Croatia National Thread

Surprise, surprise, Barbara Matić will miss another tournament. I just hope that's not because our federation told her: "You don't have to go, you have guaranteed a qualification" :lol:

 

Lucky for Kumrić, for some reason Stam will not compete too. Kumrić is such a lucky guy.

Finally some good news for us.

 

Marijana Mišković is in the final of Baku Grand Slam. :yikes: Just wow. Mia Radotić finished 7th today in the second stage of Tour of Chongming Island. That gives her 10 points and she is now 8th overall, so this is looking good for her.

That means right now Kumric is out. And Matic and Miskovic in, of course subject to that Matic stays among top 14 in her category.

Kumric lost in 2nd round and as he is not registered for last grand prix he is out of olympics. Even if he will be there probably he would have to win it. Matic is safe, but for Mišković crucial if Matic will go via direct qualification  or continentail quota.

this will very much depend on the results of Esther stam and few others in Kazakhstan. Means 1 or 2 quota for us.

no man in rio.

Mia Radotić fell today in the sprint for the first place of the last stage.... She dropped to 13th in general standings, what gives her only 16 points what isn't nearly enough to become a serious contender for Rio. She would have got 35 points had she stayed in 8th place...

 

Talk about wasting your chances.

Mišković is not in. I did overlook the 3 Rd place of Turkish athlete. She is out by 18 points and Kumric by ca.30. As our athletes will not compete in Almaty we remain with one quota only. Unbelievable!!!

Ivan Kljaković-Gašpić selected for Rio in Finn.

 

Though, the main story is that we now have a confirmation that having Olympic trials might not be a good idea when our team is concerned. http://sport.hrt.hr/334892/kljakovic-gaspic-u-riju-borba-za-olimpijske-igre-ostavila-gorki-okus

 

They both finished quite low in overall standings, I wouldn't be surprised if they just looked at each other the whole regatta and ignored everyone else (even though this was World Championships technically).

So no quota in Canoeing. We will probably only be represented in 14 or 15 Sports (compared to 17 in London). I don't think we can make it in Archery and Basketball. In Judo and Tennis at the moment it looks like the worst case too, because only Matic will qualify and in Tennis possibly only Cilic, Coric and Dodig with Konjuh still having a Chance. I remember the times when we were basically only good in team sports, so i thought our sport was developing quite good recently. After all we are a small nation. But all in all this Olympic qualifying is a disappointment to me.

Well, media here is really bad in being realistic about sport. All that "we are punching above our weight" attitude is completely wrong. What about Ireland, Denmark? Slovenia? Lithuania, Estonia? Hungary? They all have much more structured team than us (ESPECIALLY in individuals sports) and very similar resources...

 

Apart from judo and tennis, we will also have pretty much the worst case in table tennis and rowing (and swimming). We might actually have a chance to get another quota in judo thanks to reallocation. One Oceanian quota will be unused, and probably not all 20 tripartite quotas will be used (in 2012 17/20 tripartites were used). But on the other hand, luck also hasn't been at our side during this qualifications.

    • Update after Matchdays 8 and 9.   Group A:  is almost a lock with 21p, and 7 games 7 wins. Almost impossible for them to not qualify. The battle is in the second place between  (16p) and  (13p).  with 8p is almost out.  and  eliminated.   Group B:  won both of the 2 games so is almost secured with 19p.  is second with 14p, with  (1 more game played) and  with 11p.  is eliminated and  practically too (6p)   Group C:  went 2 out of 2 so they are still first with 16p and one game less than the rest. The battle for second place will be between  14p,  11p and  9p.  eliminated and  (with one game less and 4p) probably too.   Group D: Only 3 for 2 places.  first with 19p has the advantage, but coming close is  with 16p. They played each other in the Matchday 11 of 12. Coming in third behind is  with 11p. ,  and  eliminated.   Group E: Both  and  won both matches so its still the same, Poland first with 24p and Italy second with 21p, which is the best runner-up and also qualifying directly, so is very likely that both teams end up qualifying no matter who finish first and second. , ,  and  eliminated.   Group F: A tie between  18p and  18p. Germany has the goal advantage (+21 to +20), and has to play the three weaker teams, so its more likely to qualify. Coming behind are  with 10p and  with 9p, which are practically eliminated with  and   Group G:  takes the advantage with 12p and one game less.  and  both have 7p, and coming behind are  5p (but one game less) and  with 5p.   Group H:  with the win against  moved to first place with 13p (and one game less), and Turkey stays in second with 11p.  is coming in third with 8p, while  is eliminated and  have 3p and one game less.   Group I: A triple tie between ,  and  with 10p.
