Should be very close between Poland, Great Britain and Germany on the medal table.

The feeling here is that Britain could win 7 gold medals in the shorter races but not a lot in other events.

Also France (men's 100 m, men's 800 m, men's 110 m hurdles, men's 3000 m SC, men's pole vault, men's triple jump, men's decathlon, women's triple jump).

GB probably won't win much apart from sprints, women's 1500 m and maybe men's 20 km race walking/women's long jump, but that should be enough to win the medal table.

Attachment is the great fabricator of illusions; reality can be obtained only by someone who is detached.

Can anyone tell me the chances of Ivet Lalova and what kind of results (if any) she has had this year? :mumble:I haven't seen any information about her season at all.

Bookmakers have her as 4th favourite in the 100m (but way behind the clearly leading trio of Asher-Smith, Schippers and Kambundji). I guess a medal could be possible if she somehow finds a huge step-up in form, but judging by her results so far, she'd need someone else to fail basically :p

Haha, i like your humor!

A cuban athlete not starting at EUROPEAN championships would devaluate the event ... :lol:

Having one cuban athlete (Ortega) steal medals from EUROPEAN athletes at EUROPEAN championships is enough for me.

Would be amazing if IAAF would never allow him to compete for Portugal, maybe then Portugal/Spain/Azerbaijan/Turkey/GB will realize that they have to develop their own athletes instead of just naturalizing as much foreign athletes as they can.

This argument is so cheap.....

 

Spain has only 3 athletes selected for the European Champs that previously represented other countries. Trihas Gebre and Lois Maikel Martinez, who are married to spaniards and Orlando Ortega, who is living in Spain since he deflected Cuba.

 

So really tell me right now how much Spain relay on naturalizing athletes having three of almost 97........

Thanks! :yes I think she has more faith in the 200, not much practise for the 100 from what i know.

Very generous of the bookmakers considering she's only ranked 12th in Europe this year.

I think she might reach the final of the 200m.

Well trying to deflect from the disaster the African Championships appear to be, causes this.

    • Women's Champions League   Chelsea FC 1 - 4 FC Barcelona (agg 2-8)    Barcelona have equalled Lyon's record of reaching five finals in a row, with the final in Lisbon to be their 100th Champions League game.   Olympique Lyonnais 1 - 4  Arsenal WFC  (agg 3-5)   Arsenal celebrate their first-ever away win in a UEFA two-legged semi-final tie, which takes them into the final for the first time since they lifted the trophy in 2006/07.   The Final will be in Lisbon, Estadio Jose Alvarde, on 24th May
    • Many things, probably they thought it is already over and the win will come itself... but also Nitra improved their play a lot, they outplayed us in physicality in the last 2 games, they won almost every duel. Was hard to watch. Anyway I am still persuated we will finish the job at home with success on Tuesday
    • If you look at their results this season and on the Super Series, it’s not really that surprising.    I’d consider them to be medal contenders. 
    • At one point it seemed we were making good progress in this sport, but in the past 1-2 years things seem to have hit a standstill..   Ivaylo Ivanov is still our only elite judoka, but he is passing 30. There were/are some promising youngsters, but they haven't been able to make a jump to the senior level. At this Euro we barely had any first round wins (not including Ivanov). In fencing and taekwondo the results are much more visible for us. 
    • yes, but that's only an (important) episode... I mean, what's up with your team more in general...it looks like they got the classic "fear to win", they're not as brilliant as they were in the early games of the series
    • after a few leagues ended well before the true climax, now we have both leagues from the good, old Czechoslovakia going to game #7    shame that both games will be at the exact same time   
    • complete blackout resulting in a 5 minutes major 3 minutes to the end
    • Extraliga Playoffs   The Finals (Best-of-7 Series)   Game #6: HC Kometa Brno (4) - HC Dynamo Pardubice (3)  1-5 (0-1, 0-1, 1-3)   the series is tied 3-3 and also in Czechia we're gonna watch the magic of a game 7...Extraliga does never disappoint its fans    Game #7 is scheduled for Tuesday, April 29th in Pardubice @ 6 p.m. CET
