Dear friends from around the world I am no expert on handball, just an enthusiastic follower of this WM, but what strikes me is the nice cometogether of voices uttered in newspapers and on webpages around the globe. I think this dialoque across national borders and the friendly matches on the handball field actually lives up to the ideal of Sport itself. I would love to watch the game against France with french people, and celebrate not only danes players (I am from Copenhagen) or french players, but the game as something we participate in together. I am impressed by the danish performance sofar. To be hornest, I would not have counted on it, though I think it was possible from the start to expect great handball from Denmark, which has a strong tradition for the game (in this country we sometimes brag about the fact that modern handball is in fact a danish invention) and probably one of the best coaches in the world. To see Landin and Hansen take responsibillity, develop to such a level and observe such stability from this young team in general, that has impressed and surprised me. I am genuinely curious as to wheather Denmark can actually beat France. My oppinion is, France is favorite becourse of the group of more experinced players - also under stress (e.g. the macht against Croatia). But in any case Wilbek will have candidated to the title as the best coach in the sport, since he has led this very young danish group to such early succes, and the already earned hornor of the danish play in Sweden will have a positive effect in Denmark and promise further international succes within the next four years. Thank you wunderful brother in Scandinavia - and historically one of the best handball nations on earth, Sweden - for hosting the World Champignonships. Love from Copenhagen, Rasmus
