Wait, there is youtube livestream for this???

 

I suppose I can't see it because of geoblock. 

Yeah same here...and it looks like Dutch NOS only shows the matches of the Dutch team (and the rest not even on their website). I can't wait for the commercial channel to have the rights next time.

The channel with rights here only shows argentina on tv and they also show other games but for those you have to download their stupid app which I don't have any intention to do so, pirate stream will be arrrrgggh :bones:

Well fought by France, they played toe-to-toe today.

 

It's a pity because this was their best chance to get a point, but I wouldn't rule that out completely against the other two opponents.

 

France is already better than a bunch of other teams that are in this WC, they just didn't have luck with this pool. The team is shaping up nicely for 2024 with the "silver" generation of 2013 junior WCh.

The Chinese men's hockey team is now in a tight budget.

 

The national team has no money to train and compete. (They even gave up the Asian Games)

 

The World Cup is the Neimenggu team representing the Chinese team.

Wow, that is some result of the Neimenggu (Inner-Mongolia?) team :bowdown:

actually FIH says that the non-Dutch games are available on YT for the Dutch fans...

p.s. for those who have a sat dish in Europe, there's a wonderful HD feed available @ 7 East (it's encrypted, but biss key is well known -and it's the same for the entire tournament, so you don't even have to search for it every given day)...;)

 

p.p.s. a VPN and/or KodiMod are also good (and illegal, too) options...:lol:

    • 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?
