Spain beats Croatia for bronze

Spain beats Croatia for bronze
Belaustegui of Spain in action

           After a tight match Spain defeated Croatia 35-29 in the bronze medal match of the Men's Handball competition at the National Indoor Stadium on Sunday, August 24.
The first half was close as Spain tightened their defense and Jon Belaustegui was punished with two two-minute suspensions in the first 30 minutes which led to him spending most of the second half on the bench to avoid a red card.
Ivano Balic (Croatia) played well in the first half and scored two goals but in the second half he was almost invisible and only attempted two shots, both of which failed.
