Kazakhstan looked good, but they faced no European opposition. In reality this tournament is Russia's to lose

well, it seems new team for Spain.

[dareza 911]

Spain is always great when it is most imporatant. Russia is better team, but they simply don't deserve Olympics.

[dcro 10,210]

Spain wins and gets another team

[dareza 911]

The end. Spain

 

Now if official, Russia will have very small team for Olympics. One more debacle after basketball.
