Today, Hungary played against Romania in the WC semi-finals. The match ended in a draw, without any extra time. Now Romania is in the final, and we play for the 3rd place.
Does anybody know why is that? What decided? I think a new match would be fair.

Milandrukker is right, I also don't really understand this situation. What was the reason for putting Hungary in the bronze medal match and Romania in the final?
A rematch would be a good solution, a real winner could advance to the final this way. I think the Romanian national coach and the other managers would be also happier if they qualified with a victory, not just a draw.

I was about to say that I agree too on playing this match again. I wasn't happy playing the final this way either, and want to be fair-play with u.
But this morning I saw the extra-times:
59:14 24-24 Attila Berényi 60:00 24-24 Overtime 61:22 24-25 Dénes Szekeres 64:09 25-25 Laurenţiu Rădulescu 65:00 25-25 Overtime - Pauză 68:23 26-25 Ştefan Mihăilă
This should have been taken place right after the game and not a day after. Right before I saw them, I wrote to Anders too asking him to replay the match. But these being played, I'm not sure he will change his mind.

The match was actually played with overtime monday. But there was an error in the way the match was displayed it just showed the first 60 minutes since upto now all matches in handballmania has only been 60 minutes. I just fixed the way the match is shown on tuesday so it displayed the overtime. I don't think a rematch is needed since the extra-times was already played.
