Egypt, Tunisia and Algeria to Sweden 2011

Written by Ola Richardsson, Sun Feb 21 2010

Here's a report from the African semi-finals, that made clear two of three participants in Sweden 2011. Once again thanks to Björn Pazen:

It was a hard struggle, but in the end the host nation has reached the men’s final of the 19th African championships: Egypt beat Algeria in a very close semifinal 26:24. Algeria was ahead most of the first half and led 13:11 at the break. After the 15:14 for Algeria the second half remained completely equal – and the host had to fight hard to control the match. But five minutes before the end, the sensation was very close, as Algeria led 24:22 – but then they lacked power and concentration.

Egypt, supported by their frenetic spectators in Cairo, scored four consecutive goals in the final stage and secured the qualification for the final – and the direct qualification for the World Championship 2011 in Sweden like Tunisia before.

The second semifinal was the complete contrast: Tunisia was absolutely dominant against DR Congo, and the game was decided even at the break and a 20:8 lead for the favoured team. Led by outstanding Wissem Hmam, Tunisia extended the lead from 7:1 in minute 12 to 17:6. As the winner was obvious, Tunisia saved powers for the final against their old rival Egypt, but won clearly 37:22. Before Angola had beaten Morocco 30:24 in the 5th place game.

Update: In the Bronze match Algeria beated DR Congo (30:22) and won the third and last ticket to Sweden. Tunisia won the gold medals by winning the final against Egypt (24:21).

It's true that Egypt beat Algeria but call it what ever u want but it wasn't handball cause Egypt was the host and most of the time the referee was with Egypt and at the end of the game to make sure that the Algerian team will lost that game the referee put 2 guys out with the red card and I'm very sorry Mr. Richardsson it wasn't lack of power or as u said lack of concentration it was pure and simply I call it CHEATING from the Egyptians . Anyway we will see what Egypt will do in that World cup. I wish good luck for both teams Algeria and Tunisia but not for the cheaters.

Have you come across the site GetRadioplay.com? a friend of mine bought their lowest package for us and after notice that the fee was Paid, we were sent a form for us to fill out in order to collect all our info. The form was very detailed and asked for all the info I guess they would need to get our music played on the waves . What I hated was that our song was rejected from their system. it turns out Its not as easy as it seems. their service guarantee is, that they only guarantee those artists That Get approved by their A&R department. So what ended up happening They issued us a quick full refund. Now my sister works for a record label and told me that they are an active company that gets songs charted all the time.However does anyone have any experience with being accepted?

Successful mold elimination entails eliminating each and every remaining mold spore in the house. After they do locate it, using both a site and device test, they have to have the appropriate equipment to remove it. It is recommended that at a minimum they should wear masks to cover their eyes, nose and mouth. In the event that mold is bad enough they might need to wear protective gear as well. Should they skip on safety, they are often skipping in other ways too. Next, they'll have to determine the specific agent to apply to remove the precise mold you have got and know exactly how to apply it. Many cleaning solutions they use will not be available at any store. Make certain they can explain to you the facts about the specific solution as it pertains to eliminating mold, best ways to use it, as well as, any potential warnings it could have. Ensure the mold removal is done by a professional, reliable, certified mold remediation company with the customer, as its primary focus. Verify they can offer guarantee and warranty of the services they'll deliver and success from the total removal of the mold from your residential location or business location. Also verify they're listed in the Better Business Bureau and request referrals from previous customers.
