Luxembourg - Hungary  2-1 :bowdown:

Came here to mention this. Is this really the team that won their group at the EC last year? This year, they lost to both Andorra and Luxemburg, and playing a draw and narow victory over the Feroe islands.

Honestly I don´t know if Hungary played with their top team or did some experiments with new players, Did not see the match, I was just pointing the result from Luxembourg view, they are really improving in Football last years a lot and this is another very considerable result.

 

In other hand, don´t be so sad, we lost by the same result once there too :p but yeah, you know that´s nothing surprising, we are the world champions in struggling against the so-called small nations :evil:

South American U15 championship is being played right now and, for some weird reason, Conmebol invited Czech Republic and Croatia to play it. But hold on, that's not the strangest thing that is happening, take a look at the results Czech Republic had in this competition:

 

:CZE 2 - 7 :PAR 

:CZE 0 - 7 :CHI 

:CZE 2 - 8 :ARG 

:CZE 0 - 12 :COL (!)

:CZE 1 - 9 :URU 

 

Did the kids went to party every night before matches or they brought their U12 team? :lol:

Interesting, didn´t knew about this, so I made some investigations and found in this article that they are more than 1 year younger than their opponents https://repre.fotbal.cz/u15-o-vyhre-paraguaye-rozhodl-2-polocas/a6680 so basically yes it´s a U13/14 team, the differences are visible in term of growth and strength. plus in this article they mention extreme high temperatures over 40 degrees, weather the guys here are not used to play in, apparently some players did not even were able to continue to play and had to submit medical treatments during the match https://repre.fotbal.cz/u15-cesi-se-v-argentine-vyhry-nedockali/a6757

Slovakia - Norway  1-0  Friendly Match

 

the goal scored by one of our biggest hopes for the future, the young Stanislav Lobotka, yes, the same guy who scored in Wembley and the same talent elected in the this years U21 EURO all-stars

 

 

but this match has also another emotional moment, it was the last NT game of our Ján Ďurica, who played 91 matches for Slovakia, The only player who played all our World Cup and EURO matches. This emotional moments and his tears during the anthems :cry:  Thank you Ďurica for all your work in the representation of the country https://streamable.com/27gkz

    • Lara Malsinier and Alex Insam are junior World Championship medalists from a few years ago. Maybe it was possible to provide them with private teams then and now they could even fight for a single podium from time to time. I mean especially women because there, for example: Canada or France can be in the top, so why not us? Now Rodlauer from Austria has joined the Italian team but for now there is a huge gap to the top and only Sieff and Lara Malsinier are jumping well. There was success in the Summer Grand Prix but with a weak competition. Even 3rd place in a single competition in winter is worth more than winning the LGP with a terrible squad.   It remains to wait but I fear that the most we can count on is a dramatic fight with France and maybe Finland in the mixed competition at the World Championships. Bresadola probably won't return this season, so the inconsistent Insam remains. 
    • When did Kim Min-Seok switch to Hungary?
    • Earlier today, Taiwan beat the USA    Of course it's car from the best US tram but it's still a big deal for Taiwanese baseball
    • And even here we lose to France? I really don't know what's the point of organizing the Olympics if you can't make progress in practically any sport. France has the Olympics in 2030 and there they will definitely prepare 100%, just like for Paris. We can't do that. It's obvious that in ski jumping we have no chance of winning medals, but decency dictates that we should at least win here with a France like that.
    • There is no snow in Lillehammer 
    • Finally the ski jumping season begins 11 teams in the (real) mixed team competition, no Switzerland.
    • Most of our athletes are constantly bothered by something: the pressure to qualify, the miss of pressure when they have already qualified, etc. It's the same in football: at the beginning of the season they are a poor form becouse of a little played and at the end of the season they are tired. They are always looking for excuses. A real champion always plays at a high level, like Sinner, and doesn`t look for 1000 excuses for his poor performance.
    • Think it is mentally difficult for the two teams with the Olympic place guaranteed and the pressure off, whereas everyone else is absolutely playing at 110%.  I'm sure things will be better once they get to Milan. 
    • There's no point in cheating, these were terrible European Championships for us. Retronaz out of form, Constantini with a huge number of big mistakes. Only illness can excuse it... We've probably lost the last 10 matches with Switzerland... It looks like Constantini had the tournament of her life in mixed doubles in 2022 in Beijing and she will never reach this level again.
    • What good is it to us if we took 4th place and lost an important match? If Constantini was sick, I forgive her, but I'm afraid that the Italian team will not exceed a certain level. Yes, they have made progress since 2022, but they lack that one decisive step to become a class team. Here we lost all important matches with teams at our/higher level: Sui x2, Sco x2, Swe. We only won with the one we were supposed to win with. I don't believe in a medal for this team in Cortina. After 2022, it seemed that Constantini could dominate women's curling, but it didn't happen that way. After Sinner's recent successes, I opened my eyes a bit and started to demand more from our athletes, coaches, and officials. I have no intention of being satisfied with 4th place, because with this approach, you won't achieve anything great.
