Shouldn't we have a thread for the OQT that's about to start tomorrow? 

 

Anyway, this is obviously one of the most important tournaments for the Hungarian sport in this year (if the Olympics actually happens). I am not confident at all, Netherlands or Italy will be a really tough opponent in the SF.

I would say that based on the results during the Olympic cycle Hungary and Netherlands deserve these spots. But it's never that simple.

 

The ranking of the Top4 OQT teams:

 

WCh 2017

 

5. :HUN 

 

6. :ITA 

 

7. :GRE 

 

9. :NED 

 

ECh 2018

 

1. :NED 

 

2. :GRE 

 

4. :HUN 

 

6. :ITA 

 

WCh 2019

 

4. :HUN 

 

6. :ITA 

 

7. :NED 

 

8. :GRE 

 

ECh 2020

 

3. :HUN 

 

4. :NED 

 

5. :ITA 

 

6. :GRE 

 

 

If we give 3-2-1-0 points for each of these rankings.

 

1. :HUN  10pts

 

2. :NED  6pts

 

3. :ITA  5pts

 

4. :GRE  3pts

With South Africa deciding to take the African quota for the first time ever the final qualification tournament has become as tough as ever for the European nations despite there being two extra teams at the Olympics this year. I guess it's slightly easier with no Canada, but still two good teams will miss out.

with a highly ambitious and bold but not very realistic goal of scoring as many goals as possible and not ending dead last, our young girls (yeah, the youngest team of the tourney) travelled to the tournament.

All tests after arrival were negative, so everything is OK, they can start counting the dutch goals tonight :d (Joke aside, just qualifying to this final QT  is by far the biggest success of Slovak womens water polo ever, a fullfiled dream for the girls and boost for their further career, So have fun and enjoy the games, babes. Slovensko do toho !)

Yep and let me add that it was the first time in 3 or 4 :wall:years that water polo is even aired here ,  the coach of the Women’s National team declared that this team is building itself to Paris 2024 and that we do not need to expect anything

    • I still don't know how we lost the match against Poland Can't wait to see the semifinals These matches seems very balanced
    • POL rather won’t qualify for a World Cup.   And we surely won’t qualify in a first stage.    So j just want to see interesting matches and my dream group would be:            
    • With the IWF cracking down on doping, North Korea was already the second best nation before Covid. The three-year isolation does make things suspicious.   Considering the IWF is now testing them every time they compete (given their results), they are probably clean now. The IWF is on such a short leash that a scandal like this may kill the federation so I imagine they are keeping a watchful eye on them.
    • and  are the men's handball qualifiers from North America. Guess who finished fourth? 
    • I was wondering who gave  team that push? ..it was you at the end  ... Karlos is the man (hopefully) to break this domination.   but if we did a poll here: Do you think  weightlifters are clean from doping or not ? ..what would be your thoughts ...I don't want to criticise any athletes or countries but the records are very suspicious
