Another downside of Italy winning is that we probably won't see the NHL players in 2026.

Disappointing result. I was hoping for Stockholm, as 2 Olympic games in 20 years for a non-Winter Olympic powerhouse nation like Italy seems unfair. However, the logistics and wary public/government support for the Stockholm bid is what put them at a disadvantage at the end. I'm sure that Milan-Cortina will put on a great Olympic games, but it remains to be seen whether the legacy and sustainability of the Games will be any better than the disastrous legacy left behind by the Turin Games.

Cameroon!!!!

Wow, an own goal ties it between NZ and Cameroon. Good news for Argentina!

Yes! Sinclair now 2 goals away from tying the record for most women's international goals!

Canada with a good start, but Netherlands completely dominated the second portion of the first half

Thanks! Do you have any idea when the draw will take place for the match-ups for the first round?

Is it possible to find the entrants for the team competition anywhere?

I'm very confused about the athletics format, would someone be able to explain it to me?

and the "ayyyyy" whenever Chile scores

Wow

Osako totally missed on that ball! What luck for Senegal

Remember that with 48 teams, there will be a composition of 16 groups of three teams. Therefore we would only likely see 1 crappy team per group as opposed to 2 if it were 12 groups of four teams.

Germany!! So dominant

Wow. Austrians into second

YES!!!

Yes Kramer

A stunning race! Wow, what a shocking result

Belchos! Found a last little bit of energy at the end and takes the lead, breaking 13 minutes

I've always thought Homan was a flake. Sadly, I doubt Canada will be winning a gold this year

Well they did invent the sport

WOW. Shaun White making history

Hard fought match from the Italians, but Canada squeaks out the 5-3 win

Hip injury for Totsuka who has been taken to the hospital for examination
