by the way, insn't any Iranian TV covering this event? :mumble:

 

EDIT: now I've seen your answer in the previous post...thanks!

 

nope. only the finals this year :(. and only if it doesn't conflict with European football matches :facepalm:

 

btw this time a last second WIN for Iran. even though I believe the last call was dubious. I would not give point for that (Akbari would lose 2-2) but again Akbari deserved a point earlier in the match when the score was 1-0. the Japanese stepped out , this step out rule when you are on your knees is really not clear. so many double standards here

I think Akbari didn't complete the takedown (so, no 4-2 score...and in fact the Japanese won the challenge), but still forced Takatani out with both feet, so I guess the 1-pt score (and the 3-2 final result) is correct...

not a takedown for sure but that's where I call it double standards. earlier in the match when Akbari attacked him. Taketani went out and his knee touch the mat OUTSIDE of the mat, he wasn't on his knee when he left the mat. that action deserved a point more than the last one. as I said before the rule is not clear here. the rules say when you are on your knees that's not count as a step out. but sometimes I see they give points for that.

 

btw this is stupid to have all QFs at the same time. they have enough time to use at least 2 mats for that. not all 4 :facepalm:

but in the last action it wasn't just a knee down and out...at a certain point, Takatani was out with both feet touching the ground...that's the moment where I think it's right to give Akbari 1 point...

too easy for Chakaev, that was obvious from the first match that Khinch is not in good shape today. he is one of my favorite wrestlers . nice guy and fun to watch. sad to watch him losing 10-0 .

 

this will eliminate our Maghsoudi. still a good experience for him. I hope we can find someone good next year for the Olympic qualifiers. this is our weakest weight for sure.

 

Cuba, india, Russia and Japan in SF at 65. I think Chakayev-Valdes final is highly possible now. obviously the best wrestlers in the competition today

it doesn't matter if you are on your knees. one foot or 2. a step out is when one foot goes completely out of the mat area while the knee is NOT on the mat. but as I said before the rule is not really clear here. I saw different calls for the exact same situations.

Andreyev lost to Takahashi as expected. which eliminates Atri :( what an opportunity he wasted today.

 

Sanaa, Uguev, Takahashi and Gilman into the semis. Uguev-Takahashi will be very interesting and that will be the real final

Karimi is on fire. he teched the Russian 12-1 !! next is Jden Cox for him. a very bad matchup but he was great today beating Sharfiov and Tsakulov quite easily

 

so it will be Japan vs Belarus and Iran vs USA in the semis. the top half is just a joke

Akbari always enjoys to win matches with minimum possible score :facepalm: at least he wins again. and now he faces Hasanov in the SF

 

but the real final is probably on the other half with Russia - USA match. interesting situation in this weight. Russia, Iran, USA and Azerbaijan in the semifinal . top 4 countries in freestyle in past few years. (even though Georgia is catching up lately)

    • Here's the Official Olympics Page - as you can see, both  &  are on the TBC list   Where to Watch the Olympic Games Live | Milano Cortina 2026
    • We don’t even have a broadcaster or streaming platform for the games ! IOC couldn’t get any deal for the Indian viewers and we can’t watch this games live ! 
    • 2028 Team Size Projection – Jan 2026 Update   Here’s an update to my 2028 Team Size Projection. While I touch upon major events changes may occur due to results in smaller events. Additionally, several sports released their qualification document so there may be cases where I have to update the projection. I will only include sports where there is an update.   Here is the link to the updated sheet.     Aquatics (Water Polo) The Men’s European Championships saw take gold. The victory moved Serbia up a few places between European nations. With that said, no one fell out of Olympic qualification with the likes of France and Romania still on the outside looking in. remains on the edge.   Athletics (Marathon) Both the Xiamen and Osaka marathons were held this month along with a few other smaller events. While there were a few changes in the rankings, in terms of Olympic projections gains an athlete in the men’s marathon at the expense of   Badminton Major tournaments include the Malaysia Open and India Open. New updates which affected projections include the women’s doubles where overtook . As Polina Buhrova is also scheduled to compete in the singles event, an additional spot has been open. Other changes in the women’s singles was loses one of their quotas. and benefit from those losses.   Indonesia’s loss on the women’s side is offset by gaining a second player in the men’s singles. This puts   on the outside.   Canoeing The qualification document for both Slalom and Sprint were released/updated. No significant changes were found in the Sprint update. Slalom had significant changes relative to 2024 where the initial quotas will be decided by rankings and kayak cross will now have significant quotas being allocated. After adjustment, the following nations lost a quota; Andorra, Chinese Taipei, Ireland, New Zealand, North Macedonia, Slovakia, and Sweden. The following nations gained a quota; Canada, China, France, Italy, South Africa, Spain, and Tunisia.   Cricket The Women’s T20 World Cup Qualifier was held. No changes to the projection.   Equestrian (Dressage & Jumping) Various World Cup events were held. No changes to the projections were made.   Fencing We had two Grand Prix this month, one for epee and the other for sabre. In men’s epee, overtakes . On the women’s side, the United States moved into the top 4 in the team ranking, pushing Estonia down to fifth. This pushed out of Olympic qualification while takes the Americas quota. This caused a downstream effect on the individual side as Ukraine takes an individual quota and Canada relinquishes their quota, additionally, gained a quota while lost one.   In men’s sabre, now takes the Asian team quota pushing down to just an individual quota. No changes were found in women’s sabre.   Handball Four men’s continental championships were held this month. finished top in Africa while a couple of upsets were saw in South America and Asia where and won over and respectively. Despite their wins, they currently haven’t leapfrogged into being projected to qualify. We’ll see how they perform at the World Championships.   Europe saw finish fourth. This was enough to push it into Olympic qualification projection. They pushed out.   Rowing The qualification document was released. There was a change in boat allocation relative to 2024 and the continental qualifier was slightly different than what I projected. Additionally, I assumed coastal rowing would allow 2 men and 2 women to compete in its three events, but the max is 1 man and 1 woman. This has caused significant changes to the projections.   Overall, the United States lost four quotas. Canada, France, Germany, Ireland, Lithuania, New Zealand, Norway, and Spain lost two quotas and Algeria, Argentina, Croatia, Cuba, Egypt, Kazakhstan, Netherlands, Portugal, Tunisia lost one quota.   The following nations have gained two athletes; Japan, Morocco while the following nations gained one athlete; Angola, Austria, Belgium, Chile, Chinese Taipei, Cote d’Ivoire, Denmark, Estonia, Kuwait, Latvia, Mexico, Romania, Philippines, Paraguay, Puerto Rico, South Africa, South Korea, Switzerland, Togo, Uzbekistan, Vanuatu   Rugby Sevens Fixing a couple of mistakes. First on the men, actually has the Asian quota over and in the women as is essentially shutting down the program, I think it is only right to remove them until they decide to compete again. This means is also projected to qualify.   As for new updates, we saw the third tier SVNS compete, which brought no new updates and the Singapore SVNS. I also didn’t add the Dubai or Cape Town SVNS in my calculations. For both, while there was some shuffling no one ultimately fell out.   Shooting The Asian Shotgun Championships were held this month. A few top shooters were missing. The only change to the projection is is set to qualify in women’s trap, pushing out   Squash The Tournament of Champions was held this month. Additionally, the qualification document was released. There was some restriction as to how many nations can send two players and this sport will offer universality quotas.   The following nations lost an athlete quota; Colombia, France, Great Britain, Hong Kong, Malaysia, and New Zealand. The following nations gained an athlete quota; Canada, Pakistan, Spain (x2), Switzerland, Ukraine   Triathlon The qualification document was released. There are a few changes relative to 2024. Projection changes include: Losses to Hong Kong and Slovenia and gains for Austria and China.   Weightlifting The qualification document was released. One change to be made was the reallocation process for host nation quotas. Due to this, El Salvador Iraq, Palau, Sri Lanka, Tuvalu, and Vanuatu lost quotas while Australia, China, Dominican Republic, Iran, and Samoa (x2) gained quotas.   Wrestling The qualification document was released. There were some significant changes to the qualification process including using the world rankings and the final qualifier only consisting of non-qualified nations. The projection changes are as follows; losses to Belarus, Bulgaria, China, Georgia, Germany, Hungary, Japan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Mongolia, Russia, South Korea, Sweden, and Turkey.   Belgium and Lithuania gained 2 quotas while American Samoa, Austria, Estonia, Iraq, Israel, Jordan, Latvia, Madagascar, Spain, and Turkmenistan gained 1 quota.
    • Looks like we in the Philippines are in the same situation. No news yet on whether we’ll be able to watch the Games 
    • Cricket is any day in a better position than Baseball, Modern Pentathlon or Rowing 8s globally
    • http://i.imgur.com/gLJZbix.jpg   Honestly football is just on another level. For other sports, an expanded field or creating multiple host cities likely only works with baseball, cricket and maybe basketball, and only in very specific countries.
    • No streaming for the games in India. I contacted IOC they just sent me a list where the games will be shown live.    Last games we had the Olympic channel and YouTube showing the live coverage for regions with no media rights. This time sadly no such schedule.   So much about making the games accessible to all...
    • What revealed those files of Epstein !!!! thousands of scandals , horrible diguisting things mixing politic criminalities , robbery , scam , manipulation...etc    all those celebrities of shht that you love   
    • I wonder if instead of having flexibility around what sport to add there should be one or two team sports per game with an expanded field (of 16 or 32 or w/e) where the host gets to pick which which team sports (if any) has an expanded field.
