Egypt’s U19 handball won the World Championship for the first time after defeating Germany 32-28 in the final in Macedonia, according to Ahram.
It is the first time that Egypt win an U 19 World Championship title and the first time that a non-European team be crowned world champions.
Four members of the winning team were also part of the side that finished third at the U 21 World Championship last month.
Sunday’s triumph marks the biggest handball feat for Egypt since the national U21 team won the world title in 1993 when the tournament was staged in Cairo.
