Schwechat-Austria’s handball women took a first, important step towards the 2025 World Cup on Thursday. In the qualification play-off first leg, team boss Monique Tijsterman’s team in Schwechat struggled against Turkey for a long time, but finally celebrated a clear 36: 29- (13:13) success thanks to a strong finish. The lead must be defended on Sunday (6:00 p.m./Live ORF Sport +) in Amasya.
