once again, this Italian team is trying to waste what they've brilliantly built...

last night they made me feel ashamed of being Italian once again...:facepalm::wall:

I hope that today they will show something more than yesterday, but I'm very pessimistic...I really think they can't stand any sort of mental pressure...and today there will be a lot of that on the ice...

And everyone here was talking before WC that we will qualify to elite this year, yeah :facepalm:

 

Well, honestly this year this tournament was really crazy and totally balanced, it was played about few, every team from the 6 here could win or finish last, absolutely crazy tournament, I can not remember last time I saw so strong inferior division, and I follow hockey for a very long time..

 

Anyway what happened, happened, now hopefully Poland will be able to immediately return back, since you have the potential and very good players, you just need also some luck, that you missed this time, unfortunately

this is not the first time I see something like that, but it's always surreal when both teams play without the goaltender...

now, the dream of an unexpected promotion is still alive...

but we must hope for GBR's help...we desperately need them to earn at least 1 point in the final match against Hungary, who, by their side, only have to win that game in regulation to be promoted to the Top Division...

I guess it's gonna be quite an interesting match...

    • No, our epee was good always, we have Shemyakina, who was Olympic Champion in 2012, Reizlin with bronze in 2020, medalists of Worlds like Kryvytska (who is our finisher today), Svichkar (who is our finisher in men's side) and Stankevych, European champion Kharkova, medals in other conpetitions from men's team epee who were one of the main contenders in Tokyo, but unfortunately failed to take a medal. 
    • Does Ukraine have good relations with Poland, or are they more cold, like, for example, Italy with France?
    • Until recently, Ukrainian fencing was just Kharlan and sabre. Maybe epee sometimes. I don't remember them ever was strong in foil. There was a time when Russia, Romania and Poland were strong in foil at that time when Italy dominated but I don't remember Ukraine anymore.   Hungarian women with Aida Mahomed were too strong for many years.
    • No surprise with Aaron Judge winning AL MVP and Shohei Ohtani winning NL MVP awards.   Ohtani is the second player in history to win MVP in both leagues. Frank Robinson (1961 Reds & 1966 Orioles) was the only one before.

    • Argentina also has ski centers on the Tierra del Fuego but that doesn't mean it will immediately become a powerhouse in this sport 
    • Speak for yourself. Why should we give up our one great talent of the younger generation when we have no one else? Maybe from the same reason that the USA didn't give up Schiffrin to another country when she had 17-18...
