  1. I agree Norway is the favorite now to win medals table , but Germany still holds a chance even if it's not big , Canada won't likely dominate ice hockey and Curling , they may win women's hockey and men's curling
  2. very harsh news for Milan fans , after the team was back on track in Serie A or Europa League recently
  3. Report: Milan owner bankrupt The Corriere della Sera newspaper claims Milan owner Yonghong Li is insolvent and his assets will be auctioned off on Taobao (the Chinese version of eBay). This is certainly not the first time questions have been raised on the financial status of the businessman, as the New York Times and financial paper Il Sole 24 Ore also ran investigations pointing to a lack of funds. However, this latest report suggests the situation has precipitated to the point where Yonghong Li is essentially bankrupt. Packaging company Zhuhai Zhongfu, valued at €60m and of which his holding company owns 11.39 per cent, has been ordered on sale via an auction by the tribunal in Futian to repay the Jiangsu and Canton banks. A few days ago, the China Securities Regulatory Commission also announced the start of an investigation into illicit practices from his holding company Shenzhen Jie Ande for hiding their bankruptcy for months. He spent €740m to buy Milan from Silvio Berlusconi, who had been at the helm for over 30 years, but was only able to complete the purchase via a massive high-interest loan from vulture fund Elliott Management. Now it’s claimed Yonghong Li not only can’t repay that loan, but he is also being sued for unpaid debts by two banks and the tribunal will put his assets up for auction via Taobao. The Corriere della Sera reports Yonghong Li only had €100m of his own assets to begin with, funding the purchase through €300m from Elliott and €340m in offshore funds. The timing outlined by the report suggests Yonghong Li was already insolvent by the time he was completing the Milan takeover in April 2017 and the original ruling to sell Zhuhai Zhongfu came in February 2017, but was held up by appeals.
  4. Sevilla is mush far from upsetting ManU , Juventus ofc is the more experienced team , but the Spurs have been solid along the last 3 years and they have gained much experience in Europe and they have the better result , till now , so i can say it's 55-45 for Spurs , but Juventus is always a team that's able to win in those hard conditions , in 2016 they were just couple of minutes fromdoing so to much more bigger team that Spurs , Bayern Munich before Muller tied the game in the stoppage time
  5. That's not what I meant ofc , as I said if u respect otheres and respect here means that u always accept it if u lose and admit that another athlete or team were the better side and deserve to win , other wise u see sport as a field of war and that's not what sport meant for , what I meant is that your love for your country motivates u to wish that they would the best , it's just like parents who wish their childs to be the best in the world and have the best life , but without motivating them to hate others and cheat to reach this goal
  6. I don't see caring about topping medals table is some sort of nationalism , everyone wants his/her country to be the best , it's something innate in human being ofc by fair play , IMO it's normal thing as long as u do respect others
  7. Yes , my words specifically for Canadian members here who're upset to share the gold , not sure about Germans but I think they should be the happier side now as this gold was very crucial for them to keep fighting for 1st place , so overall it should be a happy end for many fans around the world , especially of those who don't care much about bobsleigh and like to see those moments happen in Olympics
  8. I think it's much better to share the gold , than to win the silver
  9. We already knew Olympic champion in 2022 in this race
  10. Korea moves to 6th place , but still shy of a medal
  11. Would be a total disaster for Germany if they won't win today
  12. What a run by Friedrich , it's heating up here after 3rd run
  13. Japan is just 0.47 seconds short of the Dutch Olympic record , they're stronger than I expected , but still Netherlands is clear favorite for Gold here
  14. The scheduling of tomorrow is a total joke apart from other days , in 10 am local time we have ice dance , ski slope style and big air all in the same time , then we have only some curling and USA vs. Finland match till 8 pm local time , in a day with no many finals like this , it was really possible to divide qualifications over the whole period
  15. That's why iam not a big fan of technical sports based on judges , but ofc it's fun to watch
  16. I doubt if he can win again in Wimbledon
