NaBUru38 205 Posted June 12, 2023 Author #153 Share Posted June 12, 2023 (edited) A lot has happened since I last logged in at Totallympics. - o - Yesterday, Uruguay won the Fifa Under-20 World Cup, defeating Italy 1-0. - o - The Teros 7s finished 12th at the World Series. At the London repechage, the team defeated Kenya and Tonga, and lost to Canada. However, Kenya defeated Canada, and the Teros missed the final on aggregate score. Therefore, the team was relegated for the 2023/24 season along with Kenya and Tonga. This weekend, Uruguay will host the South American Sevens, which is a qualifier to the 2024 Olympics. Last Friday, Peñarol defeated the Dogos to claim their second South American Super League, er, Super Rugby Americas. - o - In field hockey, the Cimarronas were runner-up in the Pan American Women's Hockey5, and qualified to the 2024 FIH Women's Hockey5 World Cup.

NaBUru38 205 Posted June 19, 2023 Author #155 Share Posted June 19, 2023 (edited) In rugby, the Teros 7s won the South American Sevens played at the Estadio Charrúa last weekend, and qualified directly to the Olympics. The team played very well except at the final match. They made a few mistakes, but Chile did even more. Murphy's law it seems. Fun fact: the previous two appearances on Uruguay in Olympic team sports (not counting doubles) were men's football in London 2012 and men's basketball in Los Ángeles 1984. Plus basque pelota in Barcelona 1992, which was a demonstration sport. Edited June 19, 2023 by NaBUru38 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
