Well, today there's a "super saturday" of national teams in Argentina -Women's hockey champions trophy - ARG-GBR -Men's Rugby test match - ARG-FRA -Men's Handball panamerican championship semifinal - ARG-BRA -Men's Volleyball World League - ARG-IRI -Football Copa America - ARG-VEN

I told you that if Ireland takes sevens seriously they can qualify easily.

However, don't forget that other teams were also missing various players. I think the most positive thing for India is that GB and Belgium kind of sucked and they were the most complete squads. Could see India sneaking past them in Quarterfinals given the chance.

Provisional Standing after Day 14 available here. Round of applauses for Ufilov, the only user who predicted a draw in Peru - Colombia.

^ Qatar will buy all the Cuban banned players, Simon, Leon, Leal, Hierrezuelo olympic champions 2020

Overall poor level in this champions trophy. GB and Belgium in particular were disappointing. India goes home with positive vibes. Germany didn't care much, Australia usual level despite not playing with the full force. Tomorrow starts women's competition and it will be more serious, I think all teams are playing with their full squads. Also the 6 teams that play are probably all the teams that can win a medal in Rio, so it should make a good preview.

I think it says something about where the flares are in the stadium.

Serbia is always good in WL, but bad or average in important championships.

We have no chance here, will finish 8th place. We got 4th place at south american championship last month, FOURTH PLACE.

I'm surprised that in Europe there seems to be a strong hooligan culture for national teams too. In Argentina there is, but only for clubs, no "hardcore" fans care about NT. Most who attend national team games are people or families who don't usually go to watch club football. You never get to see troubles in the stands or flares.

We lost to Greenland Atrocious women brazilian referees that had no clue about the rules but still with that it's no excuse, shameful! Now if we don't beat Chile we are out of WCh.

I understand your emotion dude, but it's not like these guys are poor or something. Hamsik probably earns more money than any hockey player.

wow, voting for the logo of a modern pentathlon competition. I'm sure the masses out there are desperate to take part.

^ I have no idea either why Korea is above Germany. As far i'm concerned, the 1st tie breaker is goal difference.
