  1. I had Eurosport from the beginning of 1999 and then I started to be interested on tennis and winter sports, which were always broadcast there. I really like Juan Carlos Ferrero - actually coach of Alcaraz. Gustavo Kuerten from Brazil was the favorite in Paris in begining of 2000 years.
  2. He failed the opportunity of his life and Agassi won Roland Garros for the first time in his career. Sampras never managed to do this.
  3. Do you remember that tennis player from Ukraine - Medvediev, who lost in the final of the French Open in 1999 vs Agassi? The Ukrainian then led 2-0 in sets and lost 2-3. Do you know what's happening to him now?
  4. Terrible situation. From 2022 they knew they would have to make difficult decisions and only at the last minute would they do so and create even more chaos. It was exactly the same in 2016, but then the situation with doping was new. Now they were over 2 years and it would be the same.
  5. If Italy doesn't win today, they will be eliminated. On the other hand, Croatia played terribly today. All hope is that Spaletti will perform another miracle after Mancini.
  6. I'm afraid of today's match against Albania. I feel bad emotions, like before the play-off match against Macedonia in 2022. On the one hand, I trust Spaletti but on the other hand, Italy scored only 1 goal in 2 friendly matches before the Euro.,, This is a strong group that if we don't win against Albania, it will be difficult to advance.
  7. I was on his Instagram and I don't see his training. The IOC should clarify the relocation issue as soon as possible.
  8. Unfortunately the Taliban regime doesn`t seem to recognize sports at all, so the level there is very low and it used to be like that. It`s a pity that a government like that in Iran or Pakistan cannot be established in Afghanistan, where there are normally sports federations and these countries win medals in various disciplines. Btw., during the pro-US government in Kabul, sport in Afghanistan was also very weak. As you can see, this is a serious and deep problem and the constant confusion in this country doesn`t allow us to change it.
  9. It seems that the form was prepared for the European Championship. There, Germany unexpectedly lost to the Netherlands in the 1/2 and we lost our chances of advancing to Paris. Here It was bad from the beginning: poor qualifying and the drama with Iran in the 1/8. If we won, China would be 1/4 anyway... The chances of moving up in the rankings are 1%, because India and Indonesia got too far away. Pity. However, I prefer the men's team with QO, which we have a chance to win a medal, than the girls' team, which are simply too weak.
  10. What counts more for the statistics is that we have a larger number of players from different disciplines: 30 or 31. CONI likes to boast about such statistics. Too bad we can't qualify any men since Rio or even earlier?
  11. Vivarelli is going to the second Olympics in his life. Big success for her.
  12. I would prefer Sinner's Olympic gold in Paris to the current No. 1 ranking or even winning Wimbledon this year. Wimbledon is every year and the Olympic Games every 4 years.
  13. Today information appeared that Sinner is to play in Bastad after Wimbledon.
  14. In this year they bought Roma's matches in the LE from the 1/4 and then the Atalanta-Bayer final. They didn't even show the Conference League final with Fiorentina did they? I was abroad at the time and watched it on Viaplay.
  15. Rai recently made fun of himself during the broadcast of the European Championship in Rome. They were jumping through channels 2-3 times a day: Rai 2- Raisport- Rai 2. It was really irritating. I would prefer continuous broadcasts on Raisport without this jokes.
  16. Piccolin and Vivarelli have a QO behind english Wikipedia: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Table_tennis_at_the_2024_Summer_Olympics_–_Qualification
  17. Do you remember when the football Champions League was last time broadcast on Rai?
  18. Realistically only Sinner + doubles with Sinner in the pair can hopr on a medal. Sinner even has a chance for gold, because at the Olympics they play to win 2 sets and it will be easier to beat Alcaraz. I don't believe in the Errani-Paolini doubles - their physical conditions are too weak and there is always a Gauff or Sabalenka who will dominate them.
  19. Is there a chance for a double: Errani-Paolini? It's a joke for me that the doubles who winner in Rome and the Grand Slam finalist from Paris doesn`t have a certain qualification from the doubles ranking. So who has this qualification?
  20. The IOC doesn`t recognize this new country under the Taliban? I'm sure the flag has been changed and the one at the top is no longer valid in Kabul. I remember that during the first Taliban's rule in Afghanistan, this country was excluded from the Olympics in Sydney 2000 for missed to respect women's rights.
