For the first time in 16 years there won't be an ex-YUG country in the WCh final. The last final like that was won by us against Italy in 2003. 

Wow, interesting fact. 

Last 15 years it was just battle between Serbia and Croatia, and others were fighting for that 2nd place. Hungary declining(up until now), Montenegro declining, Spain and Italy solid as always.

Now we should have very interesting final. Its good for water polo.

yeah, Italian tv commentators were very harsh on that decision...and normally they don't talk about the refs, unless they do something really idiotic...

I have no clue what to expect from us, I feel like we can win the whole thing, but we can also just flop and end up with a 4th place.

Thrid completely unnecessary loss for the german team, very sad. This team could have done something special. :wall:

Attachment is the great fabricator of illusions; reality can be obtained only by someone who is detached.

People really underestimate Spain. Great team with great players and they play great after the debacle in the WCh 2017. Serbia beat them at EC in the final after PSO. But pity that they have Croatia in SF.. Probably no chance for final and quota here.

:rolleyes:

 

But wow, they beat Croatia.

Yikes. Another weak performance. I am afraid that the Olympic qualification won't be easy for us.

      Malinin  opted for the 4-Axel in his Short Program, but faltered, landing him in 3rd thus far (and only 0.05 away from 4th!).  Surely he has the tools to rise back up in the Free Program.  (Also, perhaps this will serve to show him that he is in fact beatable.)

      I think they incorrectly translated Ukrainian word "nahorody" - it is not a full synonym of "medal". Its cocrrect translation is "award". Meanwhile russian tennis playes switched for Potapova ->  Rakhimova ->

      Ukrainian diver Lyskun switches allegiance to Russia, loses all medals | Olympics News | Al Jazeera   'loses all medals'   I would assume Al Jazeera could have been a bit clearer and mention this would presumably only be national medals. I mean, it's not like the Ukrainian federation, or any single federation for that matter, has the power to strip her of her world and European championships medals I hope (not for her sake, but because that would be a super weird precedent)

      Confirmation about the broadcasting rights.   If I'm reading it right, for most of Europe it will now be exclusive to Discovery/Eurosport or whatever brand they use.     For outside Europe, it's on YouTube. For Planet VPN....well, let us know if you find out.   fil-taker-list-25-26-winterberg-1.pdf   Also, should have mentioned above that the Nations Cup races today are just over one leg, whereas there are two runs in each of the World Cup races.

      Surely. Her first coach now works in russia (and grandma lives in russia according to Sereda). They were in contact and despite of full funding from  the girl decided to become the star of russian propaganda.  As I saw in X: "It took the Russians four years of war to find a relatively well-known sports personality to carry out such a propaganda operation."
