our league team lost yesterday in UAE with Uganda 3-1. even the fact that it was the last test for Uganda before the upcomming African Cup of Nations and they are visibly in the final preparation mode and our players are already some 2 months in the hibernation mood it´s another prove how fantastic and strong is our football league. better to cancel all this joke and save money  :rofl: only good point of the match, a ton of our young players experienced yesterday their National Team debut :)

 

btw it looks like there many Ugandans in Abu Dhabi

The World Cup will be expanded to host 48 teams, up from 32, Fifa has decided.

 

An initial stage of 16 groups of three teams will precede a knockout stage for the remaining 32 when the change is made for the 2026 tournament.

The sport's world governing body voted through the change at a meeting in Zurich on Tuesday. The number of tournament matches will rise to 80, from 64, but the eventual winners will still play only seven games. The tournament will be completed within 32 days - a measure to appease powerful European clubs, who objected to reform because of a crowded international schedule.

    • Who would have guessed, that our first men's podium of the season won't be from either Yankov or Zamfirov, but from Alexander Krashniak   This pretty much solidifies our men's team as the third strongest in the parallel events after  and  . And there are a couple of top youngsters coming up, so the potential is big for the next 5-6 years.   Too bad this progress is only limited to the parallel. Snowboard cross is again dead after Zhekova retired, while the other "techinical" snowboard disciplines have always been non-existent here..

    • Only 63 goals in the second day.   TUESDAY 13 JANUARY   Men   Sweden-Netherlands 28-0 (16-0)   Finland-Hungary 19-0 (7-0)   Norway-USA 13-3 (7-2)
    • This suggestion has been implemented. If you open the forum's Badminton section, you will get a block with Badminton current and upcoming events: https://totallympics.com/forums/forum/21-badminton/   I will start implementing this also for other forums in the next days. Also this can be implented in the Qualification Tracker pages, with events of that single sport displaying in the respective sport's sections.   EDIT: testing with a Winter Sport event, which currently has some events in progress and some more starting in the next days: Alpine Skiing section
    • So qualification isn't done, and the last few spots are very close with essentially one more race to go.   On the 6th and 7th Canada entered 6 racers in the lower tier North American cup races in Lake Placid. On the 11th there was races again in Lake Placid, Canada only entered 2 (articles say withdrew 4, start list on the 10th says 2 registered, whatever).  If the total amount entered was above 20 then the ranking points for first start at 120 and go down incrementally, with only 2 Canadians entered there were 19 competitors so points for first only start at 90.    The USA only has a shot at qualifying 2 sleds at this point, and Uhlaender appears to have had a shot at catching up to 2nd best among the americans. She came 1st, those 30 points really cost her if that is how the USA nominates their team.   The best 17 countries get one sled, based on how their top competitor is ranked.  is in 13th with 498 points,  is in 14th with 480,  15th 475,  16th 468,  17th 457,  18th 456 and no one else has the ability to gain enough points.  could have received 27 more points,  19 more,  21 more. So a big deal for them, and not appearing in the stories.   The accusation is that Canada did it for their own gain, to protect Channell's chance of qualifying: the 6 countries with the highest ranked 2nd best slider get a 2nd quota.  Channell holds the last spot at 512,  Erlacher is next at 484. Both only race at the World Cup level. However, the next best after that is  Simmchen at 391, who did race in Lake Placid and misses out on 25 points. Both her and her teammate would have to pass both Channell and Erlacher in the rankings for them to achieve a 2nd quota. A miraculous outcome, but that is what Uhlaender is accusing the Canadians of being afraid of. Could be, I don't think so but who knows.  
    • I see, wasn't sure if they had internal trials like Canada had in the past. So Uhlaender will receive 84 points, more possibly if she races again, and Ro has one more race. So very understandable why she would be upset.
