We are simply not strong in any team sport. In football we are beaten by Spain, in volleyball by France and Poland, in water polo by Serbia and Hungary. It is always the same. 4 years ago we lost to Serbia, now to Hungary, in 4 years probably to Spain or Croatia. We are weak. We don`t have our own disciplines. We don`t have a winning mentality - we lose all penalty shootouts at important events. I would rather have 1-2 team sports in which you are really strong and in which you win, than to get beaten everywhere by other countries.

Don't think so. Your team is shit if compared to the past. They weren't even able to win despite 2 free goals (-1 to ita, +1 to hun) and 4 free minutes with 1 more man. hopefully you will enjoy the 4th place

The Hungarians invest a lot of money in water sports and have a favorable view of World Aquatics. On the other hand, Barelli is at odds with the federation and we have an uphill battle all the time. These are the facts. For Italy to beat Hungary in an important match we have to be 3-4 goals better. And the second thing is that Italy has lost 4 penalties in a row in the decisive stages of tournaments.

Unfortunately, we are worthless as a country. Different federations and arrangements do whatever they want with us. And we pretend that everything is fine. Then Meloni comes to the Olympic Village and takes a selfie with Malago and then talks to Bach. Can you imagine a worse humiliation? They cheat us in boxing, judo, water polo. What next?

    • In my opinion, Trump is a very difficult opponent: he has hard electorate, not voters and if he does something wrong, his electorate forgives him. Secondly, he is an experienced man with a TV past who is doing great in the campaign. He is old but his health is good and it`s hard to beat someone like that. In 2020, Biden won mainly because of Covid and Trump's terrible decisions (Biden also won not by that much then). In my opinion, if the Republicans had put up a polite and well-mannered politician like Mitt Romney, Harris would have had a much easier time winning against him. If Trump were weak, he wouldn`t be allowed to run again after his defeat in 2020.
