The International Håndboldforbund (IHF) report to the TV2, that the Croatian people have been sentenced to a fine of 500 swiss francs, equivalent to 3300 dkk. in the case, which stems from the mellemrundekampen against Germany in Cologne.
this brought the referees Mads Hansen and Martin Gjeding yourself in focus by judging angrebsfejl against the croats in the final phase at the post 21-20.
the Ruling, which the Danish duo later admitted, was a mistake, denying Croatia the possibility to equalize, and led instead to a German scoring at the other end. The germans ended up winning the fight with 22-21.

the national Coach Lino Cervar, his assistants and the Croatian players were furious and insinuated that there was more than just a regular dommerfejl.
the Judges didn’t fair. The olympic spirit says, that all have equal rights in the fighting. Our team had not the same relation as the germans.
– I believe that håndbolden needs to be changed. It must not be amateurs, that determines how my team can play, said Cervar according to TV2 at the press conference after the match.
