4. The 4 best results count for every team out of the 5 events. But Poland will get easier draws than us at the WC events because they have a higher world ranking, so I doubt that we can catch them. I think our team is simply not strong enough to consistently get into the Top8 at the WC events. 

 

Poland and Hungary are 9th and 10th in the World Ranking. Since in WC events there is a draw of pairs except for top 4, there's no difference between being 9th or 10th. You both have a 50% chance to get Korea or Germany in r16.

Still possible. At least as long as Italy and France both stay in the top 4. Russia will anyway.

We lost to Hong Kong :facepalm:

 

@phelps How currently looks situation of Polish teams and individual fencers in ranking? How many quotas we would have for now? Can you count or we have to wait for official ranking after end of Championships?

 

I'd say the only team with chances is the women's epee...

 

for what concerns the individual ranking, we'd better wait the end of the championship and then make the proper calculation...

 

p.s. HKG nowadays is a very good team (they were 3rd in the last world cup event in Russia, beating Italy in the quarterfinals)...Choi and Cheung are never to be underestimated also in the individual events...

Well she did take off her mask, when they warned her not to do it. And that's 6 seconds before the end. :facepalm:

 

it wasn't given for that...the red card came because the assistent ref behind the piste literally invented that Di Francisca covered her target with the arm not handling the foil (which is not allowed, of course)...

 

there have been at least 4 or 5 dubious calls (actually, at least 2 completely wrong) in favor of Russia in the middle of the bout, but that one was clearly a burglary, I just don't believe that it was done in good faith...nobody will never make me think the opposite...

The 1st yellow was completly underserved... The second one was correct

 

no, not at all...she asked for permission to change her foil (which was clearly ruined)...

 

and as I wrote before, the red card came for another reason...not because of the mask or any other disciplinary infringment...

    • Earlier today, Taiwan beat the USA    Of course it's car from the best US tram but it's still a big deal for Taiwanese baseball
    • And even here we lose to France? I really don't know what's the point of organizing the Olympics if you can't make progress in practically any sport. France has the Olympics in 2030 and there they will definitely prepare 100%, just like for Paris. We can't do that. It's obvious that in ski jumping we have no chance of winning medals, but decency dictates that we should at least win here with a France like that.
    • There is no snow in Lillehammer 
    • Finally the ski jumping season begins 11 teams in the (real) mixed team competition, no Switzerland.
    • Most of our athletes are constantly bothered by something: the pressure to qualify, the miss of pressure when they have already qualified, etc. It's the same in football: at the beginning of the season they are a poor form becouse of a little played and at the end of the season they are tired. They are always looking for excuses. A real champion always plays at a high level, like Sinner, and doesn`t look for 1000 excuses for his poor performance.
    • Think it is mentally difficult for the two teams with the Olympic place guaranteed and the pressure off, whereas everyone else is absolutely playing at 110%.  I'm sure things will be better once they get to Milan. 
    • There's no point in cheating, these were terrible European Championships for us. Retronaz out of form, Constantini with a huge number of big mistakes. Only illness can excuse it... We've probably lost the last 10 matches with Switzerland... It looks like Constantini had the tournament of her life in mixed doubles in 2022 in Beijing and she will never reach this level again.
    • What good is it to us if we took 4th place and lost an important match? If Constantini was sick, I forgive her, but I'm afraid that the Italian team will not exceed a certain level. Yes, they have made progress since 2022, but they lack that one decisive step to become a class team. Here we lost all important matches with teams at our/higher level: Sui x2, Sco x2, Swe. We only won with the one we were supposed to win with. I don't believe in a medal for this team in Cortina. After 2022, it seemed that Constantini could dominate women's curling, but it didn't happen that way. After Sinner's recent successes, I opened my eyes a bit and started to demand more from our athletes, coaches, and officials. I have no intention of being satisfied with 4th place, because with this approach, you won't achieve anything great.
    • play their best, but only get 1, so  get bronze 6-4!  
    • Oh dear, once again a 50% shot from Constantini when she needed 100%.   blank the end & go into the 10th with the Hammer of Thor.
