Austria U18 handball Euro 2026 campaign

Overview

In late July 2026 Austria’s under‑18 men’s handball team faced a decisive match against the Faroe Islands, needing a six‑goal victory to secure a place in the Euro 2026 main round. Earlier results left Austria level on points with Finland, Spain and the Faroe Islands, making goal difference the tiebreaker.

Two days later, the match ended in a 26‑26 draw, leaving Austria short of the required margin and eliminating them from the main round. The team was redirected to the Intermediate Round in Belgrade, where they will play Norway and Slovakia, aiming for a strong finish and a possible World Championship qualification.
