Lidia Valentin (ESP) was 5th in Bejing 2008 and 4th in London 2012. For the doping, it's silver in 2008 and gold in 2012.

Who compensates Lidia so lost?

Injustice

Congrat's! 

Goddbye Rio 

Tokyo ¡hello! 

Tokyo 2020 will leave Rio 2016 tatters ... Spectacular

Rio 2016 have not seemed about own Games of the XXI century. They have regressed.

Bronze for Coloma, nice!

Yes, congrat's Carlos 

Congratulations girls. 

Spain achieved silver medal after failing not the whole competition. They are the deserved at London 2012, but the judges did not valued as well. Russia gold, but not penalized earned him the first exercise, and this dragged note of the other teams.

20 years in Atlanta, Spain won the gold medal, the first Olympic champion of this modality ago.

 Jesus Angel Garcia Bragado,  flag bearer for CC.

He has not won medal at the Olympics but has participated in 7 editions: Barcelona '92, Atlanta '96, Sydney'00, Athens'04, Beijing'08, London'12 and Río'16. He is 47 years old and says goodbye here.

Just one question. Our commentators could not understand why she jumped in glasses?  It was an advertisement or vision problems?

Hi.

Years ago I was operated vision and wears glasses. I guess it looks better bar.

Our commentators have called the victory Ruth the best moment of the day and an example for other athletes 

Thank's

Ruth is an example for many children in Spain.

I am very happy haver seen the victory of Ruth Beitia in the high jump, the first woman Olympic champion in athletics Spanish. 

Although not a final high-level, all had the same opportunity. Ruth gets the recognition of his career, for 37 years he will retire soon.

Thank you, Ruth

Yes, shockingly bad level, even in womens heptathlon 2 girls jumped higher. Kuchina couldve won the gold here even if she wouldve jumped drunk like Ukhov once did.

Spain wins another gold out of nowhere, they are probably the most lucky country in olympic history, the probability of them winning 5 or more golds was probably at about 0.00000001%.

Hello, Olympic Fan. 

First of all, I would ask respect for Spain, a country that is struggling to emerge from recession and whose athletes are in a difficult situation, with little help. 

I'll remind the world champions we have had in recent years;

- Fatima Galvez (Shooting, Trap)
- Alberto Fernández (Shooting, Trap)
- Echegoyen / Betanzos (Saling, 49er FX)
- Javier Gomez Noya (Triathlon)
- Carolina Marin (Badminton)
- Miguel Angel Lopez (Athletics, Race Walk)
- Female Waterpolo
- Men's Handball
- Joel González (Taekwondo)

---

And many other world runners-up and bronze medal. ¿Is this a 0.00000001%?

Regards

I'm a fan of the spanish routine but Spain won the bronze in 2015 only becouse Italy and Israel were wrong

Well, Italy won bronze in London 2012 because he was not penalized errors.

Surprisingly Spain qualifies as first place to the Groups Final, so they might get a medal if Russia, Belarus or Italy fail

Faultlessly, Spain could also be medal. Bronze medal in 2015 World Championships. 

Very happy for Eva Calvo and Joel Gonzalez. 

Joel had a very serious injury and had to learn to walk. His mother was very excited. They have gone very wrong.

Happy, happy for Carolina 

She is the first non-Asian player winning the gold medal in women's Badminton

Of course it will be difficult, but she is often great at championships and big moments, so if she has a great day and a bit of luck, it's really possible

Thank's 

I hope so

Beitia still has a chance

 

Not the biggest favourite or something, but saying she has no chance for gold would just be unrealistic  

That's right, but it is very difficult. Beitia is before his last chance, is 37 and retires after Rio. Spain is having a tough time in Athletics, he withdrew all its figures.

You have to trust the progression of Sergio Fernandez and Bruno Hortelano, but the world can not do anything.

I would have preferred him to win the gold  

 

But yes, this was a beautiful medal  

Spain no longer has a chance of winning gold. Miguel Angel Lopez was a candidate in the 20Km Race Walk, but failed. Spain will not win gold in athletics.

There are rules and those rules should be followed by all countries. Those rules werent applied on Turkey or Bahrain, so they probably couldnt apply those rules to Spain, although it would have been the right decision to not allow Ortega to compete in Rio for Spain.

For Spain wins a medal in 12 years in Athletics ... Orlando has had a hard time not to compete for three years, a little understanding for him.

hace 8 horas, OlympicsFan said:

Yeah and he shouldnt have been allowed to go to Rio for Spain, but IAAF doesnt even care about their own rules, so congrats .

It is possible, but Orlando takes three years without competing for Cuba and is a nationalization decision of the athlete. It has not been purchased as other countries do.
