hckošice 13,267 Posted September 19, 2023 #11 Share Posted September 19, 2023 Today ended an incredible across all-sports World championship medal streak which started in 2009... A dumb hit at the upper part of the track, when a strong wind blew Matej Beňuš a bit strongly than he expected and pushed him to slightly touch the gate... 2 seconds penalty.. which at the end costed us the medal and the end of this epic streak... I do not know what is going on this year, what did we to the gods... but this 2023 year is just Cruel, complete neverending frustration and disappointement... After losing the Cortina 2026 direct Ice Hockey Quota at the very end thanks absolute non-sportsmanship from , for the first time since the independence of the country we failed to qualify in Canoe Sprint, including our national flagship and eternal medal hope, 4 time out of the last 5 Olympics medalist, the K4 missing the Games for the first time since 1996... Our naturalized wrestler who last 5 years collecting European and World medals left and right failing to qualify to the games again (where he would be basically our biggest and maybe sole medal chance of the Paris 2024)... came today this sorowfull end of a streak and an era... because of weather and now 2023... 2 most painfull penalty seconds in our history probably since the Athens 2004 delayed phantom hit of Martikán Josh and Gianlu33 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dodge 705 Posted September 19, 2023 #12 Share Posted September 19, 2023 A reminder of the ranking of nations from the European games. I expect the European Games quota to go quite a bit down the World Championship rank. France has been assigned a quota for mens and womens K1.

Friday & Sunday’s It’s a Knockout! Races are live on the BBC Red Button Channel & obviously streaming as well. Saturday there is football, rugby etc, so will be streaming only. But plenty of coverage. El Analyzer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
