Czech Republic withdraw on eve of Men’s World Handball Championship Tuesday, 12 January 2021
North Macedonia has been drafted in as a late replacement for the Czech Republic on the eve of the International Handball Federation (IHF) Men’s World Championship in Egypt.
With one day to go before the competition is scheduled to get underway, the IHF has confirmed the Czech team asked to withdraw after returning several positive coronavirus test results before flying to Egypt.
The withdrawal is a blow to the Czech Republic, who were set to make their first appearance at the event since 2015 and a setback to organisers who are staging the tournament against the backdrop of the COVID-19 pandemic.
