England starts their semifinal against New Zealand with a try within two minutes

Medal ceremonies in Tokyo after races in Sapporo, somehow they've managed to make it even worse Come on, hand those damn medals out when the athletes are still exhausted and all sweaty and full of emotion

And there we go

Luckily I wasn't talking about his behaviour outside of the course, which was nothing special indeed, so this is rather far besides the point.

The best, most wise people are generally those who don't put themselves in the group of best, most wise people

Haha. Started my Saturday with a good laugh

Watched it now and that should really have been a corner, the ball crossed the line after it was last touched by a Spanish player. Insane there's no VAR at this level

Just watched the only women's final I was interested in and yay, Fontijn finally won the gold Oh wait, AIBA being the corrupt freaks they are Seriously, what the hell Bit of shame on the Welsh team, but mostly shame on AIBA. Again.

Didn't find it on WAKO either Just the YouTube channel, but I just don't have the time to go through hours of this as well while I'm still catching up from the past few weeks

Any idea where results and such can be found? There's no Wiki for this and the official Sarajevo website is...let's say, not very useful The Netherlands has been in the top of kickboxing for years, but I wonder how they do in this version.

I had no idea about who was supposed to be the better boxer before the finals, so I basically started from a neutral standpoint and in all of the first seven finals I watched, my three-round score added up to the same winner as the official winner, so yeah I think those were the right verdict indeed. When watching the super heavyweight final I thought Kunkabayev was better, specifically in the first two rounds where Jalolov was mostly just pushing him, holding him and otherwise avoiding him, but he might have made up for it with a good third round so I can accept that one.

Thanks Italian hckosice

Finally got to watching all finals, good to see at least there were no weird results there I kept score after every round and apparently had 7 of 8 winners correct except for the very last one

Seriously though, I'm never a big fan of one person dominating, but the way Hirscher sometimes burned down the entire course behind him and utterly destroyed his rivals was breathtaking to watch. I won't miss him dominating, but I will definitely miss those runs.

Yuasa once was someone who could go on a kamikaze run and actually have a half-decent time, but those times seem long gone I have some hope for Goggia but even she seems to be less mega-aggressive nowadays

Yeah, I mean it's probably gonna be closer, but nobody is going to throw themselves down the hill in madman Hirscher style anymore

Meh, I'm less interested in that one now

And you lied, it's not tomorrow 10:00 CET yet, it's still more than 13 hours away

Every time I hear anything about any sort of nasal surgery, especially inside the nose, I'm like "yugh get it away from me". Poor Vlhova.

Time to keep on shining for Alice Robinson Is it tomorrow 10:00 CET yet?

Now I (very vaguely) remember, but that was the federation's fault anyway I did heed your advice though and have not yet visited Tonga since then

So infamously that I don't even remember it, apparently

Now it's a matter of hoping the dude didn't make a mistake or misread something and made her really, really happy for nothing

I particularly liked the Brazilian flagbearer. I don't remember much about the rest of the ceremony
