All semifinals on Saturday July 6th. Tournament 1 (Valencia ): 1 quota - v - v Tournament 2 (Riga ): 1 quota - v - v Tournament 3 (Piraeus ): 1 quota - v - v Tournament 4 (San Juan ): 1 quota - v - v

I agree, in terms of difference there wasnt many. But, guided by the betting apps, the Libano win pay up x8, so atleast for them its a shock hehe.

defeats and defeats

Suprised to see Christopher O´Connell is not in the ITF list taking in consideration that he was announced by the Australia Olympic Committee and even himself posted a story on Instagram about his qualification

Between 8-11 because the start of the day is very early here and probably i will be studying during the day so. Top 5 without order: Mens Rugby 7, Mens Football, BMX Racing, Tennis and Archery/Athletics. Probably not watching/skipping: Breaking, Equestrian, Weightlifting and Badminton

Also 104-78 , 26pts difference, first, second.

A much better second quarter for , who is now losing by only 7 points. 46-39 at halftime.

18 up against at the end of the first quarter (27-9)

Molteni and Podoroska probably for

Yes. is +12, +4 and -16. This means: A 10pts win puts both and with -6 difference, so i guess they are using the winner of the match to determine who qualify second. A win between 11 and 28 pts means first and second. A win by 29pts or more puts them first and second. A win by 9pts or less leaves first and second. A win by any margin leaves them first and second.

welp, defeats 90-86 and now can qualify first or eliminated in the group stage. On the other side, is 18 up against going into half of the second quarter. Edit: Other results, defeated 70-66, tighter than expected, and is winning by 16pts against at the start of the third.

(with Doncic) losing by 20 to at the end of the third.

Now confirmed, 3 world champions will be the exemptions in the Olympic team. goalkeeper Geronimo Rulli, centreback Nicolas Otamendi and striker Julian Alvarez.

Iga is unbeatable on clay, of course an upset can happen but with the difference of level between her and the other 63 the chances are basically 95/5

Duplantis, Womens Field Hockey and Swiatek. Also, not gold but i really think that is going to win a medal in Mens Rugby 7.

1. Kinda difficult going to Paris from Argentina but i started saving money for LA 2028 since 2019. Watching at home on PC + phone, here the games goes from 4 am to 6 pm aprox so probably waking up everyday between 5 and 7. 2. Supporting all Latin American (Brazil too) countries and Spain

3-2

had a MP, but saves it and wins the fourth set with an ace

2-1 up against

Maybe Marozsan or Fucsovics, Shevchenko or Ruusuvuori?

Group A: Group B: Group C:

si, Saravia en natacion y en atletismo son entre 2 y 5 creo

Golden Set for the quota between and . Its going to be n°2 Bueno/Amieva v n°1 Grimalt/Grimalt couple n°2 won both of their matches, 1 and 1 for both the couples. Argentina N°1 couple lost both matches in two sets.

How it was disastrous? We qualify between 140 athletes, which at least to me were my expectations in May 2022 before the qualification period started. We lost some usual quotas but we won others that we didnt had before. Better and growing athletes in Athletics and Swimming, first time since a long time in Archery, Canoeing meh but between expectations, Cycling, Equestrian and Fencing normal (probably one or two more could have qualified). Good perfomances in Golf, no Gymnastics not the best but expected (we were very close with 2 athletes anyways). Judo meh as usual, Pentathlon and Rowing normal, Shooting and Sailing are the same as Tokyo, probably with better hopes with this delegation. Direct quota in Table Tennis was a good news, same as Taekwondo and Triathlon. Tennis with such a great delegation with big hopes in each of every one except for the girls. In terms of the "new" sports, qualifying 2 in Skate is very big, knowing that they were in the Top 10 for the start of the cycle and they didnt fall. Also, a quota in BMX Freestyle is good too, with an athlete that is going t be fighting in the top 8 probably. Aside from that, the girls in Skate Street did a good cycle, they were in quota places until they eventually fall, but at least they fought. In Climbing, a girl competed in the OQS which is a good step for our country federation, while in Santiago the speed guy did a very good job. In terms of dissapointment, probably Boxing is the big one, but i dont see it that serious really, none of our athletes were favorites to qualify anyways. No qualifiers in Surfing and Wrestling is also sad, knowing we had a former world champions in our squad. Apart from that, there were no other failures. Also, beach volleyball is not out yet. The team sports is probably better than expected. Both genders of Hockey qualified easily and are having a good Pro League run so i think they are in a good shape. Two medal favorites in Mens Football and Rugby 7 (and two strong ones) was something that we didnt had in Tokyo. In the case of Womens, a 0-1 loss against home team Colombia leaved the Football without a quota, which i dont think its a bad result, same as Rugby, an Argentina team that was the third or fourth of Sudamerica two years ago and now is the second by difference, with good results in the Challenger series. Not as close favorites but normal cycle for the Handball and Volleyball, having a good qualification cycle, specially the Handball with that excellent win against Brasil. For the girls in this two sports, the Handball team ended up reaching the final of the Continental quota (as expected) and having more competitives matches in the Pre-Olympic comparing to the Tokyo cycle. The Volleyball girls were impossible to qualify because of the new process but they won the PanAmerican Cup last year and defeated Colombia in the world cup, surpassing them in the rankings and playing the Challenger Cup in two weeks, so, a improvement compared to last cycle taking in consideration the new process and the impossibility of qualifying. Basketball is probably the biggest dissapointment of the cycle, not reaching at least the Pre-Olympic or the World Cup is too much, but in the other hand we dont have a competitive team and we knew that after Tokyo so its not like a shocking thing. Also, we qualified this month our two young squads for each gender World Cup next year so its not that bad. To resume, saying this was a disastrous cycle its literally A JOKE. I dont know if you were expecting 189 like in Tokyo or 213 like Rio but this cycle was exactly as the expectations were before the start, not more and not less.
