My biggest fear comes true. Norway is crushing the world champion 16:10 at half time, Norway is much better than The Netherlands, but the referees ... 
 
Other world champion finalist Spain is also 16:10 behind against France.

This's the importance of saying no enough is enough if Simona Halep who's the most public figure of Romanian Sport right now and has a very big fan base around the world if she just said publicly that these words annoy her and the whole Romanian Community and that's racist comments then no-one would have dared to say it again this's the importance of saying Stop 

What the fuck are you talking about ? These sports don't drive the host country interest. Surfing will be held to the other place of the globe in a land that half of the population would be surprised to learn it's actually a part of the country, no one cares about BMX past puberty and certainly no one give a fuck about breakdancing.
 
What will drive host country interest are the usual suspects : Athletics, Swimming, team sports or any sport that will bring the medals and that will be forgotten two weeks later.
 
This additional sport selection had little to do with the host country, but mostly with the IOC trying to pretend it's something else.
 
 

Looks like a serious foot injury for one of the best Serbian players  
 
Andrea Lekic, that is. Judging by her reaction she feels like her tournament is already over

No surprises. Maybe I would change the order in some teams.

Solid performance for the German team beating Romania 22:19. World Championship finalist Spain loses to Russia 22:31.

Stina Nilsson trying to decide between  &  now.

FINALLY a podium 

Crina Pintea is tested positive for COVID, she will miss this championship.

And that's it, luckily we didn't win 
 
 France is winner this year! Congrats Valentina!

I'm sad about  though, they are again second...

I'm also interested how Turkey managed to lose all their 3 games so far. 

Denmark beat Lithuania! 

We have done Tokyo predictions day-by-day once already here. But - if Tokyo games will really happen (and I still have my inner fear that we can't be sure of it) we can do it again few weeks before the games, when the qualifications will be going to the end. That could be fun.

World Sailing announced the remaining Olympic qualification events. Full updated calendar here:

The Danish Handball Federation will continue the preparation as if they had gotten a go from the government. They will not be the ones cancelling the championships.

I don't get it, with all those three vaccines the situation till April and May can be way better than now, they should wait at least until February, to be honest...

It seems new dates for the European Olympic Singles Qualification have been confirmed. 10-14 February 2021 in  Moscow.
