Yeah that 0:5 from Yakimenko decided the match.

I'm not sure that Germany can beat Korea. And Hungary-Italy will be great match.

it will be close, maybe...

 

No sorry. Egypt has 121 points already in the OR. Even if they always lose in r32 they'll reach 145 (but they have a good ranking and it will be much more probably). No way they can drop to 17th.

[Vektor 3,195]

Yeah, looking at the current OR, it seems pretty safe to say that KOR, ITA, HUN, GER, RUS, USA, IRI, EGY will be the Olympic 8 in men's sabre, unless one of the European teams (Russia) completely flops in the World Cup.

Wow what a comeback for Ukraine in team epee.

Korea are just destroying Germany...37-17 right now...

Hungary slightly ahead of Italy in the other semifinal match...

I don't like how close that match against Ukraine is in Men's Epee. It would be a disaster for us to not reach the QF.
