No chance for Poland vs Spain or Pays Bas but Finland and Lithuania have had a terrible 2024 so maybe we can reach the playoffs again. It's been forever since we played Malta, probably the most elusive team usually drawn from the last pot. We only played them 4 times in history (WC 1982 qualifying + two friendlies in 1999 and 2003). -

Summer 1.this is easy...Rio 2016, the last Olympics with my mom still alive (but already sick), very emotional period of my life 2.Barcelona 1992, I was so young...and I had s much enthusiasm and hype (despite not winning many medals in those years) 3.Sydney 2000, the best Olympic Games ever...and one of the most successful for 4.Tokyo 2020, the Games of medal record for us and the first time I could actually choose at 100% what to watch and when...incomparable! 5.Atlanta 1996, more or less for the same reason of Tokyo...a lot of medals for and my first time with satellite TV and the chance to watch (at least partially) many of my favourite sports ignored by the Italian TV 6.Los Angeles 1984...my first Olympic Games, the discover of a new world, the enthusiasm of a very young kid (I was 10 at that time) 7.London 2012...again, a new step ahead in the TV coverage if compared to the previous Games 8.Paris 2024, despite everything that went around 9.Athens 2004, good memories but not so deep into my heart 10.Seoul 1988, the Games of scandals...moreover, I was too young to overcome the time difference and the fact that they were scheduled just when the first couple of weeks at the high school started but at least I was still very young, enthusiast and hungry to know about sports not so popular in 11.Beijing 2008, the artificial Games, the disturbing celebration of Chinese power, the lack of a true, genuine international athmosphere around the venues (and not because of lack of spectators)...definitely, my least favourite Games ever (among those I watched, of course) Winter 1.Lillehammer 1994, the perfect Games (with a lot of medals) 2.Torino 2006, despite the not so good results overall, the Home Games always have a special place in the heart of the sports fans around the World, and I'm not an exception 3.Sarajevo 1984, like the Summer Games in LA, the enthusiasm of a kid, the discover of a new world made all the difference...and, above all, I saw some international high level (Ice) Hockey for the first time 4.Albertville 1992...Tomba, Compagnoni, Belmondo... 5.Vancouver 2010...disappointing results, but amazing Games...perfect organization, beautiful venues, entertaining competitions (and for the first time, the chance to watch all the men's Hockey matches of the tournament...a great tournament, probably the best Olympic Hockey tournament ever) =6.Calgary 1988 / Salt Lake City 2002 / Beijing 2022...nice memories, but for some different reasons, all of those Games have been very difficult to follow and appreciate at 100% 9.Nagano 1998...awful Games...bad weather, penalizing time difference, disappointing performances...I only save the first ever participation of the NHL players in the Hockey tournament 10.Sochi 2014, a farce...Summer temperatures and results completely compromised by the systematical doping...not to mention the "0 tituli" for 11.Pyeongchang 2018...as if they weren't even held because of personal reasons...at that time I had absolutely no interest/enthusiasm for anything in my life -
