Croatia lost all their 4 games against South American teams at World Cups including the Argentina-Croatia 1-0 in the last preliminary group match in 1998 or Ecuador-Croatia 1-0 match in 2002

This referee isn´t really popular among the players of todays match, he officiated the matches where both teams lost and were eliminated :d CRO-MEX 1-3 in 2014 and ARG-GER 0-4 in 2010 Quarterfinal

Olympic gold means nothing in football (World Cup does of course), it's just as good as being world junior champion :p 

 

Olympic gold is shunned as if it was not important, but it's funny that in recent times no nation was able to hold both Olympic and World Cup titles at the same time. The last nation to do this was Italy in the 50s, I think, and it was such a different time that we cannot really compare.

Well that's perfectly logical, since they are two entirely different competitions with entirely different teams and generations playing in them. The Netherlands winning Euro U17 this year doesn't make them favourites to win Euro 2020 for example, it has zero effect on each other :p

    • Medalists Gold-  Team Schwaller (Xenia Schwaller, Selina Gafner, Fabienne Rieder, Selina Rychiger) Silver-  Team Einarson (Kerri Einarson, Val Sweeting, Shannon Birchard, Karlee Burgess, Krysten Karwacki) Bronze-  Team Wråna (Isabella Wråna, Almida de Val, Maria Larsson, Linda Stenlund, Moa Dryburgh)
    • some changes in the team and less importance to the sport, the two big teams until 2022/2023 ( and ) in south america started to decrease a lot and in the other hand the 3rd in South America () is growing a lot, is really impressive. We are currently the favourites for the LA2028 quota
    • Last few weeks of the World Cup season for winter sports (and Junior Worlds, depending on streaming), Men's Curling Worlds, Saquarema Elite 16, and some tennis   That's it unless I'm missing something, not much going on    Which is a good thing honestly, very busy next couple of weeks.
    • What happened to Brazil's women's team? On the other hand it looks like Argentina may be the top South American team on the women's side. Defeating Spain, China and South Africa was unlikely up until this year
    • These are the teams I think will qualify for the WC this window:           Hoping for some debutants to qualify!
    • defeats  7-5 for gold, Schwaller goes from junior world champions to world champions only two years later   win bronze 8-5 over  
    • Honestly, it’s not very clear what is happening in Italy — anything could happen. There is extremely high turnout, and no pollster, politician, or newspaper had predicted it; now they’re all there throwing out data. No one has any idea why people voted, also because it was very technical and almost empty polling stations were expected. It will be interesting to understand whether this is a protest vote against the government or a protest vote against the judiciary.
