Sincraian is also a proved cheater, it's the second time he was caught.

True what Romanian sources do you consult?

This is not sport any more

When Nistor was robbed by referees I was sure yoka will be olympic master puppet; everything was set up for him

Unfortunately it was not just a bad Olympic; it's true we had bad luck on some particular events, but overall the disaster was predictable. After the fall of communism (1989) our country "managed" to develop a strange type of free-market economy. The state assets got robbed by wiseguys, and individual businessmen were interested only in short-term profits. On top of this, the sports infrastructure was getting old and non-competitive, but no one even thought of building new sports halls. Romania kept getting some results in major competitions due to athletes who were born and raised before 1989, thus the warning signs were ignored by the sports activists and the public. To sum it up, the major problems are: 1. lack of sports infrastructure 2. huge robberies of sports federations funds 3. lack of interest from old coaches to update their knowledge/training methods. I don't think these problems will be solved in the near future, especially the one mentioned at nr.2, which is crucial. Romanians still have the fascination of robbing money (mainly from state, but not only from state); as long as this habit is alive, sport doesn't have a chance to regain its former glory.

Do you want to hear the long story or the short one?

Is it politically incorrect if I say Snyder looks at 20 yo like a freaking monster and if you pinch him, lots of steroids would flow away from his body?

What would you have expected him to do? throw away the flag?

Thank you! very bitter Olympics for us...but ended with a little ray of sunshine

Andriitsev destroyed Boltukaev! 8-5 final score after 0-4 at the end of first period

MHSN, please tell me if Saritov does stand a chance vs Snyder.

It was a fukin' disgrace; all spectators and fellow boxers were shocked. This is not sport any more and I won't ever watch this mafia playground

Thank you

Me too, I will never understand it

What do you mean?

You definitely have some issues; we lead from start to finish https://www.rio2016.com/en/fencing-womens-epee-team-gold-medal-match

Thank you! Did you watch the final?

Ana Branza had an astonishing comeback; I also thought it's all over when trailing 20-23 with one minute to go

And now we are in the final after crushing Russia 45-31. We will face China in gold metal match

I know they have a common cultural heritage and I understand why they cheered for Angola, but BOOING your partner's attacks at Olympic Games? I've never seen it before. Then wtf will they do at Brazil - Romania direct game?

Unfortunately I'm not very optimistic in this matter; the old corrupted dinosaurs from IOC will keep on giving the Olympics to third world mobsters who know how to...oil the engine, if you know what I mean

Man, these are exactly my thoughts, just like you were my twin brother

I completely agree; they're the worst Olympics since Moscova 1980

Maybe thiago simoes or another brazilian user can tell us why the crowd was booing us right from the start; did we do something wrong and offended the mighty brazilian nation? I've never seen this at a handball game on a neutral venue.

If we play like in '76 we qualify to next Olympics
