Romania 0 - 0 Liechtenstein, how about that, my friend?:yikes: We are very strong before the start of the EURO:sick:

Simple baffling the opponents and making them underestimate before suddenly "surprising" everybody and winning the whole thing, no, no, my friend that was our trade mark know-how tactic in the past we know it by heart... Not going to fall in this trap, sorry. :p

I wish it was a trap, but unfortunatly for us we can't play football, the ball is running and hidding from us. Just look at the highlights and you'll see that our players are not capable to score a goal with 202nd place in FIFA ranking. If we spoke about jokes, we can say that we are undefeated in both matches ( two draws vs Bulgaria and Liechtenstein).:p

Yep, well, head´s up. It is still only the preparation, nobody will even remember it once you´ll succeed at the final tournament. It is all what matters at the end.

 

In Hockey we usually flop extremely at the worlds after having great preparation, I remember we won once all matches before the tournament and then almost ended relegated at the worlds. In opposite our last medal from 2012 came after losing all 8 pre-tournament matches. So, you see :d

    • Non-Olympic Athlete, Moment of the Year and Olympic Spirit Award are the ones lacking the most. Paralympic Athlete and Breakthrough also don't have a lot of votes.
    • Do you have or have you ever had an modern ice track?
    • Still no progress in the Italian team: 2x 4th place in men's singles and women's doubles+ a fall in the team relay. Men's doubles and women's singles without any progress for years. What's worse, our women's doubles also significantly lowered their level: without a single podium in the World Cup in this season. As of today, I'm betting on 0 medals in Cortina for us, excluding some miracles on the home track.
    • There is some progress at Barp and Carollo but almost everything is still based on Pellegrino. In the men's we lost a great talent - de Fabiani and Davide Graz - they are at an age where we have a generation gap in these age groups: 1994-2000. In the women's I`m happy with Monsorno's progress in sprints but the last podium WC in the women's category was in... 2011. We wasted 15 years in the women's category and now we are only waking up with 1 year to go until the games in Cortina, when we should have a ready team like Germany (I will skip Scandinavia because of its completely different potential).
    • Italy doesn't exist in women's technical competitions without from Brignone and Goggia - both over 30 age. Unfortunately Bassino has been out of good shipe since from last season in the giant slalom and she is unrecognizable in some competitions. In the case of Goggia I also don't really believe in regular podiums in the giant slalom - she can't have falls and win in the downhill and super-G. The giant slalom is just a bonus.   The Italian women's slalom has basically been non-existent for many years. One Peterlini qualifies for the 30 and doesn't finish half of the competitions. I can't understand how it was possible to lose Colturi in a situation where other Italians have fallen so badly. Unfortunately it's not the Italian federation that should be setting the conditions here but it's Colturi and her mother - a talent on par with Shiffrin at her age. 
    • In relay yes, but we have 8 more from our legend Natalya Yakushenko back in 2008 and earlier
