In this Sunday's match, the national team went to the half in disadvantage (11-12). The second half of the match was also not favorable to the Angolan team, which ended up losing against Croatia 28-20.

Qatar and Japan (from the same group as Angola) also played on Sunday, with Qatar reinforcing the leadership of the group. Qatar beat Japan by 31-19.

This second victory has already ensured Qatar's passage to the next stage. Croatia have also qualified for the next stage, after having won the game against Angola. The two will decide the first position of group C in the final round, to be played on Tuesday, January 19.

However, not all is lost, the third place for the main phase is still open and Angola can qualify if they win the game against Japan - which will take place this Tuesday, January 19, at 4:30pm local time (one hour less in Angola).
