Yes, there was dancing and singing in the Brazilian team after the 27-24 victory over Sweden. A triumph that would hardly have been possible without the outstanding Rangel Da Rosa in goal.
The Brazilian goalkeeper made 20 saves before the match was over. Many times on clear shots.
To win against Sweden here, nobody expected that. But we believed in it until the end, the goalkeeper celebrates after the unexpected Brazilian handball success.
This is historic, it's the first time we get to play in the quarterfinals.
Before the World Championship, Sweden, Spain, and Norway were the three main favorites to take the quarterfinal spots from the group stage in Oslo.
But all three are eliminated – already before the last round of the intermediate round.
Portugal only needs to take one point against bottom-placed Chile on Sunday to win the group.
Brazil will therefore likely remain in second place, which means that gold favorite Denmark will be the opponent in the quarterfinals on Wednesday.
