@Bohemia @Benolympique and other French users. Did you make decision if France will host upcoming edition of TISC Open? We have reached another September and it would be good to know if you already thinking about something 

I wonder the same. 

 20 years old Maja Åskag. 

New PR 14.27 in Triple Jump only two cm from Carolina Klüft’s Swedish National Record. 

IMO this is one of the best National teams in the world. I really hope they get the chance in the Totallympics awards this year. We need to find a way to make it possible for this amazing Swedish team to compete in the awards unlike last year. 

SWEDEN  

Mondo tonight. I really hope we can follow it unlike the discus final that we got only few glimpses from the television. 

More tennis retirements. 

 Mikael Ymer, 24 years old, retires from all professional tennis. This after he was suspended due missed doping tests. 

TBH  I will not miss him

Can anyone explain for me what’s the point with to give the medals before the prize ceremony? 

What a brilliant Discus final.

Happy Swede here but congrats to Ceh, Alekna and Denny too.  

FIFA does everything to make Sweden not win.

1. Played their 16 round match one day later than Japan.

2. Still it was Sweden that needed to travel to an another place for the match against Japan.

3. Japan got a penalty that not was a penalty. 

4. 11 minutes added to the second half. To give Japan a chance to make 2-2 perhaps ?

I agree that it won't be any case of walk-over, but I don't think the danger on the counter is as large. However, the danger with corners is substantial, if you will play good enough to get any of them.

 

It also helps on the mental side to not play a team you just lost 4-0 to.

Or to not play against a team that you lost 0-4 to make you think it will be easier? That is probably the worst thing to think before a game.

I think Spain will have an easier time against Sweden. This is great.

This thinks every team and then it’s not that easy to beat Sweden. Ask USA and Japan

Just managed to catch up now, but did the American women ever train a single penalty kick? Holy moly that were some pathetic attempts, zero power or commitment or anything behind it  

Sorry but I feel they were very arrogant during the shootout. 

USA only allowed one play goal against them in 4 matches and is out? 

2-0  on penalty
