the Rasmus Lauge says after the fight to Ekstra Bladet, the players throughout the match showed profits.

– When you to be nervous in the course of the fight. Sweden came to the front with a few goals in the first half?

– No. I think the fact that we play well and come to good chances, which we would like to have. Mikkel (Hansen, ed.) shoots a three-four pieces on the woodwork, and Palicka get tinkered with a few shots of our. I think, actually, that it is fine chances, and it seems that we agree on it all the way over.

– I do not think that we expressed any nervousness. I think, actually, that we expressed lots of profits, and since we also get a hole in Palicka (Andreas first name, ed.) in there, so we see how it all ends. We win almost with seven goals in the last 35-40 minutes, says Rasmus Lauge.

– Håndboldmæssigt is France the best team. Udenomsmæssigt and with the German fans – 12-15.000 – so you can see what it does to the most experienced dommerpar with the orders eventually. It has been seen before, and so I say no more to it.
