I'm surprised there's apparently not some extra criteria they need to fulfill. You know, winning the world title without losing a set or something.

Quota for  and  in women's.   It's the first time Latvia qualify in women's beach volleyball.

Hahahaha, oh yes there are!! Dutch women must end up once in the top 5 at a 4**** or 5*****-FIVB-tournament. For me it's a mystery why the men doesn't have this criteria.   Dutch NOC*NSF

* :LAT & :GER qualified thanks to I don't know which absurd criteria (in the 3-way tie between :LAT, :GER & :ITA, the Italian pair have a better set & point ratio of the Germans, but still they're out of the tournament :mumble:)...

Should be total head-to-head points from comparing only those three pairs. LAT +5, GER -1, ITA -4

Wait, so if the Italians had lost on purpose the 2nd set against GER once reached 19 points instead of winning it they would have advanced? :facepalm:

probably they didn't even know this rule...I'm pretty sure they thought about winning (to close the door to every other option) or, at worst, they had to count on the set & then point ratio...

 

otherwise, if they knew that rule, they Marta, Viktoria and all of their coaches are just a bunch of idiots (hopefully they will qualify in any case through the WR, but if this was their only chance, I just can't believe they made such a "tactical" mistake)...

 

p.s. fivb rules for tie-breaking suck big time! once again...

I had a look on YouTube and they were simply outsmarted by the Germans, who needed a few minutes of "medical assistance" at 20-19 and then threw away the set with a service fault.

 

Yeah, rules that allows this to happen suck big time.

Heaving as a first tie breaker the matches against each other is not that unusual. It's done at Football European Championships as well, for example.

 

I'm talking about giving more importance to points difference rather than set difference (or ratio)...that creates situations where losing a set is better than winning it.

ITA-GER 1-2 (15-21, 21-19, 9-15) = GER advance.

If it ended 0-2 (15-21, 19-21) ITA would have advanced (that's why the Germans threw the 2nd set imo). But ok, that's the rule and so be it.

      The olympic charter is toilet paper. Russia was suspended because otherwise western sponsor companies would pull out and some big countries would've boycotted Paris. Money is the only thing that matters to IOC.

      Remember that Russia's IOC suspension was for a "breach of the Olympic Charter because it violated the territorial integrity of the NOC of Ukraine" not for any other reason. Restoring Russia without that changing would have huge repercussions for other nations.

      It’s just a great weasel word.   We all want  to come back to International sport "when they are in compliance". But there are very differing opinions on what that means.

      Triathlon WT World Championship Series 2024

      By Grassmarket · Posted

      So, kind of forgotten about at the end of the summer season, we have two events to go in the World Triathlon Championship Series, the last WTCS regular season races of the year in Weihai , then the Final in  in mid-October.  All to play for because there are double points up for grabs in the last race, so effectively nothing really decided yet.  Races are tomorrow morning  time, so pretty much overnight in Europe.   Races are full Olympic length and apparently a hilly cycling course.  Here's the situation and preview for the Men.     World Triathlon Championship Series Weihai ready for another epic Wilde vs Yee battle | World Triathlon Championship Series   And for the women   Women's World Triathlon Championship Series rankings to heat up in Weihai | World Triathlon Championship Series

      "once it returns to compliance" would mean it renounces its claim to Crimea... Can't see that happening any time soon.

      it happens when you think too much ahead about the next match (vs Brazil) while you have a tough opponent ahead. they gave up 4 silly goals in the first half and then it was a mountain to climb.  Iran had a last penalty exactly in the last second which hit the bar   have to admit Iran played terrible the entire match and didn't deserve the win but Morocco is also a very ugly team. lots of acting, deceiving, diving and protesting in the 2nd half. putting Iran in 5 fouls very early which made the team playing cautious

      Morocco won after almost being stolen the victory by the refs. Those officials should be sent home after calling that joke foul in the last second.
