ExpandFair, but this Volleyball final means very little in the grand scheme of things...
Well, it's difficult to compete, but I remember that the women's handball final had a great audience.
Perhaps if the organizers hadn't decided to put ALL the team sport finals at the same time, we could have had a different scenario.
Expand250k people are watching the volleyball final, while only 5,000 are watching the handball final (which is an Olympic qualifying event, of course). This unfortunately shows the priorities of our sport...
It's a final for the second most popular sport in the country against its biggest rival. This couldn't be any different.
ExpandThey gave back
the gold medal in women's 400m Hurdles

Which means
loses a gold and
the bronze medal @Olympian1010
Wait, a day later, the podium has already happened and now the athlete has to give back the gold?? Is this serious??
ExpandUnexpected gold medal in Triathlon
![]()
Of course the USA was a big favorite, but I think we are no longer underdogs in triathlon.
We have always been weak in water polo, but our current level is bizarre.
I can't be surprised by anything else in these games.
ExpandI think so. She did the medal mark one time and never again...
Unfortunately. It must be frustrating for an athlete. Not to mention that the status of world medalist ends up creating great pressure on her.
Let's hope she can get out of this "curse".
Once again...
What was Leticia Oro's result at the 2022 world championship? It was luck??
I like how Pan American Games always provided us with really fun matches.
Water Polo 35-0
Field Hockey 21-0
Handball 51-19
ExpandThe single worst Basketball match I've have ever seen in my entire life.
And we reached 50 points.
Well, what matters is the gold medal, I guess.
Ridiculous level of this women's basketball final.
Brazil being a nightmare for Chile in these games.
I didn't know there was a camera exclusive to road cycling. At least we can follow the uruguayan's performance in detail.
Almost perfect day for Brazil in judo. 4 golds out of 5 possible (The same amount of golds we won in total in Lima 2019).
George
Boxing is ridiculous. Brazil has just been robbed... There is no way the Cuban won that, he was obliterated in the last round and won 4-1.
Brazil looks more decent at field hockey than I expected, considering it's our worst Olympic sport.
Two days ago we lost to Canada by just 2 goals and today we beat Trinidad and Tobago.
Gold for the Dominican Republic in women's volleyball.
As much as I wanted this gold for us, it's hard not to be happy for them.
Brazil beats Mexico 3-2 in women's volleyball and wins the silver medal in the tournament. After the disaster of 2019, we will finish with a medal here.
Now, let's try the miracle against the Dominican Republic.
ExpandWell your A-squad isn’t here… so no chance your women beat Dominican Republic.
I don't think we're going to beat the Dominican Republic, but I think you're underestimating their ability to lose easy games.
Don't forget that the same team that beat Serbia and China in Olympic qualification also lost to the Czech Republic.
Brazil and Argentina always provide us with good entertainment.
What a beach volleyball match!!
But the way we're playing, I'm not sure if we're going to win gold here.
We won our SIXTH silver medal in artistic gymnastics.
Brazil in 9 boxing semifinals. And considering tomorrow's matches, there's a good chance we'll make it 12 out of 13.
It's a shame that one of our best boxers lost in his debut.
@vinipereira Somehow we still managed to win gold in taekwondo.

Raicca Ventura is the world champion in women's park. A great result for what was our worst discipline in olympic skateboarding.
I don't think the olympic medalists were there, but a score of 93.73 should be enough to compete with them and maybe beat them. High expectations for her in this cycle.
