I thought they would mess this up somehow, and they almost did. But thankfully, Denmark messed up even more.

Die Handballerinnen. Also den Quotenplatz als Weltmeisterinnen werden sie wohl kaum holen, aber die Quali für das Qualiturnier ist wichtig, entweder über die WM oder vielleicht auch über ihr EM-Ergebnis.

Yes, there will be a small final anyway.

Laura Hottenrott ist beim Valencia-Marathon in 2:24:32 die Norm gelaufen. Sie ist die nun schon vierte Deutsche, vergrößern tut sich das Team also nicht. Richard Ringer, der die Norm ja schon hatte, verbessert seine Zeit auf 2:07:05.

is not yet qualified. They still need to win their game against .

Don't be so pessimistic. Right now, Netherlands is three goals better than England. And if they beat Belgium in the last game, they will at least add one other goal. So if the Netherlands wins against Belgium, England will need at least a 4:0 against Scotland. If Netherlands wins with two goals, England will already need 5.

If they use the same criteria as for Budapest, Germany will send everyone with the official standard and some with the rankings. They'll use a B-standard, that those who qualify over the rankings have to fulfill.

Bei Olympia aufgrund der generell kleinen Teams weniger, vermute ich. Es sei denn, Teams schließen sich zusammen.

Brazil beats Italy 3:2 and gets the final ticket. Italy will still qualify via ranking. Cuba still has the chance via ranking as well. They are not far behind Serbia, though a win against Iran today will help even more.

It is very well possible, that gets a Q. For this, they need to defeat Iran 3:0 or 3:1 and hope for a 3:2 win of Italy against Brazil.

To be fair, the hosts being top seeds instead of getting seeded according to their World Ranking is the only real drawback. Other than that, the qualification system in Volleyball is pretty good. This wasn't always the case in the past.

That's the qualification for Canada. I'm sure they won't lose against Mexico.

This whole tournament was a fantastic and positive surprise. German teams playing in Brazil really seems to work quite well. Hopefully, that's a positive sign for our women in Basketball.

One country out of the five regions must be qualified. If they already qualified through the tournaments, than they don't have to through the ranking.

Also wenn sie es jetzt noch aus der Hand geben, müssen sie zurück schwimmen.

Jetzt ist die Quali im Grunde Pflicht. Zumal aufgrund des Tabellenstandes und der weiteren Spielkonstellation, in der sich die direkten Kontrahenten alle noch gegenseitig Punkte abnehmen, sogar selbst eine Niederlage aus den letzten drei Spielen die sichere Quali bedeuten würde. Sie sind als krasser Außenseiter ins Turnier gestartet und hatten nichts zu verlieren. Aber das hat sich geändert. Jetzt kommt zum ersten Mal sowas wie Druck aufgrund der neuen Situation dazu. Hoffentlich kommen sie gut mit der veränderten Ausgangslage zurecht, nehmen die ausstehenden gegner auch ernst, und dann können sie den Sack zumachen.

I can totally see our team losing one or more of the matches, in which they are favourites now (meaning against Czechia, Qatar and Ukraine) and losing the quota. But yes, the chances to qualify are now higher than I ever expected them to be.

has 6 - Team men - Dauser, all around men - Schäfer, all around women - Schäfer, balance beam - Dauser, bar - Dunkel, pommel horse

Hat nicht geklappt. Drei Startplätze hat man aber.

Why does the third German quota go to Meolie Jauch instead of Sarah Voss (Floor)? Voss finished higher than Jauch. Is it because Uneven Bar comes first?

Germany has three major injuries, most notably the former European Champions Emma Malewski and Elisabeth Seitz. So I'm a bit sceptical.

Und Emma Malewski ist auch verletzt.

Not necessarily. You need to be in top 2 of the teams who didn't qualify for Paris or the OQT at the World Championships. So Denmark, Spain, Sweden, Germany, Norway, Hungary and depending on who becomes European Champion maybe even Croatia can finish in front of you, and Poland still has a chance.

Malaika Mihambo and Florian Wellbrock Though German fans and athletes could actually vote in a poll the last few times, and I assume, this will be the case in Paris as well.

Die Kunstturn-Männer haben sich qualifiziert.
