It could happen only in home event :lol: 

yeah...but at least you've been capable of taking advantage of home soil enthusiasm...not every Nation/athlete can...

 

p.s. tbh, a couple of "home calls" have been registered in today's QTF/SF/FIN...;)

I watched his QF against one of our guys (the weakest member of our Sabre team) and when he lost , my reaction was, ah this guy was terrible, you threw your best ever chance away (for a breakthrough in his career)

 

really surprised to see the Polish guy won the whole thing at the end :yikes: he looked amateur to my untrained eyes.

We are still in shock ;) We hope he will repeat his skills in next World Cups. He has 25 years old it's  time for that. This results is a huge suprise for us. It's  a pity that it's not olympic  qualification tournament.

I wouldn't say "amateur", but it's clear that he doesn't have the same technical skills that the top specialists.

 

Yesterday he took advantage of home enthusiasm and a couple of home calls, but, more than anything, by a favourable draw and a lot of mental mistakes by those who faced him.

 

Baher actually wasted a big chance (as Gallo did in the semifinal match) to turn his day from good to great.

in the meantime, in the women's team sabre we're gonna have the most unexpected gold medal match ever...

 

:AZE Azerbajian vs :BUL Bulgaria :yikes: :yikes: :yikes: @Federer91

 

if someone put a few bucks on that, he's gonna change his life soon...:lol:

Is this a lower level World Cup? :d I saw some news about a good performance yesterday in the individual, but that's about it. Strange to see a team success, as we have always had only 1 adequate athlete, if any at all, in fencing. :D

Women's Sabre seems unpredictable right now.

After last night, I wouldn't have guessed on Greece losing to Uzbekistan for example. Two good fencers aren't enough with Mpenou as the weak link in the team.

Stopped watching sports, there are better things in life.

and just another early loss for :ITA Alice Volpi and :ITA Tommaso Marini in the home women and men's GP event in :ITA Turin :facepalm: :hairpull:

 

the men's team sabre guys lost to :HUN Hungary in the semifinal match and now they're also losing badly to the :USA in the bronze medal match.

 

only the women's team Epee girls have reached at least the gold medal match (in a few minutes vs :KOR).

 

not the greatest day for our sport...even for Fencing...:facepalm:
