I know, it's sad. This situation was happening for almost 20 years now in Lithuanian weightlifting, which pretty much stopped the progress of this sport in country. Plus those specially selected ones by federations always end up in doping scandals... Yet we still get to see some talents shining in some of the competitions while others chose powerlifting or kettlebell-lifting..

Because our federation decided to send A.Didžbalis and no one else can even try to replace him. Pretty much why our federation send only 5 guys to Euro Champs so there won't be possible for team quota and Didžbalis would qualify through rankings with "less drama".

Silver for Stanulis Sadly he won't even compete in Olympics. Even if Lithuania wins quota in Euros it will go to Didžbalis (famously disqualified for doping before London 2012) who is not even bothered to compete in E CH.

secured +1 in women's competition. Before the last day all failed to qualify. Battle for remaining 5 quotas: can get 7 extra points can get 9 extra points can get 9 extra points can get 10 extra points can get 28 extra points can get 24 extra points can get 38 extra points can get 34 extra points can get 42 extra points that all can interrupt the top6 (with most optimistic counting) And here is the fictional top 10 standings if the last ladies event would end up according to the entry list weights: 98 points 98 points 98 points 93 points 87 points 85 points ---- 78 points 75 points 74 points (no chance) 73 points

Pitty to loose to all those Chinese bought athletes... Anyway, we shuold have one player through rankings anyway.

Sad to see Venckaitis loosing. World Championships medallist should not lose so early...

Can anyone see the broadcast? It is geo-restricted...

Glad to see quota for Lithuania. Hope for the second one with E.Stanionis

Yay, two Lithuanians in semifinals. Jopefully both makes it. Both deserve it as E.Petrauskas was bronze medalist in 2012 London and E.Stanionis is 2015 European champion.

So let's ban every single athlete with parking ticket and etc. then....

How is gambling at (illegal) casino is related to badminton and Olympics?

Team Lithuania in European Qualification Tournament Men's Tomas Mikutis (ITTF - 221) Alfredas Udra (ITTF - 320) Women's Rūta Paškauskienė (ITTF - 103) Eglė Stuckytė (ITTF - 230)

Discus Thrower Andrius Gudžius broke his leg and quite likely to miss Rio.

And why she chose to represent Romania? I doubt they paid her like Azerbaijan before. She could had just go back to representing Moldova...

+ Simonas Bilis 50m Freestyle

Good start for Tamašauskas

Something is definitely wrong. All of the Lithuanians reached their PB and even the athlete who finished "20km" course for the first time in her life reached Olympic standard.

Simonas Bilis - 100m Freestyle
