:champion::bowdown::bounce::cheer: wow . this is rare to see an Iranian not being afraid of Japan. he was obviously the better Judoka and took his chance at the end. he became only the 2nd Iranian to win a World title in Judo . and 3rd gold medal for Iran overall.

 

when he started his early celebration (after that first waza-ari) it was all over the Asian Games tragedy again but only this time thing finished in a different way.

btw this is Slovenian judoka Mihael Zgank world silver medalist from last year.  Turkey :sick: First this Greek guy in 81, now this.

actually Albayrak is not even Greek, since he was born in Georgia with the original name of Vano Revazishvili, then changed in Roman Moustopoulos when he moved to Greece...

 

so, we can say he's a journeyman, to say the least...:rofl:

They won 8 last year and now they already have 4 + 2 finals but they somehow will fail at home, ok :mumble:

 

but the Olympic Games are a different beast...

first, they only have one competitor per weight class, which makes their selection more complicated...

then, they often spend most of their mental energy to make the squad, which is generally more difficult than actually win a medal once you're in the team...

add to that the enormous pressure they have to face each and every time they go to the Olympics...

and you have results like those of the last few Olympic editions, where they won very few Gold medals if compared to the world champs (and their expectations)...

You guys talk as if the games will be in Paris or Budapest but they will be in Tokyo. Sorry, but home advantage always makes a team perform to the best (or close to) of their capabilities. This is a law of olympics, tested and proven every 4 years. Japan with less than 5 or 6 golds would be a disaster for them.

I don't know why, but I see it on the contrary for Japanese, like they get destroyed by the home pressure. It's just my sensation, obviously. Personally  I think that Japan, out of 15 events, will win 9-10, including the team. But I won't be disappointed, if that is not going to happen.

    • If this were Milan from 20 years ago, it would be a success but currently it`s just a European average team and on top of that it is not in top form. Milan's defense this season resembles Swiss cheese.
    • Bologna is unfortunately is a team for the Conference League, not the Champions League   Juventus are plagued by injuries and are struggling. On top of that they have a terrible schedule in the CL. In their case qualifying for the play-offs would be a success in this season but I'm not sure how many points they will need to do that. Actually they chave 8 points.
    • Four events with medals awarded halfway into the first day, and already six NOCs are on the medal table
