Summer Olympics 2024

[LTU_btc]

Another day of Olympics is going to end soon. There was many memorable moments again.
In men 1500m we have big suprise - Jakob Ingebrigtsen ended without medal as he was just 4th. Cole Hocker took gold with new Olympic Record.
In Women 200m USA took one more Gold, Gabrielle Thomas won race. Julien Alfred got silver, winning 2nd medal in whole Saint Lucia history.
In women football big suprise is approaching. Brazil is leading against Spain 2:0 with about 30 minutes remaining. It's unexpected, Spain recently is biggest force in women football. In other semifinal USA got ticket to the final after scoring their only goal in extra time.

The French basketball team is removing NBA player Rudy Gobert from their starting lineup. Rudy Gobert is a defensive player of the year in the NBA and probably makes more than the rest of the French team combined by a large margin. This is a bit of an embarrassment for Rudy I’m sure and for the NBA even.

I think no one wants to be born different from other people, so we can't exclude them just because they have abilities or shortcomings compared to others, because in terms of identity and gender, she has been declared a woman so there is no reason for us to keeps trying to stop him from fighting although he has strength equal to a man, but doesn't an athlete have to have a strategy other than relying on strength in boxing?
I think there are still ways to defeat someone who has more strength than us, so strength is not something that will be the main factor in achieving victory, of course I also realistically see that there is inequality in the match if we judge it only from strength, but I think we can't continue to bully her just because she is now able to reach the semifinals.

What you say actually I agree, if there is a distribution for each athlete who takes part in the competition as we have seen so far in the Paralympics, but isn't it quite difficult for the sports committee to divide athletes who have genetic disorders like Imane Khelif, because from what I read on google the potential for Swyer syndrome to occur is 1/80.000 births and not everyone who suffers from Swyer syndrome like Imane Khelif is an athlete, especially boxing, so I think it will be difficult for any sports committee to integrate it.

What kind of nonsense are you writing? "She" was disqualified by gender test results 2 times (and it wasn't about testosterone), she is a man.
Do you understand that if you let all sorts of mutants (or just men who pretend to be women) into the exclusive women's category, there won't be any women there at all? Anyone who is not 100% a woman should compete with men, I don't understand, is this really a complicated concept?

After taking a nasty shot to the eye from an elbow, LeBron James has been taken out of their game against Brazil. James has been putting in a ton of effort in these Olympic Games, so it isn’t surprising that he’s getting beat up a little bit.

So Gabrielle Thomas won the 200m for the US, I guess it's payback for Alfred beating her compatriot Richardson in the 100m. I really thought that Richardson is going to win but she just placed 2nd, thus a silver medal.

Congrats to Philippines as we for winning a another bronze medal in boxing. They already collected 2 golds, so far the biggest haul for them and amongst the top country in Southeast Asia in terms of gold so far.

I have also read the news that IBA has classified Imane Khelif as a male because she has the same blood and chromosomes as a male. But if she is not transgender and has not made any changes to her body it will be difficult if she has a female physique but has male genes. But being a "male" in a "female" sport competition will indeed be very advantageous because of the physical advantages. Sometimes I wonder why someone with a problem with her genes chooses to compete in a female sport. But the IOC has allowed her to compete in women's boxing and now she will compete in the gold medal match. I think Imane Khelif will win the match because of the "advantages" that "she" has.

Ouch! Well, he is still aggressive which is why he will get hurt. That is a man who ain't afraid to attack the paint or take a beating even if he is at the age where most players are retiring.
Even if someone is a Lebron hater, that man just proved a lot of things and I doubt it will be easy to erase. The love for the game is still there and I don't think he will retire soon.

Anyway, we have the semifinals tomorrow in the men's basketball Olympics game. I predict Germany and the USA will be the winners and will be facing each other in the Finals to take the Gold. Still, I think team USA will be the winner here. There's just too much firepower in their roster and defensive players.

1.You are answering your own question. She competes in a female sport, because she has an "advantage" and because women with high levels of testosterone are more aggressive and competitive.
2.The IOC should've disqualified her(and the other boxer from Taiwan) before the Olympic tournament. I don't know why the IOC isn't disqualifying both boxers.
3.And no, Imane Knelif is not a male. She is a female with Y chromosomes. This is a rare genetic anomaly.
Anyway, the 2024 Olympics are a joke and I couldn't care less about them.

Women speed climbing is very interesting because Poland athlete Aleksandra Miroslaw has broke her own world record in this tournament twice because for the first attempts she was made a record 6.21 second and second round is more impressive because he can reach 6.06 second and now this record is confirmed as the world record from women speed climbing so this result is makes her can able to quarterfinal today against the athlete from Spain Leslie Romero
However Aleksandra Miroslaw as the oldest athlete in this sport but her chances to gets the medal is very wide open and for quarterfinal i am sure she can able to beat Leslie Romero and qualified to the semifinal match

I think you would also be amazed by Cuban wrestler Mijaín López, as he has won gold medals in wrestling in every Olympic games starting from 2008. Beijing, London, Rio, Tokyo and now Paris. I dont remember any athlete, that has won Olympic gold medal 5 times in a row. I doubt that anyone could beat his record any time soon.

I would like to congratulate a boy who was very strong this year and made me win some good money because we all believed in him and we did well, Mattia Furlani who 19 years ago his Olympic debut with an amazing 8.34 ( With a meter of wind against) it is simply incredible if he plays it with the best in the world.

In women football big suprise is approaching. Brazil is leading against Spain 2:0 with about 30 minutes remaining. It's unexpected, Spain recently is biggest force in women football. In other semifinal USA got ticket to the final after scoring their only goal in extra time.

the Brazil - Spain semi finals is the most interesting and fascinating games I've watched in this edition of the Olympics football category. Was even more intensed than most of the male matches. The ideal thing I expected was a sure win for Spain with a slight resistance by the Brazilian side but the result was contrary to it. Right from the first error from the goal keeper that led to the first goal to the remaining three goals that Brazil scored, they showed full quality and dominance and didn't play like a teams whose 4 key players including the legendary mata was absent on the pitch. Even though the Spanish team played well and fought till the end of the match, every opportunity that Brazil ever had was a serious threat to the Spanish goal keeper and defence line. It's just fascinating to see a 9th place on the FIFA world ranking showing this level of quality against the best team in the world and going on to win 4:2 in a crucial Olympics semi finals.

As always it is a race between China and United States for the bigger number of medal.

France is doing greatly but they are at home and that is a big factor.
There is currently tight competition between America and China in the race for gold medals, these two countries currently seem to dominate many sports so it is not surprising that they are far ahead in terms of winning Olympic medals at the moment, America has managed to get a lot of medals from gymnastics so it is not surprising if they are currently superior in terms of medal tally and even as I write this post, America has managed to be at the top of the standings in terms of gold medal and ahead from of China.

Meanwhile, countries such as France and Great Britain actually compete closely with Australia, Japan and South Korea with a very small margin, however, the most sad thing for me is when I see the medal tally of our country which has actually slumped to 69th at the moment without a gold medal and I hope that at least later we can get at least 1 gold medal when the Olympics end.

As a country, we cannot be proud enough of our volleyball girls.
It defeated the tournament's favorite, China, 3-2 after 5 sets and advanced to the semi-finals.
Melisa Vargas, the top scorer of the match, played with 42 points and had the biggest share in the victory.
The match was fiercely competitive and there was competition in every set until the last moment, and Turkey managed to win the final set 15-12 and advance to the semi-finals.

The US team will meet Serbia in the semifinals, and I think the result of this meeting will be the same as it was during the showcase game. But at the same time, I have doubts about the outcome of the other semifinal. Personally, I expect France will be able to beat Germany, i.e. I expect to see France vs. USA in the final.

Just when I thought I'd better not bet, since I've lost enough money on these Olympics, Brazil surprises me 

It's incredible how much the team has improved since the qualifying phase and without Marta, it's like a different team
Often a team needs time to get used to and get comfortable during a championship, and often the lack of a player who draws a lot of attention can be beneficial to the team, I believe that's what happened
But 4x2 against Spain was a very good game and even if the final is against the United States, Brazil will go into the final with a lot of respect and great motivation to finally win against US

Seriously sad to hear about Vinesh Phogat getting disqualified right before the final where she was set to acquire a gold or silver which she rightfully deserved after defeated opponents like Yui Susaki. Disqualification for just 100gm extra is messed up.

Anyone who is not 100% a woman should compete with men, I don't understand, is this really a complicated concept?

Exactly! Some fools think that it's okay for her to compete just because she was born a female. Silly reasoning.

Congratulations to the Brazil women football team for reaching the final of this summer Olympics games after humiliating their Spanish counterparts with a 4:2 scoreline. I watched the game and contrary to my initial thought about how tough the game will be for both sides, it was an easy game for Brazil. They'll meet the USA women in final which will also decide the team that'll win gold. As the most successful women's football teams, the two finalists I know will give football fans a great game to watch and I can't to see them showcase what they've got on Sunday.

Today will be the last quarterfinal of the women's basketball tournament at the Olympics. In this match, the Nigerian national team will play against the USA. The U.S. team easily took first place in its group. American basketball players won games against Japan, Belgium and Germany. I have no doubt that the US team will make it to the semifinals - the difference in class between Nigeria and the US is too great.

This year's French Olympics seems to have a lot of quirks and quite eccentric news in every sport being competed.
Previously we could see the eccentric style of Turkish shooting athlete Yusuf Dikec who was indeed busy on social media with his cool style when shooting, there was also Imane Khelif who had indeed gone viral because of her controversial match because she did not pass the gender test and now she is in the final.

Yesterday there was another quite interesting and in my opinion this is quite eccentric where the French pole vaulter Anthony Ammirat who did fail to win the gold medal because his vital organs were stuck which actually made him offered as an adult film star today, He was even offered a deal paying more than $250k to do a live broadcast.
