  1. I am yet to see the finals. Where can I watch them? I don't even understand why there is no way you can watch older sport videos.
  2. I can't accept that, as players from Europe or elsewhere are in Beijing
  3. Can somebody explain why NHL players are not present at the Olympics? I read there are NHL matches, but why do the players stay with their clubs instead of the National Team? It is more important, and NHL players could play 1 or 2 matches without the players in Beijing.
  4. Szilveszter Csollány, ring Olympic champion from 2000 died after long fight with coronavirus at the age of 51
  5. You didn't really explain why they leave out special national characters. If I can write them here, then it could appear on the screen too.
  6. And why do they write only English letters in names? Why do they ignore letters like á, é, ö, or ř, š, đ, and so on?
  7. I'm a bit upset about M4Sport's coverage, because they only show and talk about Hungarians. I care less about the 42nd Hungarian than a Simone Biles or a Novak Djokovic. I want to see the winners. I write here because I wonder if the same thing happens in other countries.
  8. In fact, following my logic, all sports should have 200+ teams trying to be world champions. That only happens in football, volleyball, and table tennis
  9. There are 55 countries in Africa, even a 16-team tournament can be held with qualifying. I understand water polo is not very popular, but I imagine there are more than 10 players in every country who can play this sport. Not on world class level of course, but if you can swim and throw a ball, you can already be a member of the national team. There are 12 countries and some more territories in Oceania. On those island contries, literally everyone can swim and throw a ball. So not on world class level, but they are able to form a team
  10. A little away from topic. I read South Africa and Australia qualified by "continental selection". Why not the winners of African Championships and Oceania Championships?
  11. Eurosport player is not free to watch. Or do you know a way?
  12. I could only find a stream without commentary. I don't know why Eurosport refuses to coverage this. Without commentary, I don't understand this sport at all.
  13. Hello! Where can I re-watch the final? I can't find it on torrent or video sharing sites
  14. Disqualifying these teams from CL and national championships is understandable, but I think the players should be allowed to participate in national teams.
  15. Sorry if this was posted earlier, I did not check. The perfect sport for the pandemic is fencing. You wear mask and gloves, and if someone comes closer than 1,5 meter to you, you stab them.
  16. Tibor Benedek, 3-time olympic champion in water polo, one of Hungary's greatest sportsman, died today, aged only 47. I'm shocked
  17. I find it really strange that out of 54 countries, only 1 can find 6 men who can swim and throw a ball. Even if they lose to South Africa, it is worth fighting for 2nd place.
  18. Why is South Africa qialified automatically? OK, I understand they need an african team, but there are 54 countries in Africa. Shouldn't the winner of the African Championship qualify?
  19. I know, but it's still wrong. If you win the second tier, like AA in baseball, you still stick there. If you win Bundesliga 2, like someone said, you are promoted. That's much better.
  20. Why I am not a fan of this HANDEGG (becuase in football, you kick a ball with your foot): - They run 5 yards (how many meters? Stop using retarded units!) then they stop and talk for 20 minutes. BORING. - So boring that the half-time show is more exciting for many. - The commentators are like: "Oh, he managed to catch the ball! Incredible!!!" Let me tell you about the sport HANDBALL, where you are expected to catch the ball, you are a weak player if you don't. - There is no promotion and relegation, even if a team loses all their matches, they are still there next season. Therefore, smaller teams have no chance to play in NFL. - They act and celebrate like they are the best team in the world. No, only in the USA. Call me if you managed to win the champions league. There is no International competition at all.
  21. Hungary had to defeat Malta by 20 goals, hence the big gap. Is it the first match at the Europeans where a team failed tó score a goal?
  22. It's not only about water polo. We can say the same about cricket or netball or ... I think no other sport other than football has 200 teams trying to quality for the world cup. If you can find a handful of people who know the rules, you can already play matches. The players don't have to be professionals, even I could be there. Perfect example was the Oceanian Weightlifting championship. 1st Australia, 2nd New Zealand and noone else. There is nobody in the rest of the 12 countries who can lift at least 5 kg? That automaticly means a bronze.
  23. There are 6 automatic qualifiers. plus 12 teams played in qualifying. that's only 18 teams. There are 55 countries in Europe. The others (like Great Britain, Sweden, Belgium, etc) aren't even allowed to qualify? I never understood this, sometimes I see Asian or African championships (in any sports) with 9 teams, without qualifying. Why not 8 or 10? And the other 40+ don't even have a chance to be there.
  24. Yeah, happy new year wishes are fine, but instead bring me cake or compliment on my look, or whatever
  25. I wanted to look for the greatest comebacks of the decade. On the web, I mostly found American sports, like baseball or handegg, that I do not follow. I think this is the best topic to ask. One example in my mind is Formula 1, 2011 Canadian GP, when Jenson Button was in the pits 5 times, hit Alonso, hit teammate Hamilton, got a penalty, with 30 laps to go, he was dead last. Aaaand in the last lap he overtook Vettel for the win. Can you mention examples of comebacks where a sportsperson dropped back to last, but miracously managed to win?
