Today, on October 3, the opponent for Ukraine's national handball team in the match for third place at the CH-2024 was determined. It will be France, which lost to Argentina in the semifinals—2:3.

As a reminder, during the group stage, blue and yellow first conceded to Argentina—1:7, then confidently won twice—against Angola (7:2) and Afghanistan (4:1). Later in the match against the Netherlands (3:1), our team secured a spot in the quarter-finals, where they impressively defeated Venezuela (9:4). Finally, in the semifinals, Ukraine gave a real fight to five-time world champions—Brazil—but unfortunately could not advance past them—2:3.

The match for third place between Ukraine and France will take place on Sunday, October 6 in Tashkent (kickoff at 15:30 Kyiv time).
