Heart-break for India though a draw is a better result than a loss after leading 3 - 1....Well played team India...Mandeep would really feel bad for that miss...

:clap:

 

Only thing for India to learn is to be disciplined and play sensible rest was very good.

Also S Sunil was unlucky in the first quarter when he was denied a goal or else India could have been up by 2-0 at that stage.

AITA may back Paes to the hilt in getting him on Indian Olympic squad but veteran star will not be picked in Davis Cup team despite showing late interest in competing in Asia/Oceania Group I tie against Korea Republic next month.

I think Paes needs to play the Davis Cup, if for nothing else, then so that Bopanna/Paes can get atleast one match together under their belt before Rio...

Please I request all to stop this topic on Paes.....We have better things to discus.

We just had 3 good results today in prospect of Rio 2016 and a wonderful reunion pair doing wonders in ATP tour. In middle of this like our news channels we are here talking on Paes issue...get over this.

    • North American rugby quotas ( and qualified automatically)    M: and W: and  
    • 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.
