The Goal: Beat Slovenia to be the best Slov-nation and avoid last place :d, Every single place above 15th place will be a success in other words - Top 14.

Solid start for our boys with a 10-8 win against Hungary! Revenge for losing to them on penalties in the World Championships final last year :p

 

We already qualified for Paris 2024 so there should be no pressure on us, and although we have an Olympic medal and four World Championships medals (and even four World League medals!), surprisingly our men's team has never won a European Championships medal!

 

So the goal here is obviously to finally win a European medal. It would be a bonus if it's gold because we've never won a gold medal in anything at the senior level.

Why was Italy a massive favourite with all the bookmakers, despite Italy having a 'average' record in the past years and Hungary having won lots of big medals? :yikes: 

Because Hungary is playing with very few of their top players as they have already qualified for the olympics, it's pretty much a B (or maybe even C) roster. While Italy has not yet qualified and plays with exactly the same roster compared to the last world championship.

Now it makes a lot of sense, thanks :d

    • Yes, he is ones of the first supporters of Milei, owner of one of the most important stock market of Argentina (Bull market), he was peronist and for "unknown reasons" start to be libertarian.   Even being libertarian in my case, i have to admit that him is one of the dumbest of "Milei supporters" and a clown when  he is in TV, he made me feel  embarrassed in many occasions.   Camila Giorgi being with him is.......inconceivable.
    • Ya but the replacement is Pat Bondi, a choice that is only better in so far as Pat Bondi isn't credibly accused of having had sex with multiple underaged girls.   Also, you might recognize this name: Pete Hoekstra has been nominated to be the US ambasador to Canada.
    • Camila Giorgi has a new BF Ramiro Marra. Apparently he's some politician/journalist from Argentina. One of Milei's supporters dare I say? @LDOG@konig            
    • Skeleton Tour moves on to Yanqing  this weekend.  Asian Cup races tomorrow, then the World Cup on Saturday, and then possibly more Asian Cup next weekend before everyone moves over to Altenberg for the start of the full Skeleton / Bobsleigh tour again. 
    • 2-1.   But it's good to have a great champion in the squad. I've been waiting for this my whole life. I wish we had such stars in every sport.
    • But he beat Mouat, who seems to be almost unbeatable 
    • Argentina has a really solid lineup, especially if they have prepared seriously for this event. Of course they don't have a champion like we do, but in this format it is enough to win 1 match to play the decisive doubles.
    • Today we must to beat Argentina. It looks like Sinner will have to win all the singles and doubles for us to defend the title. So far, the 2nd and 3rd favorites before the tournament have already been eliminated: Esp and USA.
