Summary: Four teams with four points in Malmö as Sweden beaten
Sweden's perfect record in the Men's EHF EURO 2026 was broken on Sunday, after a superb second-half show from Iceland. Meanwhile, Slovenia and Croatia also won, leaving four teams level with four points in group II.
Everything is in our hands, so if we win all the three matches we still can go to the semi-finals. Today for us today is a first final, but we know that we play against a really good team, Hungary, so it will be really tough.
I hope today it will be not the case that we have to come back, that we can dominate the game. It will be tough because Slovenia is a really good team, they play really good. We will do our best to win the game.

The afternoon's action starts in 30 minutes and Slovenia and Hungary are warming up in Malmö. For Hungary in particular, a win is essential if they want any hopes of staying in the final weekend race.

Sweden have been on phenomenal form so far this tournament. Although in terms of goals scored and efficiency they're not quite at the level of some other teams (France for number of goals, Denmark for efficiency) their attack is almost unblockable, according to today's stat of the day by Julian Rux.

We roped Hungary left back Patrik Ligetvári into 'helping' with social media. Watch him at work. 😆

Our other big feature today focuses on the Makuc brothers of Slovenia, Domen and Andraž. While Domen is well-known to many handball fans, as he features regularly at the top level playing for Barça (before moving to Kiel this summer), his little brother Andraž is just starting out. However, both Makucs have had an impact in the tournament so far, and want to continue that when they meet Hungary later today. Danijela Vekić talked to both of them yesterday.
