Tunisia as the Paris 2024 Olympics runners-up struggled in the first half and led by just two goals (15:13) at the break but ultimately a good defence and 18 saves from Andreas Woff helped Gislason's team to reach their goal the German team could not rely on centre back Juri Knorr and left wing Rune Dahmke and I don't think that they will play in the next match Rune has a better chance than Juri," Gislason said The Icelandic coach added that he might rest some of his key players against Tunisia Germany will be the favourites against the African side having lost four of their five matches at the tournament Anouar Ben Abdallah's nine goals did not prevent Tunisia from a 26:32 defeat against Czechia and while they would like to end the tournament on a high beating Germany looks like a challenging task the Germans won all six games against Tunisia at the World Championships and Gislason's team will be the strong favourites now The Netherlands may have struggled against France but Staffan Olsson's team showed determination and strong character Now sitting in fourth place with four points the Netherlands must defeat Austria and hope for favourable results in the other two matches - Hungary failing to win against Qatar and France to win their match The Dutch team's fast-paced and well-structured attack could give them an edge but their defensive struggles have been a recurring issue at times are out of the quarter-finals race after a hard-fought 26:29 loss to Hungary Aleš Pajovič's team are not likely to give up and will be determined to end the competition on a high note overcoming all the challenges they have faced during the competition It was a close game and we gave it our all Now we have one more game and we want to give it our all,” says Austria's head coach Aleš Pajovič the two sides have not yet met at the World Championship Austria came out on top in their 2010 qualifications for the world handball flagship competition Chema Rodiguez's team rallied in their next game against Austria overcoming some first-half struggles to secure a crucial 29:26 win Boosted by Kristóf Palasics' performance between the posts keeping themselves in contention for the quarter-finals Hungary are determined to leave nothing to chance knowing a win guarantees their progression Even a draw would put them among the top eight teams provided they score at least five goals more than Kiril Lazarov’s side and coach Rodriguez hopes they will keep it that way Veselin Vujovic's team failed to find a solution for European teams at this World Championship conceding four losses and only managing to win against Kuwait With a team lacking certain aspects in attack only right back Frankis Marzo kept his side of the bargain proving once again he is a key player for Qatar The last time these two teams met was in the 2019 IHF Men’s World Championship when Hungary won by 32:26 in the group phase With their quarter-final ticket already booked and first place in the group secured France can afford to approach this match with ease Guillaume Gille's team remain unbeaten in the competition showcasing their incredible depth in rotations and maintaining a perfect record This match offers France the chance to rotate their lineup further keeping their key players fresh for the knockout stages Their slim chances for progressing further require a win over France and hope Hungary lose to Qatar and Austria defeats the Netherlands but they need to hold their advantage in the goals scored department currently sitting at 127 as opposed to 122 Head coach Kiril Lazarov is aware of the task and its complexity but his team believe that with good support from the stands and their trademark fighting spirit even if they do not qualify for the quarter-finals they still want to have the best possible ranking from this competition Algeria and Kuwait clash in a decisive match that will determine the econd place in the President's Cup Group I and who will go to the Placement match 27/28 while the loser of the game will fight in the Placement Match 29/30 Both teams currently have one win and one loss with Algeria holding a slight advantage due to their superior goal difference even a draw is enough for Algeria to finish second Algeria enter the game on the back of their confident 32:23 victory against Guinea Goalkeeper Khalifa Ghedbane has been their standout performer and he could be key to stopping Kuwait's attack Algeria’s top performer is Ayyoub Abdi and his ability to overcome Kuwait's defence might decide the outcome especially in their opening stages against stronger opponents but Kuwait will need to tighten their defence and limit Algeria’s opportunities to score easy goals from their turnovers This young Kuwait team has already shown resilience in their comeback against Guinea and they will need another inspired performance to claim a win Algeria and Kuwait met three times so far at the IHF Men’s World Championship - in 2005 last two games went Algeria's way (26:13 and 34:29) Guinea are still dreaming about their first win at the World Championship and now face a massive challenge in their final group game against here undefeated Poland Poland already secured their place at the top and President's Cup Final and for them this clash will only mean rotation and saving their pride With two defeats and a -11 goal difference Guinea is locked into the last place in the group regardless of the result and will play in Placement Match 33/34 they aim to put in a spirited performance and gain new experience against a stronger European opponent while they will try to surprise with the help of their goalkeeper Rubens Pierre who stopped 70 attempts in five games Poland have been dominant in the President's Cup with a perfect record after beating Kuwait and Algeria Their attacking depth had been on full display even without star players Kamil Syprzak and Arkadiusz Moryto and have the favourites status in this game

With a thriving gastronomy and cultural scene, Varazdin is already one of Croatia’s more prominent industrial and business hubs and now the airport is hoping to leverage growth in these sectors by attracting more business aviation customers. Jelena Sekelj, Director of Parkovi, the airport operator, said the airport is undergoing a renaissance. “After a period of nine months last year, during which the airport was without a certificate and basically non-existing in the aviation world, several infrastructural improvements that are in accordance with national and EASA standards were made and the certificate was regained.” Sekelj added: “The most demanding challenges in terms of financial resources are yet to come, but we’re taking it one step at a time.” Among the work that needs to be undertaken at the airport are renovations on the terminal building, lighting and fuel supply upgrades. “In order for it to be a serious contender for business jets, Varazdin must be a 24/7 airport and we must set up the foundations for fully functional FBO services. We’re also working on improving the facilities for the passengers, the crews, police and customs officials and pilot students,” continued Pigac. As far as Jung Sky’s maintenance plans at LDVA are concerned, phase one includes in-housing maintenance activities for their own fleet. Phase two is long-term and involves setting up their maintenance service for third parties. “Maintenance is one of the key issues for the operators. Our goal for the future is to provide line and base maintenance for third parties and to be a reliable partner in that regard,” Jung concluded.
