Very nice match, congrats to the Hungarian that reach to do a great match without Varga at the top.

Btw, we are in Tokyo and in final after 8 years! Let's go to win this WCh... We need some revenge against Spain.

lol what? Hungary will be in Tokyo.

 

 

 

I think Croatia will take the quota at the ECh, and then we will have to fight for the last three spots against Germany, Greece, and Montenegro. Any of those three teams can beat us at a OQT.

+ probably one more quota (Africa)

 

edit: No, there are 4 quotas at OQT. So this 4 teams + Russia will fight for that.

Oh, okay, in that case maybe we can't possibly fuck it up. But who knows, at this point anything is possible, our team sports are in a terrible shape.

Olympics without Hungary in waterpolo would be disaster.

At the end this was solid WCh fot this Serbian team. Yeah they lost only one match (most important , but nevermind).

 

Expected medal for Croatia. I really thought they would easily take the gold, but Spain played great.

 

Spain was the best this year and I hope that they will win gold at the end. They deserved that. They beat two best teams in the last 6 years (and I still think that they are the best ).

Medal for us

Yikes once again. Hungarian water polo (both men and women) is just so weak in this Olympic cycle.

Drama in a nightclub next to the whole complex in Gwangju where the World Aquatics Championships are being held: a balcony collapsed and two people died. Several others were injured, including athletes from the USA, New Zealand (water polo captain Matt Small), Italy, Brazil and the Netherlands (water polo player Maud Megens).
