're sure to find something to enjoy in Egypt.

The promotion, he continued, is a part of the "Enjoy your winter in Egypt" campaign of the Ministry of Tourism and Antiquities. It will take place in January and February 2021 you can enjoy the winter with our Egypt Christmas tours. this campaign has been launched in collaboration with the Chamber of Hotel Establishments and the Ministry of Civil Aviation.

For the fans of the event who were coming to Egypt from overseas, the Ministry of Tourism and Antiquities took part in offering several logistical and tourism programs.

The ministry has also instructed all museums and archaeological sites to keep taking preventative measures, such as keeping social distance between visitors, donning face masks, and limiting tourist groups to no more than 25 people you can try one of our Egypt group tours. This is in addition to respecting the maximum number of visitors allowed inside museums at any given moment.

Waziri said the Board also decided to grant all cafeterias and bazaars in museums and archaeological sites affiliated with the Council a full exemption from paying leasing fees.

Warning!!! World Men’s Handball Championship rant!!!

GUYS!!!!! I’m SO excited because tomorrow (Sun, Jan 29) Denmark will hopefully make World Cup history as the first country to win the Cup three times in a row!!! Not only that but they currently hold the record for most World Cup games in which they were undefeated (again in a row)!!!😀 I will admit that I think the game against Croatia in the Main Round should have been a win as well instead of a draw since there was a lot of messed up sh*t going on. I mean, it looked more like a battle to the death rather than a handball match. First of all, the Croatian players were a bit (a lot) too aggressive in defense, which leads me to my second point: There were at least two times where the referees should have pulled a red card or at least looked at the video in order to determine what the appropriate punishment would be... but it never happened. Let’s look at Mathias Gidsel as an example; he took several hits, slaps, and punches from the Croatian players, one of those (if I remember correctly) was a fist to the chest, JUST below his throat. You can agree with me or not I don’t care, but I’d say that one was just on the about the point of a red card, and if the referees had actually looked at the video then I’m about 83% sure they would have pulled a red card. This all leads to my third point: THEY NEVER LOOKED AT THE VIDEOS!!!!!!!!!!!!! SERIOUSLY, what good is it that they can look at the situations again (not to mention in slow-motion) in order to see what happened and what they might have missed if they’re not gonna use it?!?!?!?! Honestly, I hope the Danes will NEVER have to play a game with those two referees, because they were doing one Hell of a rotten job throughout the entire game.😡

Well, now that I got all of that out of my system, I don’t have much more left to say other than this; I can’t wait to watch the Final, and I wish the best of luck to both the Danish and the French teams, as well as the Spanish and the Swedish teams who will be playing for bronze. Pérez de Vargas (Spain’s preferred goalkeeper) was absolutely incredible yesterday in the Semi-Final against Denmark (Fri, Jan 27). He was a total beast and made some amazing saves... he was actually quite terrifying. Nothing but respect for that man🫡 On another note, Sweden will have to be without their star playmaker, Jim Gottfridsson, who has sustained an injury to his hand (pretty sure he broke it?) and will therefore not be playing. Something that is worth noting is that Gottfridsson was named World Handball Player 2022, so congratulations with that and I hope he’ll be back on the handball court soon.

Well, that’s the end of my rant. If you’re a handball fan like me and love to watch the exciting all-or-nothing-games then catch the World Cup Bronze game and Final on whatever sports channel you have. The Bronze game will be played at 6pm CET and the Final at 9pm CET.
