I still hate this team but, obviously, im glad for the qualification and with victory against our biggest rival.

 

AT LAST Gondou was from the beggining being the top scorer coming from the bench.

 

I dont see too much the brazilian team in this tournament but for i watch, is one of the worst brazilians team i have ever seen counting U 17, U 20, U 23 And senior team, with very few interesting player and NO REACTION at all after the argentinian goal.

It was painful watch this game. Our team couldnt even oass the ball correctly.

 

We had a lot of cuts of athletes for so many reasons. We have juch better players than those who competed, but they wont allowed by their teams or got injured.

Kennedy was the only player doing anything.  

  

Overall, Brazil was missing way too many players to play any decent football (but so was ARG, to a degree).  

  

If Scaloni is the coach and the best possible eligible players are present (big if) it shouldn't be too difficult to win a medal taking into account how many big teams failed to qualify.

Thanks for the explanation, i imagine what hard was for you to watch this match, while i was watching the match i thought "this is not Brazil" more than once.

Yes, I recently read somewhere that Brazilian federation is having a lot of conflict & even FIFA threatened Brazil with sanctions( possible Ban) due to government interference in running the football federation. Is it related to current president of the CBF or the election in CBF?

It started because of a problem that happened during the last election. It is complex but the votes for president come from Clubs (First and Second Divisions) and Federations from each Brazilian state. The votes from Federations have a bigger weight (They worth twice or three times more). Seems something didn't occur correctly during the election in 2018, and since then there is a burocratic dispute for the throne.

 

In few words: it is a bunch of corruption.

 

We got without a president during some weeks because of that (actually we still are without one, because he is completely idiot). He found a way to come back, and now I don't know what is gonna happen.

 

They said a new election would happen last month, but once the president is back, I think this idea  was put away.

 

As for the ban from Fifa, I really dont believe on it. It is easier Fifa does something similar what IOC does with Boxing than banning one of their biggest brand.

    • 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.
    • Sinner probably won't play in another edition of the Davis Cup. That shouldn't come as a surprise. Next season, Wimbledon and maybe Paris should be the goal.
    • No, our epee was good always, we have Shemyakina, who was Olympic Champion in 2012, Reizlin with bronze in 2020, medalists of Worlds like Kryvytska (who is our finisher today), Svichkar (who is our finisher in men's side) and Stankevych, European champion Kharkova, medals in other conpetitions from men's team epee who were one of the main contenders in Tokyo, but unfortunately failed to take a medal. 
    • Does Ukraine have good relations with Poland, or are they more cold, like, for example, Italy with France?
    • Until recently, Ukrainian fencing was just Kharlan and sabre. Maybe epee sometimes. I don't remember them ever was strong in foil. There was a time when Russia, Romania and Poland were strong in foil at that time when Italy dominated but I don't remember Ukraine anymore.   Hungarian women with Aida Mahomed were too strong for many years.
    • No surprise with Aaron Judge winning AL MVP and Shohei Ohtani winning NL MVP awards.   Ohtani is the second player in history to win MVP in both leagues. Frank Robinson (1961 Reds & 1966 Orioles) was the only one before.
