Football Discussion | Qualification to Summer Olympic Games Los Angeles 2028 Road to LA 2028

The very talented 17 yo Konstantinos Karetsas announced he will play for his parents' country :GRE instead of his birth country :BEL

 

The Belgians do not seem happy but as a Greek, we have been in that position many times with dual citizens so it is nice for it to work in our favour sometimes too :d

 

I mean in basketball we could have Vezenkov but instead he chooses to play for his parents' country :BUL, despite never living there, when with Greece he would qualify for major tournaments and be one of our starting players, and for Bulgaria they rarely qualify for anything...

Italian football had its share of shocking surprises this season, some that maybe you would not see years ago.

 

So after Internazionale beating Lazio 6-0 away earlier in the season, yesterday it was Atalanta Bergamo's time to put 4 unanswered goals in Torino over Juventus.

 

Taking the post to a more close theme towards LA 2028, given the birthdate of the scorers last night, I'd say Retegui and Lookman would have chance to make one of the over 23 players in the squad, of course if their teams qualify.

I had high expectations for Motta, but Juventus have been playing awfully almost the entire season.. The CL elimination was disastrous and they are barely hanging to top 4 in the Serie A. And with their schedule it's very possible they miss the CL next season and even dropping out of the Europa League. If i was in the Juve board i'd start panicking. And they also have the World Cup in the summer.

 

Italia has been having a disastrous year in Europe in general. After being the top nation the past 2 years and almost getting 9 teams, now they are losing the extra CL spot and it's not sure if they'd even have a team in the 1/2 in Europe. :wall:

Vivianne Miedema scores a brace to give Manchester City an unlikely advantage over Chelsea into the Champions League quarter finals second leg.

The difference was made after the break with none of the Chelsea stars as Lucy Bronze, Lauren James or Mayra Ramirez able to counter on the board.

The women's soccer World Cup will be held in the :USA (and apparently other CONCACAF countries) and in 2035 the Home nations :GBR will host. 

 

Apparently Infantino wants to expand the field to 48 teams :facepalm:

    • An overall failure for Poland who was supposed to run away with the promotion especially after Spain lost in the first game of the tournament
    • Spring Nationals, Day #2   sleepy and somehow disappointing day in Riccione...until the last individual race of the day, when the unthinkable happened: the next big thing in Italian swimming revealed herself well earlier than expected    Alessandra Mao, in fact, despite being only 14 (not even sure she already turned 14, actually), won the National title over the women's 200m freestyle in 1.58.86    given that she basically doesn't have a decent start nor turns and she's not doing any power training in the gym yet, I hope (and think) she has room to become a world star in the next few years   Today's other champions:   women's 50m back: Sara Curtis, 27.90   men's 50m fly: Lorenzo Gargani, 23.32   women's 100m fly: Costanza Cocconcelli, 58.04   men's 100m breastroke: Nicolò Martinenghi, 59.16 (world champ qualifying time...good to see the Olympic champion back on track, despite not in his best shape both mental and physical); in the same race, Ludovico Blu Art Viberti slept big time in the morning heats and was forced to swim in the B Final, which he won in 59.04 (but since he didn't do it in the A final, the time is not accepted as a world qualifier for now)   women's 200m breaststroke: Francesca Fangio, 2.23.67 (only 7/100 of a second outside the world champs qualifying time)   men's 100m back: Christian Bacico, 53.61
