Beyond embarassing. I don't even know what to say so eh :bye:

This is nothing compared to our 7 x 1. Just take it easy and hope for the best in the next match. Thankfully this was the right moment to have a bad day and there are still a big chance to qualify and move ahead.

Total knockdown for Argentina and things have become very, very interesting in this group. Tonight's match is going to be important if someone gets the win. Still nothing over though for ARG, they can win the next 2 matches and safely go through.

 

The SA players fighting like their home was on the line, no fear at all. Every small team should play this way.

 

And an interesting fact, Argentina were 2 matches away from beating Italy's record of consecutive matches without a defeat. They weren't beaten from 2019 (?) i think. It's an insignificant stat for the Argentinian people, but who would have thought the streak would end against Saudi Arabia. I was expecting them to take it from this group, but not this time.

wow. just wow, what a huge surprise :hyper:

 

Renard is indeed a great coach, he almost signed with Iran football federation in 2018, just those stupid guys in IFF changed their minds in last minute and signed that charlatan WIlmots instead :facepalm:

 

it's still really hard for KSA to advance from this group but even if they lose next 2 matches they have a very good reason to celebrate :bowdown:

I'm not even sure if KSA will beat the other teams, I suspect they took their chance today because quite a few of our players were in really bad form.   

  

I think with some severe surgery in the starting lineup Argentina can come back and win the next games but it doesn't matter, the dream of the world cup is over already. You can't come back from such a blow. At least not fully. This is our 1-7.

They can easily get a draw with Poland with Michniewicz as HC. This guy has no idea how to play when our opponents give us the ball :lol:

Not sure if losing to Saudi Arabia is nothing compared to losing to one of the world's strongest teams, even if the numbers are a bit inflated :p

    • 2 things...   first, for what concerns the cooperation between inline skating and speedskating federations...sorry to disppoint some of you, but there's a great cooperation between them   the point is that many "summer" skaters just don't want to try the ice because they have too much to give up for that   you name places like Collalbo or Baselga, but for the "summer skating" guys from centeral and southern regions it's not an option, it's not that they make it for a living with those disciplines, they have to focus on their studies and build a post-competitive sport career and they just can't place themselves into a hole in the mountains when they maybe are studying in some prestigious universities in the big cities   as I already posted more than once, the idea of covering one of those tracks in the mountains was something idiotic, a political concession impossible to be sustained   the one and only chance to build a true legacy and an efficient, attractive national training center was to build a permanent indoor oval in Milan, beside the Forum   that would have given all the "summer skaters" a true opportunity to try the ice experience and at the same time find the most useful, attractive, prestigious places to continue their studies and try and manage them together with their sports career   any other place wouldn't stand a chance   second...don't give Salvini any credit he doesn't deserve...actually, I think he doesn't even know that in Cortina there's a sliding sports track    it's not thanks to him that the Cortina track's building finally went underway 
    • c'mon, guys! relax! sciallatevi un po'!    you're making me sick...it's just the season start and this is a sport where only the world championship (and Olympic, in the specific years) medals count   don't get mad for a couple of races held thousend miles away from home after the team had already passed their first climax (the internal selection)...there are still 2 full seasons before the Olympics
    • Super Round Results   21/11    b.   2-0  b.   9-1   22/11    b.   8-2  b.   9-6   nothing is decided yet, all teams still have a thoretical chance to make the Gold Medal match   Tomorrow, the last day of the Super Round sees  facing the  at Noon local time (4 a.m. CET) and  facing  at 7 p.m. local time (11 a.m. CET)   the medal games are scheduled for Sunday, BMM at Noon local, GMM at 7 p.m. local
    • very poor performance by the US bullpen both Yesterday and Today    not very impressed by this US team for the entire tournament, also in the Mexican first group (Panama deserved to qualify more than them, but they were lucky with the draw and won the decisive direct matchup)   Venezuela confirmed themselves as a very strong team at bat, but with too many troubles on the mound   Today against Japan they had to make a pitching change already in the 1st inning and basically they had to go for a bullpen game, but it didn't come out like the Dodgers'   Japan always on top of their game, even when the pitching staff doesn't perform at best...frankly, they look more and more unbeatable when no MLB superstar is involved (like in this case), but also when it comes down to the top of the pops it's not that they look worse (see 2023 WBC)  there's a serious risk that their domination becomes even too easy, the gap between them and the rest of the world is widening year after year   Taiwan might look like a surprise, but after the 2023 fail, I was sure they were going to rebound and establish themselves among the top teams in the WBSC tournaments, as they are very good in each and every aspect of the game (batting, pitching...maybe a bit less on defense, but you can't have it all)
