The wait for a EURO win continues
The Faroe Islands have yet to experience victory at an EHF EURO — or any major tournament. Switzerland have a stronger international history but have also been waiting to taste victory at the EURO, with their last win at the event recorded in 2020 — and it was only their second, with the first taken in 2004.
In 2024, both teams took one point from a draw in their preliminary round campaigns, before exiting the competition. For the Faroe Islands, that draw was in another late-decided thriller, against Norway. For Switzerland, it was versus none other than the eventual champions, France.
