by Many interesting and tight games were expected, but we won many technical victories and committed matches. The main favorites did not clash, but the Greeks, having learned that they were definitely qualified, surrendered the match against Ukraine. In the lower bracket, the Bulgarians lost to Belarus two to zero, and their last chance for a place at the world championship is in the match against Turkey, who unfortunately also lost by the same score. Sweden surrenders the match against Belarus, immediately after that the Greeks do the same thing and in the final of the tournament, Belarus takes one point, which gives them the first place in the tournament. The fans of these teams were disappointed. The potentially most interesting games of the tournament did not take place.
The final five national teams going to the world championships from Europe are:
- Belarus,
- Ukraine,
- Greece,
- Sweden and
- Turska
They will join already qualified Egypt and South Africa as well as last year's champion Mongolia. Of course, Saudi Arabia as the host has its place in the tournament.
