Wow Cyprus! What a comeback!

Guitar / band hero maybe But I don't think it's played in e-sports currently . That's actually my biggest issue with e-sports, the focus is too much on one or two genres (though I admit I don't know a lot about it so I could be wrong).

If Netherlands lose tonight and still come 2nd they probably won't have enough points for a play-off (horrible rule which I hate as the best groups are most likely to have fewest points).

Bulgaria 2-2 Sweden and a missed penalty too.... it's not even half time yet

Sweden miss the penalty! Go Bulgaria

I'm not strongly against it, I have an open mind on it hence why I didn't vote. If I saw some tournaments and e-sports could show to me that it is firstly watchable as a spectator friendly sport and had a variety of different game skills and types (not just shooters and FIFA) then I could live with it. I think now is too soon but I am no more against e-sports than adding horrible mixed relays and such for the sake of it.

They added mixed 4x400m in athletics so anything is possible these days

Good, because I am likely to miss some milestone so I need more counters

24 weeks to go!

Billy Walsh left his role in Ireland in late 2015 to coach the US boxing team..... success quickly followed. Our federation treated him like crap.

4th place for Mona in the 200m breaststroke, so close to her third medal. 3 medals, 1 gold, 1 silver and 1 bronze, 2 x 4th places, 7th place and a 6th place in the mixed medley relay. This is bizarrely good for our standards. Delighted with these performances

It's a very good question honestly. Rio 2016 could hardly have been more farcical for AIBA and yet there is no major boot in their ass to get them to reform. Their reforms a few years ago were a complete joke because they just made it easier to cover up cheating

Surprise, surprise.... Kazakhstan were involved. Always the same cohort of nations have all the influence in this non-sport. The farce is so blatant these days that they simply don't care. They will investigate a few referees post-tournament and that will make everything ok

From 2nd to 14th. No comment needed

When she is behind she always aces the combined.... when she is contention she always has an absolute disaster in the combined..... there is no middle ground

What a disaster Natalya..... what the hell was that?

Natalya still in with a chance of a medal

Fantastic bronze medal for Cian and an overall great championships for our team. If you had said to me before the Europeans that we would be leaving with team gold and an individual medal I would have said you are dreaming. Thank you Gothenburg

Woohoooo!!! Mona!!!! Before these championships we had never had a world junior swimming medal. Now we have 3!! A gold, a silver and a bronze and a 4th place too!! Awesome, I can't believe it

Come on, what's with all this talk about being average...... everyone knows that we good folk of Totallympics are far from the average, we are the best. @bestmen already knows this, hence his username..... otherwise he would be called "averagemen".

11th place for Arthur isn't bad considering he had a disaster in fencing (as he mostly does).

She is top 5 even or am I mistaken?

Arthur my man.... great personal best in the swim and well a not-so-good fencing round, but I forgive you for that...... but what I can't forgive you for is this very questionable choice of underwear.....

Natalya Coyle in 2nd place after the fencing ranking round last night. Fantastic start for her

Haha, loved the spoiler suspense, felt like I was opening up a package with multiple wrappings No Olympic team events anyway that I can think of, maybe some cross country or trap shooting team events or something similar but I don't remember anything of note Here we call the GAA handball simply "handball" and the international version "Olympic handball", because it is a weird exotic sport here that no one sees but at the Olympics
