This double semifinal vs was almost endless in olympic perspective, I guess both can be satisfied, with French women and Italian men winning

Honestly i'm disappointed from the Italian lost in women's foil. Maybe I just need to understand that the glorious days with the Italian domination are over

even if we are still quite early in the day, thanks to the results registered so far, we already have the first teams mathematically qualified to the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games:

 

men's Team Foil: and

 

women's Team Foil: + + and

 

 

And we can add as mathematically qualified Italy and Egypt (men), Japan (women)

as I wrote in the previous page (not 100 pages ago, just 1 ), there is no live score nor live streaming from Cuba...

 

however, here you can find the draw for today's team event...

Russian men, too (Italy can't be thrown out of the top 4 and no other European team can catch them)...

I'm definitely not satisfied with the Italian results this weekend...

 

first, epee specialists have been a disaster (in the individual events they weren't even close to the podium and the way the men's team threw the bronze medal away yesterday is more than shameful; moreover, today's team event for the girls doesn't promise anything good...we have to face Romania in the last 16 and if we can pull a miracle out of that bout, China are waiting for us...all this means that we're not going to score reasonable points and we're likely going to drop out of the virtual qualification spots)...

 

then, when things went good (individual foil events and individual men's sabre GP), we're still talking of a bunch of silver/bronze medals...the tendency not to win a single competition continues (and it's clear that we have a big problem with Volpi, out in round of 64 once again...St.Maur proved to be only an exception to a very dangerous situation)...

 

not to mention today's semifinal in the women's team event, with Volpi being a total disaster (replaced by Palumbo way too late) and Di Francisca throwing away a good lead in the last stint once again, this time against Thibus (who already destroyed her in the individual competition)...

 

frankly, I expect a lot more from our fencers...

women's Team Foil

 

Situation after today's event (1 tournament left, in Kazan, RUS in about 40 days)...

 

1. 436 (52) Mathematically Qualified through World Ranking
2. 340 (40) Mathematically Qualified through World Ranking
3. 300 (32) Mathematically Qualified through World Ranking
4. 282 (30) Mathematically Qualified through World Ranking
5. 253 (23) Mathematically Qualified, Asian Continental spot
6. 219 (22) Mathematically Qualified, Panamerican Continental spot
7. 201 (22) (Momentarily Out of the Games, can still hope for Egypt dropping out of the Top 16 of the WR)
8. 199 (25) Currently Qualified, European Continental spot
9. 198 (24) (Momentarily Out of the Games, can still hope for Egypt dropping out of the Top 16 of the WR and to overtake South Korea)
10. 191 (25) (still in contention for the European spot)
11. 184 (23) (still in contention for the European spot)
12. 153 (20) Out of the Games
13. 151 (19) Out of the Games
14. 136  (8) Out of the Games
15. 104  (0) Currently Qualified, African Continental spot (must stay in the Top 16 of the WR to save their place at the Games)
16. 99  (0) Out of the Games
17. 98  (8) Out of the Games
18. 94  (0) Out of the Games
19. 90  (0) Out of the Games

 

Note: in parentheses the number of points currently to be discarded after the last tournament...

 

 

so, we already have 6 of the 8 spots decided...

 

the only competitions left are those for the European Continental place (Hungary have a slim margin -8 points and the same potential discard- over Poland, with Germany further 7 points below -and tbh, their chances are really, really minimal) and the fight of the Egyptian girls to keep their place within the best 16 in the world, so to confirm their African Continental place (provided EGY will score 8 points once again in the final tournament, Brazil most likely will overtake them, meanwhile TPE have to score at least 22 points -12th place- which is highly unlikely...it remains to be seen if SGP, who need 19 points -15th place, not impossible for them- will show up at the final tournament, meanwhile Romania need 25 points -9th place, possible, but really improbable- to kill the Egyptian dream...obviously, if EGY make it to the top 16 in the final tournament and score 18+ points, they are surely qualified to the Olympics)...
