Oh my God I wanna cry :cry: I'm so happy, finally a medal, and a gold one!!! :champion::cheer::clap:

Congrats, of course i would have preferred a gold for Germany, but France taking the gold is better than Australia or New Zealand taking the gold, especially because you also have been pretty unlucky in Rio so far.

 

Its crazy that the german team still won the silver, although they couldnt have performed any worse. This could have been the easiest gold ever, but Klimke and Auffarth obviously were satisfied with their gold from 4 years ago and didnt want to win another one ...

Meanwhile, this is the current standings in individual competition.

 

:GER Jung 40.90

:FRA Nicolas 42.00

:AUS Burton 45.60

:USA Dutton 47.80

:NZL Johnstone 51.30

 

 

Also I'm happy to report that :BEL Vanspringel made it into jumping final in 25th place. He is only a part-time rider while his full-time job is being a station master in Belgian railways. :d That's so cool

Finally a medal for Germany Well done :yes

Yeah, we always start slow, i think 4 years ago it took even longer for us to win a medal. This time Biedermann (mens 200 free), Engleder (womens 10 m air rifle) and Hausding/Klein (mens 10 m synchronized) already could have won a medal, but it wasnt meant to be apparently ...

I think Jung will make at least one mistake in the second round, he didnt look too convincing in the first round, Nicolas could win his second gold today.

    • I remember that in 2017 i do a medal table excluding all the athletes from the big four ( ) and Mongolia won (14 gold, 2nd Taipei with 7). I'm curious to see if this will change.
    • 3 NOCs won their first medal: (in an Olympic event!), and    
    • I have been told these are the 34 NOC's who attended the Chefs de mission meeting recently (doesn't mean these are the final 34 scheduled to compete)    (did not compete in 2017)   (did not compete in 2017)     (debut, curious to see what they will compete in) (debut)         (have only competed in hockey before, but will be in a new sport this time) (debut)        11 NOC's not present:     (the most surprising as they have an active skier atm)          
    • The CANCER  is attacking Lebanon     
    • Copa Libertadores, Copa Sul-americana ans Brazilian footbal league - Football   Nascar Cup playoffs   Thats all I think.
    • Really relaxed week (at least for me), off the top of my head I’ll only be watching the Bills-Jaguars game in NFL, WTT China Smash, Athlos in athletics, the GSOC Hearing Life Tour Challenge and maybe some Canucks pre-season games.    No ATP/WTA tennis. 
    • Wait they are hosting a Skater XL event as their esport thingy? looooooooooool, that's hillarious.
    • After 3 months UEFA have finally acknowledged, that there was a huge mistake in the Germany - Spain match and the Cucurella handball should have been a penalty  Well la di da, that was evident for everyone and their blind dog, except for one fraud named Anthony Taylor and his helpers. Give that man more awards.
