 -   once again   The rematch. The toughest match for Italy at the Euro. The streak at stake and a potential second tournament win in one year for the Adzzurri. Let's hope for fireworks again 

1 - 2, and the match was quite intense. Personally, I enjoyed the game. And I wasn't rooting for anyone Just watched the game!

Apparently, this is what she broke on both sides...the scaphoid bone? I didn't even know there were 10+ single tiny bones in that small part of the hand alone 

According to Swiss media, she wanted to jump on some piece of equipment, but fell backwards.

It takes a lot of effort to break a bone that small. Apparently, it was unlucky.

Why do you think that Doha 2032 never progressed past the Dialogue stage? 
 

It is a safety issue for the athletes.  It is a bloody oven in Doha,  and the IOC will not countenance athletes, officials and spectators dropping like flies with heat stress.

 

You cannot hold the many outdoor Olympic events like the Marathon, Triathlon, Road Cycling, etc in a Doha in an air conditioned stadium.

And they were right to take care of the athletes! Anyone who is an active runner knows that it's a lot harder to do in the heat.
