Denmark defeated Hungary 31–22 to secure a place in the Women's EHF EURO Cup final tournament. The victory left the Danish team with eight points from four matches and joined already-qualified Norway among the semifinalists of the competition's inaugural final weekend.

Goalkeeper Anna Kristensen made fourteen saves, and Kristina Jørgensen scored eight goals as Denmark controlled the contest. Hungary managed only seven first-half goals before Denmark extended the advantage into double figures early in the second half.

Romania beat Slovakia 32–19 in the other reported match, with Sorina Grozav contributing seven goals to reach thirty-two in the competition. Romania moved to six points and needed one more from their remaining two fixtures, while Slovakia continued without a point.
