So far everything is going according to plan for german fencing. Hopefully they won't mess it up in the remaining competitions.

"According to plan" is not sufficient. 

As of today it will be a very tough battle with Italy in men's sabre in Poland in women's foil and both teams could end up without a quota.


Best option for a team quota might be men's foil, but here indeed tomorrow will be crucial.

Women's foil seems a bit more predictable, this is what I would go with for tomorrow:

 

1. :ITA  2. :USA  3. :JPN  4. :FRA  5. :CAN  6. :CHN  7. :GER  8. :POL 

 

Which would give us this Olympic ranking before the final 3 World Cup events.

 

1. :ITA  296 pts - World 1

2. :USA  260 pts - World 2

3. :FRA  224 pts - World 3

4. :JPN  216 pts - World 4

---

5. :CAN  194 pts - America

6. :CHN  170 pts - Asia

7. :GER  146 pts - Europe

8. :POL  144 pts 

9. :HUN  130 pts

10. :KOR  126 pts

11. :HKG  123 pts

12. :UKR  122 pts

13. :ESP  116 pts

14. :ROU  107 pts

15. :EGY  100 pts - Africa

16. :AUT  97 pts

17. :MEX  72 pts

Amazing, didn't see that one coming at all, :POL takes the gold from :ITA in Italy. 

After many times, when our fighter goes near medal zones in important events we finally did it. Heh and it was in Italy! Amazing story

Congratulation girls!

I think you don't understand what the plan is ...

They try to become so bad that their funding will be completely cut.

Ok so Kharlan qualified at the OG via special quota at least (it was suggested by our favorite Thomas Bach) :hyper:

Always knew that he was a great guy. He is an olympic fencing champion after all.

    • This season? It's a pity that we couldn't try fight for him, especially considering our problems in the sprints. 
    • Lara Malsinier and Alex Insam are junior World Championship medalists from a few years ago. Maybe it was possible to provide them with private teams then and now they could even fight for a single podium from time to time? I mean especially women because there, for example: Canada or France can be in the top, so why not us? Now Rodlauer from Austria has joined the Italian team but for now there is a huge gap to the top and only Sieff and Lara Malsinier are jumping well. There was success in the Summer Grand Prix but with a weak competition. Even 3rd place in a single competition in winter is worth more than winning the LGP with a terrible squad.   It remains to wait but I fear that the most we can count on is a dramatic fight with France and maybe Finland in the mixed competition at the World Championships. Bresadola probably won't return this season, so only the inconsistent Insam remains. 
    • When did Kim Min-Seok switch to Hungary?
    • Earlier today, Taiwan beat the USA    Of course it's car from the best US tram but it's still a big deal for Taiwanese baseball
    • And even here we lose to France? I really don't know what's the point of organizing the Olympics if you can't make progress in practically any sport. France has the Olympics in 2030 and there they will definitely prepare 100%, just like for Paris. We can't do that. It's obvious that in ski jumping we have no chance of winning medals, but decency dictates that we should at least win here with a France like that.
    • Finally the ski jumping season begins 11 teams in the (real) mixed team competition, no Switzerland.
    • Most of our athletes are constantly bothered by something: the pressure to qualify, the miss of pressure when they have already qualified, etc. It's the same in football: at the beginning of the season they are a poor form becouse of a little played and at the end of the season they are tired. They are always looking for excuses. A real champion always plays at a high level, like Sinner, and doesn`t look for 1000 excuses for his poor performance.
    • Think it is mentally difficult for the two teams with the Olympic place guaranteed and the pressure off, whereas everyone else is absolutely playing at 110%.  I'm sure things will be better once they get to Milan. 
    • There's no point in cheating, these were terrible European Championships for us. Retronaz out of form, Constantini with a huge number of big mistakes. Only illness can excuse it... We've probably lost the last 10 matches with Switzerland... It looks like Constantini had the tournament of her life in mixed doubles in 2022 in Beijing and she will never reach this level again.
