Karate EKF European Championships 2018


Recommended Posts

and finally Cardin lost a bout she had already won against the Ukranian...2-1 ahead, she was hit by a 2-point waza-ari with 7 seconds left when she should have had the full control of the match...shame on her...

now we still have to complete the field of the men's -60kg (we are at the quarterfinal stage) and of the women's -50kg (Bettina Plank, AUT has already won the Pool B -and therefore she's the first finalist- but the Pool A is still stuck at round #1...so, there's still a long way to go for those girls)...

 

we'll have the full results from today's action later tonight...

 

by for now...

So, here's the final recap of today's action...

 

we have 7 Countries with 2 or more athletes in the Gold Medal Bouts (TUR, AZE and ITA 3, CRO, FRA, ESP and UKR 2 each)...

other 7 instead only have 1 finalist (AUT, BIH, GRE, HUN, MKD, SRB and SUI)...

finally, 14 Nations have 1 or more athletes qualified for the Bronze Medal bouts...

In total, we have 28 Countries still hoping to end up in the final medal table (14 of them being sure of getting at least 1 medal)...

 

for Italy, it's been a decent but not exceptional day...we still have 3 finalists and 5 other people in the Bronze Medal bouts, but the expectations were definitely higher, especially our stars Busà and Cardin missed out badly their goal (which was obviously to win another European Gold)...and the fact that they got so close is not a consolation...actually, it's the opposite...it just adds more and more regrets...

Shame on the male trio...they've been able to lose against the Russians...I can't believe it! :facepalm::wall:

on the other hand, Spain is basically unbeatable in Europe in this discipline, both individually and as a team...

in both tournaments we had 2 very unbalanced halves of the table draw...a quite a few surprises, too...

both these things will probably lead to a pair of one-sided finals, with the best of the show already gone in the early rounds of the tournaments (which nobody, apart from the people in the stands of the arena, can watch :facepalm::wall:)...

    • https://nypost.com/2026/01/31/sports/team-canada-skeleton-coach-joe-cecchini-speaks-out-after-american-katie-uhlaender-manipulation-claim/   Oh the drama....   Cecchini: “I don’t really wanna speak negatively about Katie, but Katie was not on the World Cup team. She wasn’t a top-tier athlete in that program anymore. She was at the end of her career. I would personally would rather race against Katie. She’s not as competitive as the other athletes,” he said. “It’s probably really unfair to say and not really where I want to go with this but that’s where we are with that.”   Uhlaender: “If I were Canada, I would be concerned in how this coach is representing the Olympic values for his country,” Uhlaender told Fox News Digital. “He hurt a whole field of athletes, all with dreams, and this sends the message that they don’t matter unless they are number one. All athletes matter, and we all deserve to compete fairly, with integrity, and respect. He did not respect anyone in that field. “This is not about my resume or how good the athletes were in the race. This is about the fact that he intentionally manipulated the competition to hurt myself and 13 other countries because he felt it necessary to eliminate all possibility. That is against the spirit of sport and not what the Olympic movement represents.”   Isn't it great when other people's dirty laundry is aired?  /sarcasm     (I was a little surprised to see NPR pick this up, but per this article, Uhlaender preemptively recorded the phone call after receiving a text from Cecchini that said he had 'bad news' for her.)
    • Idea (that I don't want to mess with right now, but someone else can steal the idea): Could feed the docs from LA28 + Paris 2024 through AI and see what it says.  (Would just take downloading them, perhaps merging them for ease of upload, and passing it through.)
    • If you have time would love to see a sport by sport overview of the changes/new sports
    • Slowly going through the documents.   Looks like canoe slalom qualifiers will be a bit different. More kayak cross quotas which will let nations to essentially qualify two kayakers.
    • How about we choose either Rome or Milano  I hate this timeline we have entered of multiple host cities / countries. The football World Cup became ludicrous, we don't need the Olympics to join them. At least not more than they already are.

    • FIBA World Cup Qualifier March P.R.   This is my proposed Young Guns Developmental Roster. The FIBA World Cup Qualifier in P.R. is a throwaway tour- nament for Team USA after the Gold Medal Game debacle. This is the perfect environment to test the Young Guns to see who has it, who does not, and who needs more devel- opment. The 2026 FIBA World Cup in Berlin is the tuneup for 2028 in L.A. The game against Spain will answer many questions.   Betts     Center age: 22 Boston  Center age: 24 Brink     SF, F   age: 24 Stewart  F, PF  age: 32 Kiki Iriafen F     age: 22 Jackson SF       age: 24 Howard  SF, SG age: 26 CC         PG       age: 24 Paige     SG       age: 24 Young    SG, PG age: 28 Plum      SG, PG age: 32 Citron    SG         age: 22
    • I'm also reminded as I know Canadians are painfully aware that if figures hadn't been a part of the 1984 Olympics, then Brian Orser would have won gold.  Hamilton could have finished 4th in the free skate that year and still beat Orser who finished 7th in the figures
    • claimed their 3rd European title after beating 34-27  First title since 2012  got the bronze after beating   34-33   is the best team in the world by far 👏👏👏
