The revenge achieved by the handball players of the Faroe Islands (33:26) against the national team of Ukraine should be especially noted. In the previous head-to-head match, the Ukrainians were superior with a four-goal margin, with the islanders having the statistical advantage.
In a victory for the Faroe Islands and an important step in their bid to reach their first major finals 13 out of 23 shots were made by Elias Ellefsen a Skipagotu, while seven goals were scored by 17-year-old Oli Mituns. The Ukrainian team was not saved from defeat by the ten goals scored by Dmytro Khorykh, who scored ten shots.
In the last round of qualifying games, the Faroe Islands national team will visit Austria, while Ukraine will compete against Romania.
