– He really had a chance to stretch his hand in the air, says experienced TV 2 handball commentator Harald Bredeli.
KOLDING (Nettavisen): Norway sent a strong warning to the other teams at the European Handball Championship when Germany was crushed 42-23 in Kolding on Saturday.
The superlatives come from experts and from social media after the show, but more will be needed before the national team coach Thorir Hergeirsson takes off.
Hergeirsson shook his head.
At the post-match press conference, the Icelander faced all the praise from seasoned TV 2 handball commentator Harald Bredeli.
– There are many superlatives that go into this speed party. “PlayStation”, “instructional video”. What does the boss himself think? Are you shaking your head? in Bredeli.

Because the Icelander shook his head throughout Bredeli’s question of the word “superlative” that was mentioned. There is no doubt that Hergeirsson will keep his legs firmly planted on the ground.
– I have worked with the media for a long time. It is important to get excited, and that is to build confidence in yourself, but at the same time we know that you have to recreate it. There will be different opposition and teams are preparing even more for that kind of game. It is not these games that will dominate the championship. These are the tough battles, Hergeirsson replied.

Bredeli: – I could stretch it in the air today.
Bredeli, who has followed national handball teams for several years, is not surprised that Hergeirsson takes the question seriously.
– He also understands that it was a good game well above average. They score over 40 goals and win against a German team that is a potential semi-final participant. He really got a chance to stretch his hand in the air and cheer a little more, because it was a fantastic performance, Bredeli tells Nettavisen.
The profile of TV 2 fully understands that the Icelander adopts the attitude he adopts after the second initial game.
– Sometimes we think you can be a little too defensive and a little too “fifty percent”, a little too careful and a little too depressed. Perhaps it is also the success factor for the girls, that they themselves do not take off after this, as some others do, says Bredeli.
Bredeli: – Norway is the favorite
Bredeli points out that Norway have previously stumbled in championships, where they have swept all rivals off the field in opening matches.
– He wants to stay focused and keep his feet on the ground – don’t take off after such a win, because it may trip you up next time. It is completely conscious and completely tactical for him. It would have been possible to run naked across the square with your hand on your head, but he’s not the type to do it, and maybe we should be happy about that, laughs Bredeli.
– But in your eyes this is a layer of gold?
– I think it’s the biggest gold favorite. I justify it with the fact that I think they have the best team, the best stable and the best conditions. I also justify it with the fact that the other teams that have been up lately have weakened, says Bredeli.
The next step on the road for Norway is the meeting with Romania on Monday at 8.30pm.
