tonight @ 9 p.m. CET in Pesaro, :ITA vs :ESP, key match for both teams (and because of the stupid Fiba qualifying rules and "windows", both teams are missing a lot of their key players :facepalm: :wall:).

we had a game vs China today "at home" and surprisingly there were only Chinese fans in the stadium booing our team and cheering for China. why ? because since last month Iranian fans are not allowed into any stadium in any sport. yet they allowed the visitor team to had something like 200-300 supporters in the stadium. how is that even possible?! :facepalm::facepalm:

 

on other hand Iran has to host Australia on Monday and the Australian team has no intention to come and play the game. they are not coming to Tehran, that's a sure thing. apparently it will be a 20-0 win for Iran but we never know until FIBA officially confirms it. Iran needs at least 1 win in next 3 games to qualify for the World Cup. I won't complain if Australia gifts a most needed win like that.

FIBA already announce that China qualified. But it's different from my calculation though I know it's very likely to happen sooner or later. I am not sure if it's related to the possible withdrawal drama.

even that doesn't guarantee China's qualification. China will qualify for sure but that's not 100% confirmed yet. it's probably just a mistake

 

btw FIBA officially confirms the 20-0 win for Iran

it was a really tough match, played in an amazing atmosphere.

 

in the end, the experienced Spanish players won at the OT and now Italy are really in trouble, as we have to win at least 2 more matches, first in Georgia (and this team doesn't have both size and power to match our rivals) and then at home against Ukraine (our bete noir, who beat us in Milan at the recent European Champs).

 

I don't even think about winning the last match in Spain...it's basically impossible.

 

we're seriously risking to throw 3 years away. :facepalm:

We had a bad loss against Latvia, we should beat Belgium tomorrow as SOME of our Euroleague guys will be there.

 

Also I want to mention that Partizan is letting their Serbian players play for the Serbian national team during this window, but they are not letting Papapetrou play for Greece. I don't think it's a coincidence that they are in the same group as us of course. So much for the "brotherhood" between our two nations...

      Yesterday results:  VS  33-21,  team continued their unbeaten record (35 game without losing in WCh since 2017) the game started for  and score reached 10-3 after 15 min, better performance from  team led to closing the gap to 15-12 by half time, the 2nd half had a margin favor for  till minute 40 when the Danish team start scoring 8 consecutive goals without response, 12 minutes until Brazil scored again, during that blackout time  GK Martins did really well but his team mates were not able to break the great wall of Nielsen. hard luck for  and wish they continue such great performance in next tournaments.     VS  31-30, the most improved and best performer so far  (except  for sure) had a great night yesterday. to get the summary of the game,  were playing  GK Wolff who made 21 saves in the game !! 21 !!! I believe at least 17-18 of them were one on one. on the other hand both  GKs did well saving 12 shots (Marques saved 7 while Capdeville saved 5). the game  started with  leading till end of first hal 13-9 ..  in second half ..ah ..sorry ..I will say Wolff not   ...Wolff in 2nd half managed to close the gap and even lead by 2 goals, but Portela and Francisco Costa were able to finish the time draw 26-26. the extra time started with  heading again thanks to :Francisco Costa and  Martim Costa .. Knorr and Zerbe managed to draw for the team Wolff ... but 4 seconds before the end Martim Costa scored the golden goal to secure the first ever  semifinal spot in a well deserved game with huge frustration from Wolff against his team mates.   in 2019  U21 team finished 4th in WCh ( finished 3rd in the same tournament) in the same year  U 19 team finished 4th too in Wch ( won that tournament) now  in the semi final with amazing performance and mix of mostly young players and few experienced.   Semi Final Games:   30th of Jan    VS   31st of Jan    VS

      I know that. I was just wondering if any users on here have been keeping track of quotas since FIS likely won't make the qualification points list public until spring at the earliest.    And judging by the lack of replies on here, it would seem like the answer is no unsurprisingly

      I know Norway is heavily cutting finances in ski jumping so presumably there is some economical shift in sports over there but it would be insane to have the likes of JTB or Riiber compete for Qatar or any other petroleum country now

      With Russia’s ongoing ban I’m a little surprised at least one of  hasn’t suddenly gotten very good at biathlon, cross country skiing, figure skating and/or ice hockey.

      I honestly didn't expect the victory, not even my most optimistic self. But handball here has gained great visibility due to the historic campaign (at least more than it usually has) and I was hoping that we would have at least one great game against the Danes. It had been a long time since the world championships had even been broadcast here. But the main fear is that the sport will be abandoned again, like what happened after the end of our golden generation of women's handball. I hope not.
