Okay, disaster avoided, the girls beat Poland in women's sabre. We need one more very important win against Spain or Greece for the quota.

Predictable one-sided matches in women's foil. Men's epee can be the complete opposite of that.

Looking at how the ranking is shaping up, there will be some heartbreak in women's sabre.  can take a quota away from a top tier team, they probably will, as long as they try to win the quota.

The fight for the quotas will be insane.

 

It appears Kharlan doesn't need Bach's help, Ukraine will handle it their way.

And of course we are going to lose with the most minimum difference to Japan. They were leading us with 8-10 points before Ilieva completely destroying Emura at the end... Atanasova should have competed earlier too as she gained a lot as well...

Women's foil team lost against the US, will play for the 5-8th places.

 

Men's foil team will fence against Chile in the Round of 16, should be an easy win for Poland.

I just can't stand those losers of the women's sabre

 

they absolutely lack both talent and mentality

 

I'm more than disgusted! 

 

however, also the epee specialists among the men are trying to suicide against  

 

Vismara a total disaster...and our coaches let him play also a second stint where he blew a very big lead out

 

now it's Di Veroli getting mad vs Jurka in a very close finish (it looks we have some electrical malfunctiong, too...really what we need right now )

[Vektor 3,326]

Disaster,  upsets  in men's epee.... we got one of the most talented team with two World Champions and this happens. Why do we have to make the qualification hard for ourselves?
