Antequera – Austria’s handball women missed qualifying for the World Cup by a hair’s breadth. With the momentum of the draw in the home first leg, Rot-Weiss-Rot kept the play-off second leg open for the clearly favored Spaniards on Wednesday in Antequera for a long time, finally losing by just two goals 24:26 (12:11). Victory seemed within reach for the squad of team boss Herbert Müller right up to the end.
