This France is truly a disaster. After the penalty they had tried to create scoring chances, but Mexico simply plays on a higher level

5 of the 11 players who started yesterday against Italy will be going to the Olympics, so I will be highly diassapointed if we don't manage to get a medal in Tokyo. We failed miserably in London 2012 and our last medal dates back to Sidney 2000, so it's time to bring the fourth football medal to the country (gold in 1992 and silver in 1920 and 2000).

 

¡Vamos España! :ESP

Spain has a great squad and they are in my opinion the favorites for Gold. However, I wonder whether especially those players will perform as expected. They had a long season with their clubs, the European Championships right afterwards and now, after a break of a few days, the next big tournament waiting. So it's absolutely possible that they are reaching their physical and mental limits and are not able to perform on the level which they showed us during the Euro.

 

Still, if Germany manages to reach the QF I really hope we can avoid Spain there ;)

Let's see how they recover physically, especially Pedri who has played all the games in the EURO and the whole season with his club. I agree that it might be a problem if they are not at the same level that these days, but even without the 6 players, I think it's possible to make a competitive team.

 

For example, Marco Asensio, Dani Ceballos or Bryan Gil have already played for the senior team, but this season they haven't played much due to different reasons, so this is a very good opportunity for these 3 guys to show how good they are and convince Luis Enrique to make the senior list in September. And I would also add to this list the name of Rafa Mir, he's quite unknown, even in Spain, since he plays for Huesca, but in my opinion he can be part of the senior team this season considering the low level of Spanish forwards. He plays different compared to Dani Olmo or Mikel Oyarzábal, which is always nice to introduce some tactical variations during the game.

 

Anyways, I don't like the draw at all. Facing Germany or Brazil (if we get through the group stage) in QF is not going to be easy. Good luck!

I think on paper Spain have the better team but this is a team sport and for instance you can see "worst" player becoming great because of the team spirit.

 

I was a very bad football player when I was young but my strength is my stamina and I keep running everywhere to help my teammate, they always thank me for this support that let them on offensive duty.

 

A well known french journalist says that the beauty in sport is the "glorious uncertainty of sport" that let the small win some times

      Shooting ISSF World Cup 2025

      By phelps · Posted

      so, the 2025 season is officially over, after the World Cup Finals have been completed with the Shotgun events, where (once again!!!) a new format for the final stage of each event has been experimented for the first time (before it becomes a regular feature in the next season)   the new format enlarge the starting field in each event's final stage to 8 shooters and dramatically shortens the number of target shots to decide the placings   the only characteristic remaining is the progressive eliminations principle   now, as written above, 8 shooters make the final, where after only 12 targets the eliminations start: by then, the last 2 shooters must leave the competition (7th and 8th ranked)   after 12 more targets (24 in total), 2 more shooters have to leave the final (5th and 6th ranked)   then, the crazy carousel starts: every 4 targets we have a new elimination  so, after 28 targets, the 4th ranked shooter is done; after 32 targets the bronze medallist is known and after only 36 targets (provided there's no need for a shoot-off), compared to the previous 60, the gold and silver medallists are crowned   I guess the tiktok people with the attention span of a chinchilla have won once again
