Štefečeková is pregnant...this is the 3rd time in arow they predict her a medal since they update it each month also I love all those gold medals, I want live in such perfect world

well, at first. this is not National Stadium, because WE HAVEN´T any National Stadium. yes Slovakia is the only european UEFA nation with Gibraltar probably which haven´t any National Stadium, we played last few qualifications only thanks a special permissions from UEFA and FIFA to play in Žilina (which is a little but let´s say "modern" stadium) otherwise we would need to play our home matches in Vienna, Budapest or Prague. Last year we opened this stadium the City arena in Trnava, but it´s not a national stadium, it´s a private ownership of the club Spartak Trnava. There will need to have an agreement between the club and the federation. Our NT played there during the opening ceremony a friendly match against Switzerland. but nothing more untill yesterday when the arena hosted the cup final. at two, yes the stadium is empty. all our stadiums are always empty, which is understandable, ad 1 our stadiums haven´t any comfort, ad 2 the level is so extremely poor that it´s a torture to watch it and ad 3 peoples here just don´t care about domestic football, you will hardly found more than 500-600 peoples in our national league even for National team in the past we had terrible attendance but during league matches it´s the absolute disaster. here pics of matches of our most known and famous clubs (I suppose you know him) Slovan Bratislava

unbelievable start of the match today. incredible, insane and absolutely awesome 1st period. 17-4 shots in 1st period. almost all 20 minutes we played in Denmarks defence zone! after the break Denmark found much better tactic, changed their play and the match became more equal.

LIST OF OFFICIALS The IIHF Officiating Committee has selected 16 referees and 16 linesmen to officiate at the 2016 IIHF Ice Hockey World Championship in Russia. Pending formal approval by the on-ice officials, the referees and linesmen listed below will call games at the 2016 IIHF Ice Hockey World Championship that will take place in Moscow and St. Petersburg from 6 to 22 May 2016. The officials were selected from a list of 63 candidates whose performances in international and domestic competitions were closely observed during the last few months. The referees and linesmen join from 12 different countries. The group includes both experienced officials combining for 62 World Championship and Olympic participations as well as ten officials who will work for the first time at the top men’s senior World Championship after having previously left their mark at other international events. Among the most experienced referees is one from the host nation. Konstantin Olenin called games at six World Championships and one Olympics. He officiated the gold medal game of the 2013 IIHF Ice Hockey World Championship in Stockholm and the bronze medal game of the 2014 Olympic Winter Games in Sochi. Daniel Piechaczek from Germany even had one tournament more – 7 World Championships and one Olympics.

Sagan won today some points for the ranking, so the first step is done - he is now eligible to start in OG cross-country race. now the thing is, we SVK have to win 2 quotas for Rio if we will, we´ll ask for a wild card for him (he already won a quota in road race so it wouldn´t be a problem) to see him competing also in MTB.

yes sure for british standards it´s a huge time, it´s a new NR, but yeah, not only for british. In fact it´s a very fast time it´s not so usual to see fast times so early in the season in race walking, even in indoor part of the season. but it´s true that a ukrainian guy was even faster in January. I remember our coasch said that he wasn´t surprised by Tom´s win but with his time, he didn´t expected so fast time. the world record is 18:07 something.
