All the ex ussr + Italy + Turkey + maybe Japan

You can clap, use percussion instruments... I think this is complete nonsense, they have less than 2k daily cases (still nothing for such a populated country) and the risk of having an outbreak for allowing some spectators is very low. Really disappointed with the japanese.

@konig Cuando se me da por buscar de manera random "tokyo 2020" en youtube a las 12 de la noche....

Despite this questionable penalty I'm very disappointed with the danish coach, removed all his attacking threat for no reason in the 67th minute when the game was 1-1 and it looked like it was going to be a long affair.

Argentina won a game at the U19 WC with this incredible buzzer beater

1) probably Destribats in wrestling. 2) rowing women single sculls and fencing men sabre. All in all nothing TOO surprising happened to our sport, for better or worse.

Fede Gil has an outside chance in shooting, I mean, he just won a world cup medal with almost every opponent present. But yeah, it's shooting.. Everything looks very grim, even those you have as "likely" I think are "outside" right now. We should be happy if we get anything out of this mess of a preparation our athletes are having.

Like I said in the euro thread, no one wins two shoot-outs in a row.

No one wins two shoot-outs in a row rule confirmed.

It's not possible to draw just three weeks beforehand any event that has complex logistics and that has to sell tickets (yes, I know, funny, but covid didn't exist when the draw was done).

When the draw came out I thought our team had gotten a good group in comparison but now it's become the hardest group by a margin.

Probably in all other tournaments.

+9 for Lithuania during Doncic rest lol he has to play all remaining 20 minutes if they want to win.

With Romero and Guido Rodriguez from the start we beat Colombia easily. I'm 100% sure. With other players we'll suffer again.

Counterchoke.

"Top ten chokes in sport history" Someone make a youtube video.

I hope Lithuania wins because I REALLY don't want Slovenia in our group. Our team has much better guards than LTU but Doncic would wreck us.

Denmark has players with great stamina and a very very clear game plan, things England has not faced yet (and I don't have much hope they will face later vs UKR, but football can surprise). They are technically inferior to english attackers, but I'm very sure they can compete.

And now 500% sure they will beat ENGLAND. It's cøming høme.

General India will win 7 or more total medals, surpassing their highest ever number for a single edition. Philippines or Malaysia will win their first olympic gold medal. Sweden will win more gold medals than Norway. The number of gold medals won by Brazil will be equal or lower than the number of gold medals won by all other south american nations added up. Athletics At least 2 world records will be broken in field events (including Decathlon & Heptathlon). Field Hockey At least one medal match will finish without any goals scored from penalty corners. There will be medalists from at least 3 different continents between both events. Handball At least one group (in either men's or women's competition) will finish with no team with zero points (=all losses, no draws or wins). A non european team will make it to semifinals (men's or women's). Judo Japan will win at least 7 gold medals. Surfing At least one medalist (men's or women's) will be a surfer that didn't take part in any stage (contested prior to the 2020 Olympic Games) of the 2021 World Surf League.

This is not like flipping just two coins though. Switzerland's 100% conversion against France evened out today and they lost as a consequence
