    HÖJDPUNKTER DECEMBER 2015 EUROSPORT 1 och EUROSPORT 2 EUROSPORT Ny grafisk profil och ny roll Ingen har väl missat att Eurosport under november bytt logotyp och nu står som avsändare för all sport inom Discovery Networks Sweden. Men skulle du behöva veta mer om det är det bara att gå in i Discovery Networks Swedens pressrum på MyNewsdesk eller kontakta Eurosports pressavdelning. HANDBOLL Handbollsfest när Sveriges damer VM-spelar i Danmark Damernas handbolls-VM avgörs i Danmark 5-20 december och direktsänds på Kanal 5, Kanal 9 och Eurosport 2. Sverige har fått en bra lottning och slipper i gruppspelet möta regerande världsmästarna Brasilien, Serbien som kom tvåa senast och Danmark som bärgade bronset. VM har avgjorts sedan 1957 och årets upplaga är nummer 22 sedan starten. Sedan 1993 avgörs VM vartannat år, förra gången i Serbien. 24 lag fördelade på fyra grupper har kvalificerat sig till turneringen och de fyra första i varje grupp går vidare till 16-delsfinal. Grupp A med hemmanationen Danmark spelar sina matcher i Jyske Bank Boxen i Herning, grupp B med Sverige gör upp i Næstved Arena i Næstved, grupp C med världsmästarna Brasilien möts i Kolding-Hallen i Kolding och grupp D med bland andra Norge kämpar i Arena Nord i Frederikshavn. Semifinalerna, bronsmatchen och finalen spelas alla i Herning. Ryssland är den framgångsrikaste nationen i dam-VM med fyra titlar (2001, 2005, 2007 och 2009) och därtill har Sovjetunionen på andra plats vunnit tre gånger (1982, 1986 och 1990). Sverige har den näst största segermarginalen i VM-historien med 66-21 mot Australien 2009.
