CAXIAS do Sul, Brazil, May 12 – The national women’s handball team will be out to contest for bronze in the 2021 Deaflympic Games ongoing at Caxias do Sul. Kenya, who had a good start on a leading note, went down 31-8 to Denmark and will now be fighting for the third-place playoff. On resumption, Kenya were faulted for a penalty that was scored by the Dannish ladies and that was their tuning point. Denmark went to the half time leading 16-5, and when the second stanza returned, Kenya, who finished one less, could not match the pace and energy. “My girls lacked endurance, especially in the second half, but they really tried because being their first time competing in the Games and facing the defending champion it is not easy,” assistant coach Caroline Kusa said.
