  1. And as Cesare Casadei is the top scorer of the tournament so far, 10 years from now after he's got a big name for him in international football we may think of his divine origin, 21 centuries after another famous Caesar served us a similar story on a golden plate.
  2. Maybe the visitors' fans went away for their ice hockey team match. Still no excuse for the hosts
  3. Surprises never cease If they go all the way through to the final will they change the community rules for this? By the way, what on earth happened in PEC Zwolle - Den Bosch?
  4. Femke Kok goes one better than the last time and wins gold in Women's 500.
  5. Jordan Stolz of What a senior career start!
  6. Bangladesh - England ODI cricket England are 128 for 3 after 26 overs
  7. They have done it again! IF Brommapojkarna doesn't say much in European football, not even in Sweden football. Their only European participation was in 2014-2015 Europa League as a Respect Fair Play spot and they didn't make it to the group stage succumbing on 0-7 aggregate to Torino in the 3rd qualifying round after dismissing earlier VPS Vaasa and Crusaders Belfast, which was however a successful campaign. However their famous history is made in the last 15 years. After promoting for the first time to Allsvenskan at the end of 2006, the team could not find the force to stay there and was relegated after one season. However they returned and played top level football again in 2009-2010 and 2013-2014. Nothing strange up to this moment. From 2015 the team started a very interesting pattern. 2015 was a disastrous Superettan season which ended with the team being relegated to Ettan Norra (3rd level), but they were promoted back after 1 season and at the end of the 2017 campaign they fought their way back to Sweden top flight. Only to loose the relegation play-off and be demoted again. And guess what, for the second time in a row they lost their heads and were relegated another level back to Ettan Norra for 2020, where they could not go up again from the first shot but managed to do it last autumn. And tonight, with a 3-2 home win and 2 games to play they have once again won the promotion to meet the Sweden big guns next season. I wonder what happens in the future but for now it seems you need a good heart condition to cheer for this team, whose recent history is I think unparalleled in the recent world football.
  8. I only watched the Women Points Race (I think first track cycling race I ever watch) and it was interesting as well as challenging, relying most on commentary to find out what is happening on the track.

  10. beats in Armenia. Another chance missed for Venezuela in international football (men + women) but they are going closer each time.
  11. Well, 48 hours after the end of the competition I can say I was impressed with this tournament, I've seen good matches, good positioning in the field, great shots on target, determination, fair play, individual skills, even though not all matches looked like this. Overall, women football in Africa is on the rise.

  14. https://www.youtube.com/c/CAFTVafricanfootball Matches are here.
  15. South Africa scored twice in a 3 minutes second half interval to upset Nigeria in a 2-1 win and Botswana are early leaders of Group 3 after defeating the other debutants from this group, Burundi 4-2. Today in the early 2nd group A matchday Senegal were lucky enough to convert a late given penalty against a more agressive Burkina Faso who is now at the hands of also other teams (mostly next opponents Uganda and forementioned Botswana) in their attempt to qualify further. Morocco managed to win 3-1 over Uganda after a 1-1 kind of leveled first half. Uganda now faces the same Burkina Faso's problems. Theoretically in Group B all teams except Togo should get the quarter finals spots but we shall wait and see.
  16. Another big shock for Mexico but i've seen them almost leveled with USA at u-17 and u-20 CONCACAF championships this year. Can they do it also here or will they miss qualifying again?
  17. So, yesterday was the only day of this tournament with 3 matches. Luckily the 4 p.m. match between Senegal and Uganda didn't have to play in hot conditions as the temperature was listed by timeanddate.com to be on 24 Celsius. However it was a dull match in my opinion, with Senegal scoring it's second in the 50th minute and protecting a 2-0 victory to the end, even with spells of players on the ground needing medical attention, as far as they claimed. Group B started with Zambia and Cameroon playing a goalless draw. To my shame I forgot about Banda, Zambia's star in Tokyo. She was neither in the lineup nor on the bench and later I learned she was not available for the championships. Tunisia was a nice surprise to me but I think they are not a surprise for someone who follows closely women football in Northern Africa as they had some impressive results lately. After a 19th second opening and a 2-1 half time advantage, Tunisia won convincingly 4-1 having in Sabrine Ellouzi and Meriem Houij the top scorers of the tournament so far with 2 goals each. Tonight: early shock in Group C: Nigeria vs South Africa, while heavy underdogs Burundi entertain Botswana. I say heavy because they lost this year to every side qualified here which they met in friendlies.
  18. Are these Mick Schumacher's first points in Formula 1? I wasn't sure about it.
  19. Giani Infantino has a full early July flight schedule: yesterday in Morocco, tomorrow in Mexico, UK on the 6th and Colombia on the 8th. Will he be in Fiji on the 13th for OFC Women's kick off?
  20. Yes, I think TahkamUnkit and GregorCoppi but I think I want to stick to this new username and no need to unify the accounts.
  21. I watched the fist match on CAF TV on YouTube last night and I was surprised to see quality and an alert pace of the game. Somehow Morocco proved the better team even if winning only by 1-0 but Burkina Faso did not surrender at all.
  22. Hello. I've been part of this in the past but somehow always had this issue of lack of time - easy quitting.... LOL However, Totallympics forum was always something that was missing, so here I am again, trying to get and give my best out of my passion for sport. It's nice to meet you all again.
  23. Netherlands No 15 (Kika van Es) plays for her team mate (Miedema) preventing with that foul (and yellow card) a 4th for Banda...
