Only 10k traveled from Argentina. I would say a good other 30k were argentinians living in Europe. The rest spanish who had interest in the game.  

  

That extra time was incredibly dramatic! The 3 first goals were all beautiful and the last one absolutely epic with the river player running the ball into empty net with all boca supporters behind it.

I read the sponsors and CONMEBOL officials have taken 25k of the tickets. As usual only half of the stadium were common fans.

- Our time is now

- Never say never

- Heroes will rise

- One team. One nation. One Syria

- Make Jordan proud.

- Fighting for the same dream

- To dream the impossible

- Never give up.

- 4 million hearts, one dream

 

How painfully uninspiring these things always are (same in the World Cup), I wonder what kind of bureaucrats got millions for making this crap up :rofl: 

 

I laughed at 'We will triumph. We are Palestine.', couldn't help but think they might not really be talking about football :lol: 

Yemen and Jordan being the only ones with a dot at the end whereas the rest has either ! or an 'open' ending is freaking annoying.

I know why can’t some slogans be like:

”We Hate Our Neighbors”

“We definitely don’t bomb our citizens”

“Our team loves journalists”

“Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire. Sport can create hope where once there was only despair” - Nelson Mandela

    • I remember Caroline Golubitsky. She competed with Vezzali for a while but not for long. Rita Konig, whom Vezzali defeated in the final of the Olympic Games in 2000, was more famous, as well as Sabine Bau and Anja Mueller. From what I remember, the Germans competed fiercely with us at some point, but they almost always lost.
    • Shemyakina won a bronze medal in 2014 Worlds and was one of our leader but leave the squad due to pregnancy (she has 2 daughters if I'm not mistaking, so she chose family instead of sport). And speaking of foil we have back in the day Sergiy Golubitskyi, who was Olympic silver medalist and won some medals in other competitions and coached his wife Caroline Golubitskyi - one of the German foil specialists. Even in women's foil we had medal in Women's foil at the European championship - it was Olha Leleiko, our current national coach. So no, we are pretty good fencing country, and depending on generations of our athletes some events are more "profitable" for us and some don't. 
    • Shemyakina that was a very strange story. She unexpectedly won the games but before and after she literally achieved nothing. After that success in 2012 she also completely disappeared. It's only in epee that such strange situations. That's why I've always preferred foil and sabre, because the top was more stable there, although that's changing now. The competition has grown a lot all over the world.
    • Sinner probably won't play in another edition of the Davis Cup. That shouldn't come as a surprise. Next season, Wimbledon and maybe Paris should be the goal.
    • 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.
    • Ukraine twice in one day defeated Italy and France, like what the heck? 
    • Qualified for the Grand Prix Final   Men: 1.  Ilia Malinin 2.  Yuma Kagiyama 3.  Shun Sato  4.  Adam Siao Him Fa 5.  Kevin Aymoz 6.  Daniel Grassl   Final Standings   Women: 1.  Kaori Sakamoto 2.  Amber Glenn 3.  Wakaba Higuchi 4.  Hana Yoshida 5.  Mone Chiba 6.  Rino Matsuike   Final Standings   Pairs: 1.  Deanna Stellato-Dudek / Maxime Deschamps 2.  Riku Miura / Ryuichi Kihara 3.  Minerva Fabienne Hase / Nikita Volodin 4.  Sara Conti / Niccolo Macii 5.  Anastasiia Metelkina / Luka Berulava 6.  Ellie Kam / Danny O'Shea   Final Standings   Ice Dance: 1.  Lilah Fear / Lewis Gibson 2.  Madison Chock / Evan Bates 3.  Piper Gilles / Paul Poirier 4.  Charlene Guignard / Marco Fabbri 5.  Evgeniia Lopareva / Geoffrey Brissaud 6.  Marjorie Lajoie / Zachary Lagha   Final Standings   The Grand Prix Final will be held in Grenoble, from 5 to 8 December.
