I am very sorry for the Netherlands, they deserved to be in Rio. Its very interesting that home teams in olympic team sports always seem to underperform this year ...

Netherlands didnt qualify in womens football or womens water polo

Germany didnt qualify in mens volleyball

Turkey didnt qualify in womens volleyball

Poland didnt qualify in mens handball

...

At least Poland in mens handball, Turkey in womens volleyball and Netherlands in womens water polo should have qualified.

Canada played really good, i never thought that they would come that close to qualify!

 

I dont think that we can qualify in mens water polo. For some reason we always loose against Romania and Russia also should be too strong.

The ONLY positive thing is :ITA Women's :clap: are at OG. Today played a very bad game, won  maybe for the experience of our team.

About referees influences............. maybe in waterpolo Italy have "more power" (compared to other sports....) but if say that we go at OG for "help" is a joke :wacko:

 

The really shame are these "qualifications tournament" (not only in Waterpolo) with improbable format or weak teams .......

How is possible a match decisive for OG finished 19-0? :thumbup:

 

I'm sorry for :GRE and :NED  that are out but not all European teams can qualify.

Did you notice it's exactly same teams as women's water polo in london? only difference is the home team.....

Really? Very interesting! I dont think that its a good sign for womens water polo ...

It would be interesting to know if its the same in other team sports.

Men's wp will probably be the same with the exception of Japan (x KAZ). In all other team sports events we are already assured of at least one different team (excluding the host quota).

You are very quick, great work! :yes

I think i will also look up the situation in fencing concerning team events and maybe also relays in swimming/athletics or teams in track cycling (sprint, team pursuit).

      Yes, he is ones of the first supporters of Milei, owner of one of the most important stock market of Argentina (Bull market), he was peronist and for "unknown reasons" start to be libertarian.   Even being libertarian in my case, i have to admit that him is one of the dumbest of "Milei supporters" and a clown when  he is in TV, he made me feel  embarrassed in many occasions.   Camila Giorgi being with him is.......inconceivable.

      Ya but the replacement is Pat Bondi, a choice that is only better in so far as Pat Bondi isn't credibly accused of having had sex with multiple underaged girls.   Also, you might recognize this name: Pete Hoekstra has been nominated to be the US ambasador to Canada.

      Camila Giorgi has a new BF Ramiro Marra. Apparently he's some politician/journalist from Argentina. One of Milei's supporters dare I say? @LDOG@konig

      2-1.   But it's good to have a great champion in the squad. I've been waiting for this my whole life. I wish we had such stars in every sport.

      Argentina has a really solid lineup, especially if they have prepared seriously for this event. Of course they don't have a champion like we do, but in this format it is enough to win 1 match to play the decisive doubles.

      Today we must to beat Argentina. It looks like Sinner will have to win all the singles and doubles for us to defend the title. So far, the 2nd and 3rd favorites before the tournament have already been eliminated: Esp and USA.
