The Austrian national handball team is narrowly defeated 34:31 in the deciding game against Germany for an Olympic ticket. Ales Pajovic, Janko Bozovic and Lukas Hutecek talk about their feelings after the game. Disappointment clearly shines through, but pride in what they have achieved nevertheless prevails. The national team will already be fighting for a World Cup ticket in the play-off against Georgia in May.

"Our journey is far from over"
At the beginning of the year, the team showed that they can keep up with the big nations by reaching the main round of the European Championships. The successes have further strengthened the team structure and reinforced its ability to keep up with the best in the world. "Our journey is far from over," says Lukas Hutecek confidently.
