Brazil had lost 9 of the last 10 games, if I am not mistaken. A moral boost is more than we can want right now. :dunno:

 

oh I didn't know that. it was just weird for me that Brazil is the one wasting time and not Italy ! because 1-0 was actually a better result for Italy and not Brazil. with one more goal Brazil could win the group. while even 1-1 had the same outcome for Brazil (or even a loss)

This match made me experience something I've never saw before in a women's football match. A lot of people stopped everything to watch this on a week day (!) + Marta's goal was heavily celebrated. In terms of our standings in the competition, this didn't change much, but this win was not only a moral boost for the team, but also great for the general perception of women's football in Brazil. It was a beatiful moment and I'm glad I lived it.

 

Spoiler

Now back to reality... Brazil's next match maybe will be at the same time of a "important" Copa América game and Globo (main channel here) will probably favour them against the women's :redcard:

 

Spoiler

Maybe is for the best since right now Brazil is no match to France or Germany :zip:

Jesus Christ, France in the round of 16 and USA in the quarterfinals. It could not be worse. :zip:

 

I always liked the games between Brazil and Germany, it would be a good time for another.

 

I'm just glad that at the end we'll end with 2 wins here.

:ITA  First target reached: knock out stage :yes  The interest for the Women's NT grow up now, in Italy finally......

 

Win a group have "a little" advantage for next round, ITALY will play against one of the best 3rd between Nigeria, China or 3rd of group F (Chile or Thailand)

 

Respect but no fear, all is possible now, we have a great group of players!!!! :cheer:

DARE TO DREAM !!!

IMO, Italy is a clear favourite against any of these teams. Depending who will lose in each round (Brazil is definitely capable to knock out France or Germany), you could even have a chance to qualify for Tokyo.

1) Italy is a horrible side, they play extremely unfair.

2) I dont see how Brazil could knock out France to be honest.

Attachment is the great fabricator of illusions; reality can be obtained only by someone who is detached.

I'm not as impressed by France as many others seem to be. They aren't bad, but IMO not as good as the press made some out to be. IMO, they would be like 65:35 favourites against Brazil, while Germany would be like 55:45 favourites. It still gives Brazil a big enough chance for an upset in both cases.

    • I read now that Valentina Rodini will be in the new team of Tizzano + Galtarossa and Martini. I was probably in such an information bubble on Instagram that I thought that only Abbagnale was running a campaign and had a team of people around him. That's why I was surprised by his defeat + the fact that, for example, Rodini supports his rival. But as I wrote, for me the change in the general coach position is a plus. We need a new opening and a new impulse: Cattaneo had his best results in Tokyo and then he only explained that his rowers were running away abroad to the USA to study and that's why he had worse results. Ok, except that it's the same in Romania and Greece but they results are comparable or better. It's obvious that no one here will make the UK or the Netherlands, because we don't have such resources and money but I think we can repeat the Romanian results (2 gold - 3 silver in Paris) and that will be a much better result than the 2 silver in this year.
    • Abbagnale boasted that he had 80 per cent a few days before the vote (I still have the screen) and ran again as a result of a power deal. Not a great loss.   I have doubts about the new technical director though, you can't announce him during the congress, brandishing the scalp of the Abbagnale era technical staff (who then, were Crispi's men). Let's hope there are no rifts between the new staff and the athletes, it had to be handled better.
    • I was surprised by Abbagnale's defeat. I thought he was a sure of victory, since he decided to run - I read some source that he didn't know if he would start before Paris 2024. What do you think about it?

    • Cattaneo was good but his peak was in Tokyo 2021. Then there was such stabilization - stagnation. In Paris the result was in line with expectations but without the wow effect. They threw everything that was best into the quadruple sculls and it was enough for a only silver. Now without the lightweight sculls in LA I think that radical changes are needed to remain competitive. Previously there was a 3-year Olympic cycle due to Covid, so big changes weren`t good but now I think the time is right. Although of course more funds are needed for this sport in Italy, because even the best coach will not overcome this vel our men`s alpine skiing sector
    • @Gianlu33 we posted the same (great) news at the same time  
    • Davide Tizzano (1996 Olympic Champion, men's double sculls) is the new President of the Italian Federation, as he defeated the (now former) President Giuseppe Abbagnale by a very small margin (52% to 48%) in last week's federal elections   and he's already at work to make up for the last 8 disappointing years (at least in terms of Olympic success): his first move is bringing back home  Antonio Colamonaci  who made  great in the past 8 years   https://www.oasport.it/2024/11/canottaggio-cambia-la-direzione-tecnica-dellitalia-arriva-il-guru-che-ha-reso-grande-la-romania/   let's see if he can make  great again, now
