rumors say that there'll be 12 groups consisting of 4 each , so it'll be something like archery with round of 24 , maybe the best 4 teams in group stage will get a bye into R16 :d

i'm just kidding , if they will apply the 12 group format , we'll have the standard 2 teams qualifying from each group p.s 8 best 3rd ranked teams in Group stage to qualify to R32 , anyway the winning team will play 2 extra matches instead of 1

Confirmed 48 particpating Nations, 12 preliminary round groups, 32 advance to the KO round (Top 2 of each group and Best 8 3rd ranked)

 

Great news: Plenty of countries can qualify , Bad News: Certainly not Slovakia

The Italian Super Cup :ITA becomes four teams. :(

 

This is what emerged in the assembly of Lega Serie A, which formalized the new format of the competition starting from 2024.

The four team will be: 1st & 2nd of Serie A and the finalists of Italy Cup (or 3rd and 4th of serie A if one or both top 2 will be also in final of Italy Cup)

 

The Lega Serie A has assigned four of the next six editions to Saudi Arabia (2024, 2025, 2028 and 2029), while the venues for the 2026 and 2027 editions will have to be established.

 

The CEO of Serie A league said:

Quote

We have decided to accept Arabia's offer to host four editions of the Super Cup in six years starting from 2024. The next two editions will take place in Saudi Arabia, then there will be a two-year stop in which it will be possible to play elsewhere as well and then he will return to Arabia for another two years. The next edition will have a four-team format and there will also be a friendly, an instrument chosen to try to help the quality of Saudi football. But the choice of the Final Four format is not definitive: it will also be possible to go back based on the commitments of the clubs" :what:

Need also the the hymn at this absurd decision :toast:

In :BOL the referee apparently added 42 minutes in the 2nd half :lol: The match between Palmaflor and Blooming of the Bolivian national championship lasted 132 minutes in constant rain :p

Milan Škriniar (Inter Milan) and Dominika Škorvánková (Montpellier HSC) are the :SVK players of the Year 2022

 

Škriniar won the trophy for the 4th consecutive year, but this time it was apparently his closest win so far, only 18 points ahead of "Stanley" Lobotka from Napoli

    • I thought that was the case.  I just started watching skimo last year, but even then, I didn't recognize any of the women.  I recognized the top Swiss guy, I think.
    • Puripol Boonson seizes home men's 100m sprint gold after going sub-10 seconds in heats   https://www.olympics.com/en/news/sea-games-athletics-mens-100m-final-results-puripol-boonson   First Southeast Asian to go under ten seconds in the 100 meters.
    • Yes, that and a lot of the main medal contenders  either didn't have teams entered/or fielded B-C teams

    • Seriously wish Bialystok will be banned from any European competition and for long time.
    • Unexpected boost for Team .  They are at least going to have a credible excuse if anyone fails any drug tests.     American rapper Snoop Dogg has been named an 'honorary coach' for Team USA at next year's Winter Olympics.   The United States Olympic & Paralympic Committee (USOPC) announced on Thursday the 54-year-old will take on "a volunteer role celebrating and supporting America's athletes off the field of play".   Snoop Dogg named 'honorary coach' for Team US at Winter Olympics - BBC Sport
    • Just now getting around to these results...glad to see USA win a gold.  Didn't think we were much of a contender here.  Home soil luck?
    • Qualification status that could realistically change this week, barring (except where noted) new time qualifying performances :   Men   500m : pretty much done   1000m : pretty much done   1500m : pretty much done   5000m : one outlier at the moment  Semirunniy. He's currently not qualified for the distance being 18/15 in the rankings and R1 time-wise. He could still punch his ticket :    either by getting into the top 15 with a very good result (a podium or even a win would be needed). If it is at the expanse of  Henriksen or, less likely,  Swings, then the loser is out. If it is at the expanse of any other, then  Sasaki is out.  or by hoping Lorello gets into the top 15 at the expanse of Henriksen or Swings. or by going faster than Sasaki (6'08''834) which seems reachable after his 10k, even in Hamar.   10000m : once again Henriksen is on the bubble. If  Maly, Petzold of  Farthofer gets into the top 9 at the expanse of Malfatti or Snellink, then he's out.    Mass-start : not much at stake considering most of the reserve skaters will already receive an additional quota - at the moment    . Morino  will try to enter top 32 and be in those additional quota spots.    Team pursuit : pretty much done   Women   500m : pretty much done   1000m : with  Thorup not cleared to participate one more spot is up for grabs.  Scholz would need to be in front of both Herzog (done as she's not entered) and Czerwonka (7 points) after this final week.  Silaeva would be left out.    1500m : Lamarche not competing and  Zofia Braun being promoted to A division, Poland has got a real shot at a second quota. Braun will need to stay in front of Scholz and Weidemann, who could still finish ahead of her depending on how good Braun fares in A division.  Smedding would suffer from a Polish rise.   3000m : match-up between  Yang and  Horikawa only separated by 3 points. At the moment Yang is out (R2) but if they exchange position in the standings then Horikawa is out (R1). They could also both finish ahead of Hofmann, at the expanse of  Golubeva ultimately.  Jasch has a small shot at a second German quota too, by edging the former two skaters, eliminating them.    5000m : pretty much done   Mass-start :  Santo Rodrigues is hanging on by a thread. The cruelty of it is that those immediately behind her -    - will get an aditional spot anyways, so it does not really matter if they finish in the top 24 ahead of her, except it would allow France to enter a second skater and two girls in the MS.   Team pursuit : three-way asymetrical tie for the last SOQP spot between   and , all in division A. Norway needs to beat both as they can't rely on a time Q, Kazakhstan needs to beat Norway to ensure (if they fail to beat China) the first SOQT spot and avoid the Italian wild-card*, whereas China is pretty safe. *  is currently out but they "only" need to get into a reserve spot to be qualified, which is going faster than 3'00'92 (or faster than Norway if they too decide to skate faster). They were not far off this mark in Hamar earlier this year but the team was in a better shape overall.
