  1. South Africa 2-0 up against the Netherlands after the first quarter
  2. So he's with his current wife, and his ex-wife calls that an affair? That's odd
  3. Are the Abe's really siblings? I was convinced I had read a while ago that they're not related, but the commentators on the ESP keep calling them siblings
  4. While waiting for the next lift, details please!
  5. To be fair, this did seem to be the hardest Chinese gold beforehand, maybe by quite some margin even.
  6. Dutch commentator is absolutely puzzled. Half a minute to go in - , 20-20 and the Netherlands has a free throw. "He makes it, very important for the Netherlands....and apparently it's somehow over now. So be it, a match with a lot of technical difficulties." The difficulties were there before the match, which is why it was delayed for quite a while, but being over at 21 is definitely not a technical glitch
  7. Maybe I understood wrong during her interview (I was also watching other things), or she meant information about the composition of the group or something It's possible that she assumed the 5 minutes was to Plichta and Shapira and when they were caught, they thought they had everyone.
  8. She made the final eventually? They just showed her landing on TV here, that was heartbreaking
  9. Van Vleuten: "The last information we received was before my fall, and was that there was a lead group and we had to start the real fight earlier than planned." Which they did.
  10. Sure, but it's also up to the riders. They can get back to the team car for some info, but of course in the final of the race you're not gonna do that. They could have done so early enough though. Plus, count right.
  11. Van der Breggen said they (everyone in the group, basically) thought they had taken back everyone from the lead group once Plichta and Shapira were caught, they miscounted. They also saw 1:35 on some screen or sign or something, and they thought it was the distance to the lead, which would have been no problem, but it was the gap between Kiesenhofer and the early chase.
  12. Seems the entire group was left without any clue whatsoever. And nobody there paid attention neither.
  13. "I was wrong*. We didn't get any information at all, so yeah." *about being in 1st place
  14. The athletes mostly, it's their responsibility. It would be bad if the organizers actually gave wrong information, but not as bad as the screw-up of the athletes.
  15. Although celebrating at the line for her (not the other Dutch women) would still be fitting even if she knew Kiesenhofer was ahead.
  16. Apparently the peloton either didn't know the gap to the lead group (they were shown 1:35 or something when it was already 5+ minutes), or didn't think there was still a lead group in the first place. Non-earpiece races
