Fantela brothers in 8th place after 3 races at the 49er WCH. I did not expect it would work that well already in the first year. Still bit bit worried about our sailing national team, i don't see young talents when the current team retires. In Tokio we could end up with 5 sailors only (laser, laser radial, Finn and 49ers)

taken from croatian federation website http://www.hhs.hr/aktualnosti/nove-tezinske-kategorije-organizatori-svjetskih-prvenstava-u-2018-godini-kvalifikacijski-sistem-ostvarivanja-olimpijske-norme-za-tokio-2020-g/ i wrote about it in more detail in the wrestling thread

I think the chance was tiny anyway 3 spots are blocked by CZ and north and South Korea one spot left....

2nd Medal for Croatia Melani Adamic Golic is in taekwando semifinal

Yessss unfortunately two outs in taekwando 1/4 finals

I found a bit more about our team: in archery Mario Vavro compound in diving Juraj Melsa in gymnstics the team is Matija Baron, Renato Prpic, Jakov Vlahek, Kristijana Vugrinski and Ema Kajic in Athletics Dudek and Lucija Pokos seem confirmed in Judo Azinovic 60kg, Draskovic 66kg, Beljic 90kg and M.Kumric 100kg; Matijevic 48kg, Sikic 52kg, Blagojevic 63kg, Babic 70kg, Sutalo +78kg it is also clear no team sports, and we don't have anyone in fencing, weightlifting for the rest will have to wait the update of the official site

Our team for the wrestling championship Lizatovic 59kg Janecic 66kg Starcevic 80kg Huklek 85kg Practically as expected only Etlinger is missing. Don't know why

Does anyone know our team for The Universiade i know we will have a male team in gymnastics plus one girl, few people in judo ( something like b or c team). There will be I guess few in athletics, I heard about Ruzic and Dudek (both 400m).

There is a camera view from above when you see that it is clear. Dsq justified

Matija Kvasina cycling, caught with doping in May

the dsq seems to me justified , it was on purpose i would say

You are wrong! See Serbian athletics page

2nd league: Two big surprises: Slovakia in 2nd place and Serbia going to 3rd league! also Cyprus was much better than expected.

3 teams

Actually the official side is quick today after 31 event is almost clear that Hungary, Slovakia and Lithuania go up, Cyprus and Slovenia save Iceland and Moldova down The rest within 7 points !

They are published,

It is going to be tough second day for Croatia, we have two last places as 110m hurdles, m 3000m steeple safe and few more with places at the bottom as w high jump, w shot put, m javelin, w 1500m.

Medal for Croatia in women's 49 for Kristina Tomic

Here a link to the Austrian federation. They say they are currently 10th which means 3rd league next year http://oelv.at/news/detail.php?id=6228

If it is only 2 countries going down then it is clear, otherwise will be huge fight between rank 5-10. on the top Hungary safe. Slovakia probably as well, which is for me the biggest surprise. Probably it will be between Slovenia and Lithuania

It is only 11 countries

Serbia has 134 points after day 1, Croatia should be also somewhere around 130-135

female relays is in, male in chaos
