whats the reason for the ref to dissallow a goal to mark a penalty ? two times in a row now... isnt there any advantage rule like in football where the play can keep on going ?


Plays are whistled down rather fast, due to the very physical nature of the game. If you would always allow the rough infight continue, just to see if you could get an advantage goal, this would turn ugly very quickly.
And obviously goals after the whistle dont count.

It depends on the situation you see. Sometimes actions take place in splits of seconds, so a ref sees a foul and tries to call it while there is no obvious advantage, but during the very reaction until this happens the situation may have turned one way or another. Also, occasionally players throw a "goal" after the whistle just because they can, but the opponents already dont care anymore, so it's not really a goal. And in football, you would call advantage instead a free kick, but not instead of a penalty, right?

Embarassment in handball = losing by 10+ goals.
As it stands now, the game is not even over, though I would no longer bet on germany.

Well they are against the best team of all time and they don't have a very good team right now despite being historically a good nation for handball.

Pretty sure I have yet to see the German goalie stop a single shot and yet the French guy has stopped 4 or so since I've started watching.

Wow the Germans just botched a golden opportunity on the fast break.

This sport is intense why do we not play it in the States?!

In handball do they have a limited time to throw the ball or a number of maximum passes before having to throw?

Great game by the way!

Limited time to collectively shoot at the goal.

You completely missed the point of the question. Obviously there's no money in it. That isn't much of an observation.

Because most people dont think of the highspeed/power sport Badminton is today, but instead have the following image in their mind, when they hear about Badminton:
