According to Dutch teletext, our best fencer, Rafael Tulen, was injured in the semi-final, and his replacement won all his bouts.

[Faramir 445]

Yes, although the best Dutch is by far Tristan Tulen, Rafael's brother.

Quite rare: a Dutch medal in fencing. Last years only an occasionial individual result from Tulen (silver in 2022) and Bas Verwijlen (silver in 2011).

Well, clear win for France in the end but still first ever Euro team medal for NED.

i don't understand what you mean, Italy was on the other side of the table, and the final is over already - mine was not a prediction but a statement of the result.

something really interesting is happening now, our (  ) women epee team did not manage to get to the competiton (as there are no flights from the here) but we have a team in the team event, how you may ask ? 

the foil team is competing in epee ( my guess is for the world ranking)
