(Group II) Norway - Hungary 36:29 (20:12)
Start of the main round was not ideal for Hungary. In their opening match of this phase, the hosts, Norway defeated them with 36:29 result. Hosts dominated on the court at the start of the match and had early 4:0 lead. Their dominance continued in the next few minutes and they increased that gap to 8:1. After such start, Hungary did not manage to find the right rythm and recipe for Norway. They tried to decrease that gap at the start of the second one and got to -5 goals difference, but did not go any further. Marton Szekely had 6 saves between the Hungarian posts.
