Well, whatever small dream our handball team had for Rio is over: Diego Simonet broke his cruciate ligament and is out for 8 months.

Uf.... Bad news for South American handball 

[LDOG 2,418]

Very strong rumors that the 3 overage players for the olympics will be Geronimo Rulli (GK, Real Sociedad), Ramiro Funes Mori (CB, Everton) and Mateo Musacchio (CB, Villarreal).

 

I agree that we needed two defenders since it's the weakest line of our U23 team. I would have chosen a midfielder instead of a goalie though, but it's not that bad.

 

I will make today my prediction for the 18 player list (not what I would pick, it's what I think the coach will select) let's see how many I get right at the end  this list is assuming all the clubs agree to release the players however:

 

Spoiler

 

GK:

Geronimo Rulli

Augusto Batalla (River Plate)

 

DF:

José Luis Gomez (Lanus)

Emanuel Mammana (River)

Ramiro Funes Mori

Mateo Musacchio

Jonathan Silva (Boca)

 

MF:

Matias Kranevitter (Atlético Madrid)

Andrés Cubas (Boca)

Lucas Romero (Cruzeiro)

Manuel Lanzini (West Ham)

Giovani Lo Celso (Rosario Central)

Lucas Ocampos (Olympique Marseille)

 

FW:

Paulo Dybala (Juventus)

Luciano Vietto (Atlético Madrid)

Angel Correa (Atlético Madrid)

Jonathan Calleri (Sao Paulo)

Cristian Espinoza (Huracán)

 

OUT: Icardi  since Martino doesn't like him.

Remember the CADDA determinate in Maraton that "a bette Mark " the the IOC requiere, for that reason Barzola, Rosa Godoy and Sandra Amarillo are not qualified for Rio, obviusly this is another stupid decision of the terrorific president of the CADDA.

I know that, I'm just counting all the quota we have, even if provisional. I will remove them if at the end they are rejected.

 

And for me it's not a stupid decision, I'm tired of sending a bunch of people that end in last place or abandon the race. We should have harder standars in all "mark" sports, if it were up to me.

I agree partially with you: if we send some B Marks, of old athletes like in the past.......of course i agree but in Maraton is diferent than other specialitys, i dont expect any medal or diplom in the Maraton anyway,

With qualification in Gymnastics we have 189 athletes confirmed

 

Only 11 to go to achieve the round number and -curiously- all-time record of 200.

 

I think we'll have for sure 3 in Judo, 2 in BMX, 2 male golfers, 4 male tennis players and 1 female pentathlete. 2 or 3 more swimmers is likely too. And quotas in Triathlon, MTB and Kayaking are also in the cards.
