Some of you might know that :INA will play against   :ARG in a friendly on Monday.
 

The hype was so high here but after it was clear that Messi will not be playing, the situation became Messy :p 

 

Quite a lot of people are reselling their tickets because basically the match now has not much left to offer. My friend after he got his hand on the tickets he directly sell it to a scalper waiting at the exit lane of the ticket booth…

Our staff got scared because of the people harassing the team in China and didn't want the same there.  

  

I'm surprised the organization didn't put a "Messi clause" in the match contract (less money if he doesn't play). That would have been the effective way to secure his presence.

Yeah idk what the organizers are planning.
Originally the coach asked the federation to play with a slightly stronger (team among FIFA top 100) opponent and then some crazy idea started then boom let’s invite Argentina.

 

Clearly our federation did not plan this match well, while people are hyping this and that. Now it’s like Argentina has a stopover flight and decided to play some football with a random team to spend the waiting time lol

    • I remember Caroline Golubitsky. She competed with Vezzali for a while but not for long. Rita Konig, whom Vezzali defeated in the final of the Olympic Games in 2000, was more famous, as well as Sabine Bau and Anja Mueller. From what I remember, the Germans competed fiercely with us at some point, but they almost always lost.
    • Shemyakina won a bronze medal in 2014 Worlds and was one of our leader but leave the squad due to pregnancy (she has 2 daughters if I'm not mistaking, so she chose family instead of sport). And speaking of foil we have back in the day Sergiy Golubitskyi, who was Olympic silver medalist and won some medals in other competitions and coached his wife Caroline Golubitskyi - one of the German foil specialists. Even in women's foil we had medal in Women's foil at the European championship - it was Olha Leleiko, our current national coach. So no, we are pretty good fencing country, and depending on generations of our athletes some events are more "profitable" for us and some don't. 
    • Shemyakina that was a very strange story. She unexpectedly won the games but before and after she literally achieved nothing. After that success in 2012 she also completely disappeared. It's only in epee that such strange situations. That's why I've always preferred foil and sabre, because the top was more stable there, although that's changing now. The competition has grown a lot all over the world.
