Olympian1010 7,477 Posted August 1, 2019 #61 Share Posted August 1, 2019 Again with Colombia, I didn’t see any glaring errors, but the technicality and pacing wasn’t there. Still a good performance. I bet they beat Brazil, but it should be close. “Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire.

Olympian1010 7,477 Posted August 1, 2019 #64 Share Posted August 1, 2019 Peru will be 6th tonight. Technically there were better than both Cuba and Guatemala, but their execution wasn’t perfect. At least the Peruvian crowd seems to have liked the performance. “Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire.

mrv86 2,924 Posted August 1, 2019 #65 Share Posted August 1, 2019 Great work from Canada This is what difference the top 3 teams from the rest in my opinion: each choreographic movement is perfectly time with the music and it actually "tells a story". Very clean throws, good lines... just a tiny lack of synchrony in one of their swimmers in the end, and almost at the beginning, but no doubt they should obtain the team quota.

Olympian1010 7,477 Posted August 1, 2019 #66 Share Posted August 1, 2019 (edited) I didn’t like that performance from Canada as much as their duet this morning. They will still win the gold medal and quota. They will be thing they do better than anyone (maybe even the top 5 in the world) is their throws. They send those girls to the moon.

mrv86 2,924 Posted August 1, 2019 #67 Share Posted August 1, 2019 I just love the first part of this routine, the rocket launch and the moon walk Still some mistakes in synchro during the middle part, very noticeable compared to the Canadian team. Let's see if the US team don't "steal" the bronze from them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olympian1010 7,477 Posted August 1, 2019 #68 Share Posted August 1, 2019 Wonderful routine from Mexico. I liked it much more than Canada’s, but I do think Canada executed better and had a bit more technicality. That routine will be scored 86-88, but I’d give it a 89 myself. “Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire.

Olympian1010 7,477 Posted August 1, 2019 #69 Share Posted August 1, 2019 Enjoyable routine from the US. Definitely third, but that was fun. “Sport has the power to change the world.
