Nevermind, France cant cope with this opportunity. 

If France keeps the score active after 3rd, USA will face something unimaginable.

Ne znam sta reci... 

Moglo je sve ovo mnogo bolje. Bilo je puno ogromnih pukotina, fundamentalnih gresaka. Puno sportista su ovdje dosli slucajno, nezainteresovano.

Neki sportovi moraju da se hitno presaberu jer bas nista nije valjalo.

Ipak, 3 zlata donekle vade utisak. Hvala svima koji su donijeli medalje, ponos ste!

Jedan komentar bonusa.

Jako mi je zao sto nam je klub bio prilicno neaktivan tokom igara. Znam da je makar dio nas bio pod utiskom losih nastupa ali svejedno, mislim da nam je ovo od 2012 najneaktivniji period. 

Takodje se nadam da ce svi clanovi kluba biti aktivniji u narednom periodu.

Hvala svima na pisanju

I am here from 2012, so answer is quite obvious. 

Terrible quality of the final.

I hope that France can keep up with this style.

What makes you think that China is improving in every sport, when they won a lot more medals in the past? I don’t see them improving in team sports or athletics for example. 

This is number of sports China participated in from 2000 until 2024:

2000 - 28, 

2004 - 28

2008 - 28

2012 - 23

2016 - 26

2020 - 30

2024 - 33

That's one of the reasons for my statement.

I am speachless!

Was looking for Serbia - Montenegro final (obviously) but this victory is so unbelievable!

These guys are so awesome.

Getting a gold 3rd time in a row, with many new players... 

So proud!!! 

I give a credit to China because they are improving in every sport there is.

Breaking, rhythmic gymnastics, very consistent in canoe sprint, boxing...

I saw many videos of their kindergarten children exercising, they are all lean, their reflexes much faster than of western children.

One benefit extra of this olympic battle is that millions of Chinese children will be more healthy by practicing sports.

Unlike USA children and overall population who are obese.

I'm not sure there's anything fishy about it. With their vast population the Chinese have a production line of great divers and it is difficult to compete against that

Fishy as - something has to be changed, one nation winning everything isnt way to attract more athletes and so on. It collides with IOC basic principles.

Whole system must be changed to give an equal opportunities. Diving today is based only on a battle for bronze, nothing more. If that situation happens once, nothing strange.

If that situation repeats all the time, then something needs to be done or changed.

IOC reduced number of events and athletes in many great sports. Thats a huge issue that new P. must solve.

Breakdancing is a total mess, total fiasco. 

Surfing is mostly boring to watch but i still liked it.

Skateboarding doesnt need both street and park, only one event is enough.

All mixed events are boring and should be excluded.

IOC must influence general public, not vice versa.

That day will come soon or later, after what happen in Athens 2004, they hay the "obligation" to send their best NBA team, not like before.

True.

I always wanted their loss just for the sport reasons.

After watching their moves and attutude in the final, i want their loss because they seem to be rude, vulgar, nasty bunch of MoFos.

Respect towards opponents is mandatory, but they are probably just too ignorant to understand that basic human rule.

Just watching a replay.

Deserved win but this USA team is a disgrace to all normal beings. Their behaviour is shameful, their attitude is pitiful.

Day will come when their best team will lose. And that will be a very nice day. 

I am glad that justice was done, but IOC and FIG should be ashamed to select this kind of refs/judges/jury. 

Mistakes they were making were obvious even to untrained eye.

I dont know if someone mentioned the fact that France had 10(!!!) players from Tokyo here.

I wonder if Zhamalov can find Uzbekistan on the map 

and Valiev the same with Albania

 

these guys never even heard of those countries until this year. they couldn't make the Russian team (had nothing to with the war, they couldn't beat Sidakov) and just moved somewhere else. and IOC once again ignored that 3 years rule and let them compete.

 

and btw, let's not forget in reality Zhamalov lost to Valiev in the QF. he shouldn't be in the final

At least Albania got good mercenary in FS.

Not every country could pick or buy the right one.

Tsabolov was fighting poor whole tournament. 

Like whole Serbian team, for that matter.

USA down to 2.

USA down to 2.

I really don't think there should be such a thing as a "world record" in morden pentathlon, given the fencing score is dependent on the quality of the opposition and the show jumping and cross country courses are non standard (and of course the horses are non standard either).

I agree, was surprised myself.

For the record, WR for 

I have a strong feeling that in HJ 2.27-2.29 will be enough for a medal.

Great news.

I hope that new P wont keep this politics of turning Games into teens pastime.

USA coach is a definition of something called "soccer mum".

And will probably win some golds in Athletics and Wrestling

Wrestling - probably only Kyle Snyder. That girl can surprise but Kyrgyz girl is a favorite, no doubt.

Oh it was definitely a horrible dive, I’m just saying that the Chinese winning gold was far from certain before that

This speaks volumes.

Winning all golds is mandatory in 99.99% of competitions.
