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).

The biggest differences will be in (naturally, due to being a youth tournament) Men's Football. Only 5 teams will be making a return (BRA, HON, MEX, JPN, KOR).

      Malinin  opted for the 4-Axel in his Short Program, but faltered, landing him in 3rd thus far (and only 0.05 away from 4th!).  Surely he has the tools to rise back up in the Free Program.  (Also, perhaps this will serve to show him that he is in fact beatable.)

      I think they incorrectly translated Ukrainian word "nahorody" - it is not a full synonym of "medal". Its cocrrect translation is "award". Meanwhile russian tennis playes switched for Potapova ->  Rakhimova ->

      Ukrainian diver Lyskun switches allegiance to Russia, loses all medals | Olympics News | Al Jazeera   'loses all medals'   I would assume Al Jazeera could have been a bit clearer and mention this would presumably only be national medals. I mean, it's not like the Ukrainian federation, or any single federation for that matter, has the power to strip her of her world and European championships medals I hope (not for her sake, but because that would be a super weird precedent)

      Confirmation about the broadcasting rights.   If I'm reading it right, for most of Europe it will now be exclusive to Discovery/Eurosport or whatever brand they use.     For outside Europe, it's on YouTube. For Planet VPN....well, let us know if you find out.   fil-taker-list-25-26-winterberg-1.pdf   Also, should have mentioned above that the Nations Cup races today are just over one leg, whereas there are two runs in each of the World Cup races.

      Surely. Her first coach now works in russia (and grandma lives in russia according to Sereda). They were in contact and despite of full funding from  the girl decided to become the star of russian propaganda.  As I saw in X: "It took the Russians four years of war to find a relatively well-known sports personality to carry out such a propaganda operation."
