The Argentine women's handball team agonizingly defeated their Tunisian counterparts 30-29 in the final match of Group 3 of the second phase of the World Championship in Germany and the Netherlands, and said goodbye to the international competition. In Ahoy Rotterdam, Netherlands, the team coached by Mariano Muñoz played its last match in this World Cup, where it had qualified for this second phase as third in Group E with 2 points. In this Group 3 of the Main Round, it was eliminated after losing to Poland and France, as reported by the Argentine News Agency. Therefore, this match against Tunisia only served to decorably close their participation in the intercontinental tournament being held in Germany and the Netherlands. In an extremely close and contested match, Argentina was leading 29-28 with 20 seconds left when Sondes Hachana scored and tied the game. However, Muñoz's team reacted quickly, and Giuliana Gavilán scored the winning goal to give Argentina a 30-29 victory. Thus, Argentina temporarily finishes its participation in Group 3 of the Main Round in third place with 5 points. A victory for Poland or Austria, who face each other, could displace them from that position. Additionally, in the same group, France and the Netherlands will define the two qualifiers for the quarterfinals, which are already set: Germany will face Brazil, Norway will face Montenegro, and Denmark and Hungary await their rivals.
