MEN'S VOLLEYBALL IS GOING TO FUCKING KILL ME

What a jump by the Venezuelan triple jump athlete! She did a world record at her final attempt!

 

[brehme1989]

Tie for men's High Jump, Italian Tamberi and Qatari Barshim share the gold!!! Amazing stuff.

 

[brehme1989]

Italy win 100m race!

Two gold medals within minutes!

Neisi Dajomes becomes the third ever gold medalist for Ecuador in history and the first woman to do so. Second gold medal for Ecuador so far

Tentoglou golden long jump

Petrounias, another Greek hope for a medal, secured the Bronze in rings. Apparently a double hop at the end cost him the gold to repeat from 2016.

Still, Olympic medal, excellent outcome

Excellent day for team sports.

Volleyball, handball and basketball in particular.
Belgium beat India in hockey and will meet Germany or Australia in the final.

Women's water polo isn't half bad, men's football in the Olympics is quite shit.

 

[brehme1989]

Argentina beats Italy 3-2 in volleyball, amazing game!

The only likable (Facundo) Conte was immense.

France will destroy Slovenia in basketball.

The shared gold from the high jump is the first in Olympic athletics history apparently.

Just wanted to share this:

2016 Monaco a couple of weeks before the summer Olympics of Rio, Tamberi makes a record 2.39m and then goes for 2.41m and suffers a terrible injury forcing him to miss out.

You will notice during his fall that there's one athlete who tries to console him, wearing a particular cap.


There's plenty of articles on their relationship, but I'll leave this one here: https://www.aljazeera.com/gallery/2021/8/2/how-two-friends-decided-to-share-olympic-gold-in-tokyo

Greece beats Hungary 9-6 in the water polo semi final.
