mixed feelings about today's Italian results...

 

on one side, we should be happy because Odette Giuffrida won our first Gold Medal at the European Champs since 2008 :yikes: but at the same time we must be very disappointed with all the other results and in particular I'm really worried about Manuel Lombardo, who was competing in "his" -66kg class for the first time in almost a year (last time out, he won the Masters in China in January) and couldn't go beyond the first round (he was unlucky, as he had to face the eventual champion Safarov and actually he didn't even lost on the mat, since he was disqualified for an illegal leverage to the opponent's arm while they were all square)...

however, the issue is not his shape or his talent, but the fact that he has a lot of troubles in making the weight, so he has quite a few chances to compete in his Olympic class before Tokyo 2020 (in 2021) and it's a problem if he does waste those chances...

 

by the way, today is history...and I'm loking forward to tomorrow, when our Olympic Champion Fabio Basile should be back on the mat after a lot of injuries to his elbow and the covid positive test a few weeks ago...

 

about the rest of today's finals, as already mentioned, Van Snick and Perez Box won the award for the longest match of the afternoon, but the fight of the day was the Russian derby in the men's -60kg Gold Medal bout without any doubt...high class judo...

Just now, DaniSRB said:

After gold at Ec for juniors, and bronze at u23 now senior medal for Stojadinov :yes

yeah, that was one of the most outstanding results from today...

 

it looks that she's a very talented girl and might have a very bright future...

 

by the way, Serbia had quite a few good results today (some of them not really expected), not only Stojadinov's medal...

very disappointing day for Italy...

 

Basile started very well, but once he got into the semis, he was dead and gone...he said he wasn't phisically in good shape (understandable...he was just coming off covid-19 quarantine, when obviously he wasn't able to train at all), but I think he also made some capital mistakes under a mental point of view against Shavdatuashvili in their semifinal bout...

no comment on the bronze medal bout...he was clearly not even interested in playing that fight...

 

Alice Bellandi had a very strong competition, but she was heavily penalized by the refs in both the semifinal match against Pinot (very generous call the deciding waza-ari in the golden score period) and the bronze medal match (actually, this was a pure robbery by the Hungarian ref, clearly taking all of his decisions against the Italian girl by prejudice)...

 

the other Italian fighters lost too early in the competition...they're just not good enough (and if they were, they didn't show it at all yesterday morning)...

 

in general, yesterday was Georgia's day on the men's side, with the light of the hyper-talent Tato Grigalashivili shining more than anything...

watching that guy is pure joy, a Judo clinic every time he's on the mat...

 

meanwhile France swept the field in the women's divisions...but that was quite expected, as Agbegnenou and Gahie are the reigning world champions...

at least, Margaux Pinot gifted us with with a nice surprising win (even if it was Van Dijke that had the unexpected win over Gahie in the semifinal)...

 

today is the final day of the individual competitions...the big guys (and girls) are gonna take the center stage...

    • I love that it is more straightforward in relation to the number of quotas and does not allow possible problems as it was in Tokyo and Paris.
    • I love the judo qualification system, for me is the best in all disciplines. It combines a strong circuit, and it allows 100 or so countries to participate in.   So, maybe, if UWW does its job properly, it will be a good thing.
    • China Media Group (CMG) will broadcast all 116 gold medal events of the Milan Winter Olympics live on CCTV-1, CCTV-5, CCTV-5+ and CCTV-16. It will also use technologies such as 4K/8K ultra-high definition to enhance the viewing experience. Live broadcasts of all events will be carried out from 16:00 Beijing time to 06:00 the next day.
    • The strength of the UK is that they are 100% focused on the track, while Italy must to navigate between the track and the road: the line-up is different for practically every event, etc. Paternoster should focus 100% on the track; she won't win anything big on the road anymore. As it is, she's weak both there and there. The situation is different with Balsamo, as she's also having significant success on the road and likely earns the most money there.
    • Discovery+ in the UK have also got their schedule up now.     I notice that only thing listed as being in UHD is the Opening Ceremony though....     
    • The problem over the last few years was that no-one was able to keep pace with the big Katie Archibald turns. Looks to be sorted now.  
    • The women's top 50 is so crammed with athletes from the same five nations that it is not inconceivable they are unable to fill the full quota from the top 50, in which case a third double spot would open up between USA/BEL/GBR
    • That women's pursuit team looks brutally fast. Batter you over the head into submission brutal, perhaps not seen since the early Trott-Rowsell days The 4 minute barrier could be on borrowed time.   The two British women sprinters Finucane and Caldwell also look pretty ominous, indeed the whole women's sprint team looks in some shape and with some depth to get that result without Finucane   Work to do for the British men's teams, but they won't be unhappy either, not to mention Joe Truman's unexpected Kilo win.
    • I prefer to do mine like this guy (https://app.podiumsport.it/) does his "Projected Medals" as probability based rather than straight medal picking... all things being equal, conversion rates should be about the same and the outliers come out in the wash. Unfortunately most people just like medal picking, and think any other approach is weird  
    • So probably: Men Oceania: Americas: Africa: Asia: One of  Europe: One of Host: World Rankings: Combination of  (probably not)  and whichever countries don’t qualify from Asian Games.  Universality: ? Final Qualification Tournament: One of the above in World Rankings    and one of  (most likely) or  seem safe with two quotas. The other will be favourites if a third team gets allocated two.    Women Oceania: Europe: One of Americas:  /  if US is ineligible due to their host quota, if the host quota gets reallocated then Canada will be in contention in the rankings Africa:   Asia: One of   Host: World Rankings: Combination of  (x1?)  (x1/2)  (x1/2), whichever doesn’t qualify out of  / ,  and  ? Final Qualification Tournament: One of above.  Universality: ?    is safe with two quotas between  it’ll be tough for whoever misses out of those three.   nevermind ,
