I'm happy and relieved we were able to get these two lightweight quotas! These crews really deserved it.   Also happy two of them are from my city (Fitsiou and Gkaidatzis)!   Great

Without one of the greatest artistic swimmers in history and current coach of Canada's team Yelyzaveta Yakhno, who is coincidentially is Ukrainian, Canada will not be as powerfull, as they are now. Liza didn't receive her flowers because of overrated russian dolls with low artistry comparing to her, so I'm glad for her success with Canadians, but it also got the chop to Ukrainian team. 

P.S. I'm completely forgot that we lost to Israel, so yes, I'm not right here

To be completely fair, you could say the same thing about a lot of teams/athletes, that they wouldn’t be good without a great coach. :d
 

But yeah, she’s done strides with this program.

An absolute disaster for Poland :POL :(

 

With only six athletes and two boats we have reached a historical low in our rowing history. Last time we had this small team in... 1968 with only three athletes (but with only 26 athletes in total possible, so the quotient is very similar in 2024). In the 21st century we always had 20 or nearly 20 athletes qualified, so 6 this olympic cycle is a total disaster.

 

According to the Polish Ministry of Sport, 2024 the Rowing Federation was awarded 14,7M PLN for the targeted preparations to the olympic start (https://www.gov.pl/attachment/af98eca0-deee-41a5-9764-26038d879f58, "Polski Związek Towarzystw Wioślarskich"), which was the 3rd most financed Polish sport federation (after the athletics and canoeing federations - which are both expected to deliver medals in Paris). Even though historically the Polish Rowing Federation was a good performer, something cracked since the last Olympics.

 

The last two years were very sad time for Polish rowing fans. Let us hope it is just a temporary backlash.

      Alpine Skiing FIS World Cup 2024 - 2025

      By copravolley · Posted

      Greece and Portugal also have winter sports centres - but of course these are not homologated routes for World Cup competitions I have never been to Albania personally, so I don't know the country at all. I have been in southern Croatia, though, and there are mountains there but you definitely can't ski there (I was there in the summer, but it's also impossible in the winter). World cup taking place there only in Zagreb.    In general the case of Colturi and Kostelic is completely different: Colturi has no ties to Albania and Janica Kostelic was Croatian and didn't left their country even though at the beginning of her carrier (and also her brother Ivica) her father had to pay for everything and the federation's support was zero. This only changed later. I imagine that the Kostelic family had offers from other countries (Austria, Switzerland, Italy?) to compete for them, which were much richer (at the beginning of the 21st century Croatia was a very poor country and devastated by war). All the more respect for them because they were true Croatian patriots until the end. I can imagine the Colturi family in a similar situation... Her mother would probably negotiate with half of Alpine Europe for Lara to compete for them Which of course doesn't change the fact that the Italian federation completely gave a shit in this situation. They let such talent go in a situation where they hasn`t a single female athlete on the podium of the World Cup in slalom for a dozen or so years. In the giant slalom it's not much better either, only there the older athletes cloud the picture: Brignone and Bassino. However, behind these two there is absolutely nothing...

      Men's Football UEFA European Champions League 2024 - 2025

      Atalanta is probably playing the most beautiful football in Europe right now: spectacular and effective. It's nice to watch and they don't have to spend a lot of money for it.   Inter is playing very economically. It's not impressive but it's consistently collecting points. It's also the only team in the Champions League that hasn't conceded a goal this season.   Milan played very poorly yesterday but they won. They have 9 points and are close to qualifying for the play-offs.
