they didn't do anything also in cadet WCH , i don't think this's just a bad luck in the draw 

 

that's right but you also can't compare of the level of WCH with here. in World Champs we have something like 20 wrestlers in each weight. half of them are good to win a medal. while here we have 6 and there are 1 or 2 very weak wrestlers in each weight. of course this is still hard to win the gold because we have top 2 of the world in each weight but sometimes the 3rd medal goes to someone not-that-good.

 

I mean in this level of the competition. Egypt deserved at least 1 or maybe 2 medals in wrestling.

there's no update for total scores in official site in athletics , so u have to bring a calculator and count after each attempt in throwing events the rankings ! Athletics for me is the most annoying event in this Olympics

2 athletes only in heat 1 of women's 100m hurdles heat 1

Boxing started and our boxer got robbed by the judges. Can we seriously kick this sport of the Olympics?

No where, I was looking at the scores. Two judges had Canadian 30-27 when I looked but it has changed (so probably an error).

 

Looks like they changed the boxing format as well for boys'

The best two qualified boxers are seeded and will compete first in the Preliminary Round 2. There is a random draw for the four other boxers (unseeded) for the Preliminary Round 1. The winners of the Preliminary Round 1 will progress to the Semifinals; the losers will box against the seeded boxers in the Preliminary Round 2. The winners of the Preliminary Round 2 will progress to the Semifinals; the losers will box for fifth place. The losers of the Semifinal bouts will compete for the bronze medal, and the winners will advance to the final bout. The winner is awarded the gold medal and the loser the silver medal.

by a quick calculation. it seems our discus thrower finished 4th here ah. 4th place is the worst possible result

 

NZL, PUR and POL won the 3 medals.
