King Harald was in the stands to cheer on the Norwegian handball team against Brazil during the World Championship.

The King was in Unity Arena in Fornebu alongside Norwegian Handball Association’s Secretary General Erik Langerud as Norway started off strong, scoring four points in the first five minutes.

However, it was not meant to be and Brazil eventually won 29-26.

Norway next faces the United States on Sunday, 19 January. Crown Prince Haakon, Crown Princess Mette-Marit and Prince Sverre Magnus will attend the game this weekend.

The World Championship in Men’s Handball will take place in Croatia, Denmark and Norway from 14 January to 2 February.
