Africa-Press – Angola. <\/strong><\/span>The national junior men’s handball team debuted with a defeat in the 24th World Cup against the Faroe Islands, by 21-34, in a group D game, played this Tuesday.<\/b><\/p>\n

In the competition, co-organized by Greece and Germany, Angola lost at half-time by 9-18.<\/p>\n

The Angolan seven will play in the group stage in the German city of Magdeburg.<\/p>\n

With a different defensive posture in the second half, the Angolans, technically led by William de Almeida, scored twelve goals, still not enough to avoid defeat.<\/p>\n

In the second round, Angola will face the defending champions Spain, on Thursday, and close the group stage against Japan, on Friday.<\/p>\n

In the last participation in 2015, the selection occupied the twenty-first position, among 24 competitors.<\/p>\n

This is the fourth participation of Angola in a World Cup of the category, after the editions of Macedonia (2007), Bosnia Herzegovina (2013) and Brazil (2015).<\/p>\n

At the service of the National Team are: Virgi\u0301lio Salvador and Paulo Gonga (goalkeeper)<\/p>\n

David Yambe and Jose\u0301 Chicola (centers)<\/p>\n

Reginaldo Francisco, Se\u0301rgio Constantino and Gabriel Sebastia\u0303o (centres)<\/p>\n

Paulo Domingos and Este\u0302va\u0303o Gomes (right wingers)<\/p>\n

Nelson Pedro and Cristo\u0301va\u0303o Lisboa (left wingers)<\/p>\n

Pedro Domingos and Euclides Joa\u0303o (right side)<\/p>\n

Mateus Pedro, Elias Chiquete and Ru\u0301ben Jose\u0301 (left wing)<\/p>\n

Even today, for the same group D, Spain receives Japan, at 15:15.<\/p>\n
