In really the 1st day was a complete disaster, we lose a lot of gold possibility (Nibali and Fiamingo) and some medals like men's archery team, shooting (both event) and the 4x100 relay

Ok ...

You never had a realistic chance for a medal in shooting or the relay. Nibali got extremely unlucky, bot before the start of the races he wasnt the favorite for gold. I think if someone wouldve said that Italy will win one medals out of mens road race and mens 400 m free then most italian fans wouldve been pretty happy with that. Of course you are right about your mens archery team, it was really disappointing that they didnt win a medal. Fiamingo wasnt the big favorite for gold, but of course she shouldve beaten the girl from Hungary, i think silver is a good result for her. Today you could win 1 or 2 very surprising medals in judo. 

I think so far out of the best nations Australia, Hungary and USA have overperformed the most. Australia won a surprising gold in mens 400 m free and a very surprising bronze in mens team archery. Hungary won a surprising gold in womens epee and USA won a very surprising gold in womens 10 m air rifle and a surprising silver medal in womens 4x100 m free relay.

Attachment is the great fabricator of illusions; reality can be obtained only by someone who is detached.

I'm surprise too and i'm happy for every good results. We must have a complete visual of the day and not a partially. 

In the shooting Giuseppe was a great outsider and Petra Zublasing is the world champions in the 50m.

In the relay we had a good time in the heats.

In the relay Australia, Netherlands, USA and Canada were clearly ahead of your relay, i think a medal for Italy would have been as big of a surprise as Greece winning 2004 football european championships. In shooting your athletes also were clear underdogs, i think Rossi today has a good shot for gold and your athletes were also very good in mens trap, you can be very proud so far in my opinion.

    • North American rugby quotas ( and qualified automatically)    M: and W: and  
    • I remember Caroline Golubitsky. She competed with Vezzali for a while but not for long. Rita Konig, whom Vezzali defeated in the final of the Olympic Games in 2000, was more famous, as well as Sabine Bau and Anja Mueller. From what I remember, the Germans competed fiercely with us at some point, but they almost always lost.
    • Shemyakina won a bronze medal in 2014 Worlds and was one of our leader but leave the squad due to pregnancy (she has 2 daughters if I'm not mistaking, so she chose family instead of sport). And speaking of foil we have back in the day Sergiy Golubitskyi, who was Olympic silver medalist and won some medals in other competitions and coached his wife Caroline Golubitskyi - one of the German foil specialists. Even in women's foil we had medal in Women's foil at the European championship - it was Olha Leleiko, our current national coach. So no, we are pretty good fencing country, and depending on generations of our athletes some events are more "profitable" for us and some don't. 
    • Shemyakina that was a very strange story. She unexpectedly won the games but before and after she literally achieved nothing. After that success in 2012 she also completely disappeared. It's only in epee that such strange situations. That's why I've always preferred foil and sabre, because the top was more stable there, although that's changing now. The competition has grown a lot all over the world.
