In really we have the lowest ranking of the group :p 

 

Yeah but hockey rankings are pretty useless to determine current form. I remember we played Italy in World League last year (Olympic qualifiers) and your team was decent.

Well, we're approaching the end of world league round 2 and today we'll have the last qualified teams from men's tournament 3 (very likely :CAN & :JPN ).

 

Today also starts the last women's tournament for this round in Vancouver, Canada. Possibly the closest one too: :IND:CAN:CHI:BLR or even :URU have potential to qualify here, but there are only two places available for the next round (except for :IND who could finish 3rd and still qualify for the next round due to ranking). Really, really close level between these teams.

Men's World league semifinals final distribution:

 

Tournament 1: :ARG:NED:IND:ENG:PAK:KOR:CAN:MAS:CHN:SCO

 

Tournament 2: :AUS:GER:BEL:NZL:ESP:RSA:IRL:FRA:JPN:EGY  

 

In theory, top 8 from each tournament should qualify for the world cup. Which means, the last 2 will miss out in both.

All world league semifinals distribution and groups confirmed:

 

Men's World League

 

Tournament 1 - London

Group A :ARG :ENG :KOR :MAS :CHN 

Group B :NED :IND :PAK :CAN :SCO 

 

Tournament 2 - Johannesburg

Group A :AUS :NZL :ESP :JPN :FRA

Group B :GER :BEL :RSA :IRL :EGY 

 

Women's World League

 

Tournament 1 - Brussels

Group A :NED :CHN :KOR :ITA :SCO

Tournament 2 - Johannesburg 

Group A :ENG :GER :JPN :IRL :POL

Group B :ARG :USA :RSA :IND :CHI 

 

I want Chile (W) to qualify for world cup but unfortunately they didn't get a good group. However, unlike previous rounds there aren't shoot-outs to break ties in pool stage games, so we may be able to help them by scoring a few extra goals past South Africa or India ... :jeje:

Great group for :POL women - :ENG and :GER are too good, but with :JPN and :IRL we should fight for places 3-4. And I think that even 8th place will be enough to qualify for World Champs in London (I suppose all continental champions and host, England, will take place, that would give them quota from World League).

Today is Quarterfinals day, teams that win qualify for WC (but anyway all 8 teams will likely end up qualifying at the end).

 

:ARG beats :PAK to become the 1st team to qualify for world cup:clap:

 

And after that :IND lost to :MAS :yikes:

      Pretty crazy, just imagine if they won the World Baseball Classic (though personally I equate the two pretty closely).

      WWE introduced two new Women's Championship belts. The first one introduced was the Women's United States Championship and not shortly after that the Women's Intercontinental Championship. The Women's US Title will be exclusive to SmackDown and the Women's IC Title will be exclusive to RAW.

      Alpine Skiing FIS World Cup 2024 - 2025

      By copravolley · Posted

      Greece and Portugal also have winter sports centres - but of course these are not homologated routes for World Cup competitions I have never been to Albania personally, so I don't know the country at all. I have been in southern Croatia, though, and there are mountains there but you definitely can't ski there (I was there in the summer, but it's also impossible in the winter). World cup taking place there only in Zagreb.    In general the case of Colturi and Kostelic is completely different: Colturi has no ties to Albania and Janica Kostelic was Croatian and didn't left their country even though at the beginning of her carrier (and also her brother Ivica) her father had to pay for everything and the federation's support was zero. This only changed later. I imagine that the Kostelic family had offers from other countries (Austria, Switzerland, Italy?) to compete for them, which were much richer (at the beginning of the 21st century Croatia was a very poor country and devastated by war). All the more respect for them because they were true Croatian patriots until the end. I can imagine the Colturi family in a similar situation... Her mother would probably negotiate with half of Alpine Europe for Lara to compete for them Which of course doesn't change the fact that the Italian federation completely gave a shit in this situation. They let such talent go in a situation where they hasn`t a single female athlete on the podium of the World Cup in slalom for a dozen or so years. In the giant slalom it's not much better either, only there the older athletes cloud the picture: Brignone and Bassino. However, behind these two there is absolutely nothing...

      Atalanta is probably playing the most beautiful football in Europe right now: spectacular and effective. It's nice to watch and they don't have to spend a lot of money for it.   Inter is playing very economically. It's not impressive but it's consistently collecting points. It's also the only team in the Champions League that hasn't conceded a goal this season.   Milan played very poorly yesterday but they won. They have 9 points and are close to qualifying for the play-offs.
