Today our NOC approved the Slovak Team and announced the whole stuff around. so they also unveiled the goals for Rio. so lets go. keep your hats ! the goal of Slovakia in Rio is simple and clear -- win a Gold Medal. I absolutely agree this is my own goal too. finally win this gold. well there many hopes, but you know sport is sport. even if you are fav you can win in great day but finish last in bad one. maybe the biggets chance for gold is ofc our K4-1000m. let say if they don´t win medal it will be a huge scandal. but gold is ofc another thing. let´s hope this time everything will work well and we will finally win this medal we are still missing...

well 6th and 8th is definitely not bad at all

okay made a quick stats, and France is absolutely amazing in matter of performing during Major events at home. They hosted Euro 3 times, World cup once and they never lost a match since the start of Euro 1984 an unbelievable streak Euro 84, World Cup 98 and Euro 2016 so far. trust it or not but last time France lost a match at home in a major event tournament was yes ofc with Czechoslovakia in bronze match in 1960.

Fantastic, impossible to timing better

yep but well, still think that this penalty was a bit too harsh..there 2 much serious unwhistled fouls in the other side
