Water polo, Settebello closes 7th. Campaign: “There is disappointment”

Seventh on penalty shootouts. Italy ends the Tokyo Olympics with an 18-17 victory, which began with different auspices than the results then obtained. Even with Montenegro, the Azzurri have complicated their lives. With a goal of advantage and possession 18 seconds from the end they ended up at 14-14 (3-2, 4-5, 5-4, 2-3; 4-3). “I asked the players to finish well and they played a decent match. Within our staff we have already begun to do some analyzes, even if we will then go into everything that has happened more calmly and with a cool head. It will be important to draw some conclusions. conclusions not superficially, because we are in the context of a year and a half of pandemic, of non-regularity that we have all faced for the first time. made some mistakes, how and which, in a constructive way. This analysis will have to be done with a view to growth also the players to understand what they did well and what they did wrong. An Olympics so bad, there is great disappointment , but it can be a springboard for an immediate rebirth. It has been five years during which we have given shape to a new generation; in the first two years we could have even taken a euro medal pea for the famous goal / non goal of Figlioli that with today’s technologies they would have validated. In 2019 we won the world title. At the same time, we have also created the basis for a mini-exchange that will probably be there. Already within the selection that was approaching the Olympics there are players who will have more space and we will also analyze the growth of the under 20 formed by an interesting generation that can face the senior national team “.

Rhythmic gymnastics, bronze for the butterflies in the team event

Rhythmic Gymnastics gives Italy the 40th medal of a record edition. The Butterflies hasnno won bronze in the All Around, with a score of 42.850, behind Bulgaria, gold in 42.850, and at the ROC, on the second step of the podium with 44.500. The blue team, made up of Martina Centofanti, Agnese Duranti, Alessia Maurelli, Daniela Mogurean and Martina Santandrea, and directed by Emanuela Maccarani, had closed the exercise in fourth place with 5 balls, recovering a position in the 3 circles and 2 clubs. The bronze of rhythmics closes an expedition that has never been so successful, which – from today – updates the statistics and celebrates another milestone: it is the first time in history that Italy has won a medal in all 17 days of the five-circle event . A record that only becomes equal.

The Tokyo 2020 medal table was won in the last fight: the gold in women’s basketball, in the omnium and above all the title of women’s volleyball, which made the overtaking definitive, was decisive for the Americans

From our correspondent Ciro Scognamiglio

Like a tie-break in the fifth set of the Wimbledon final, the 12th round of the world championship, the last minute of Race-7 of the NBA finals. The Tokyo 2020 medal table was decided like this: on the wire. The United States won it for 39 golds to 38, and China lost it. This time, however, it seemed that he had made it: if in the total number of podiums the difference was marked (113-88 for the USA), it is the golds who line up the nations. And with four days to go, the Asian giant was leading for 32 gold against 25. Closed. Indeed, no. The US recovered by passing a few hours ahead of the closing ceremony.

THE DECISIVE EARS

An overtaking staged on several fronts: at the Super Arena in Saitama (US gold in women’s basketball); at the Izu velodrome (Jennifer Valente, first in the omnium); and above all at the Ariake Arena, for the women’s volleyball title that made the overtaking definitive by unpinning the partial from 38 equal. Yes, because on that score the US still had 3 potential golds available (two in men’s boxing, at the end silver, in addition to volleyball), while China only one: always in (women’s) boxing, lost.

With the same number of golds, the number of silvers would have rewarded the USA, but you want to add satisfaction … The game of “where the United States won it, where China lost it” could start now and end (almost ) in Paris 2024. In a certain sense, Italy also got involved, because in the 20 km walk won by Antonella Palmisano the predictions foreshadowed a hat-trick of the Chinese, who then had to settle for a bronze.

Moreover, the Americans also had to deal with counter-performances: the most sensational remains that of the gymnast Simone Biles. However, a titanic challenge that was decided after two and a half breathtaking weeks on at least 4 fields of different disciplines. Between a dunk above the volleyball net and a punch in the ring, a sprint at 50 per hour on the track and a basketball hoop. It can only happen here. Only at the Olympics.

Hideki Matsuyama, as stoic as they come, was laughing. He and his caddie were being carted toward the first hole of a three-player playoff at the World Golf Championships-St. Jude Invitational, and they appeared to be enjoying the CBS drone that was tracking them from above. The mood was, surprisingly, light.

On a day where those who were up were down, and those who were down were up, this fit right in.

Consider:

— Third-round leader Harris English started the day with a two-shot lead. He led by three after 10 holes. He then needed a 12-foot putt on 18 to drop just to make the playoff — and missed.

— Bryson DeChambeau was one of two players two strokes back to begin Sunday. He was tied for the lead after just one hole. He tied for eighth.

— Cam Smith was the second golfer to start the final round two down. He was tied for the lead with just one hole to play. He tied for fifth.

— Scottie Scheffler and Ian Poulter were five back after 54 holes. Poulter shot a 72, Scheffler a 74 and finished tied for 10th and 14th, respectively.

The eventual winner perhaps summed it up best.

“I was watching the scoreboard — I like to know what I need to do and where I stand,” said Abraham Ancer, who started Sunday four shots out of the lead. “At one point I saw Harris, I think he was 20 under, and I was like, man, he’s running away with it, I’ve got to make some birdies. Putts weren’t dropping. I was hitting some good shots, but I wasn’t really getting much out of them and I was getting a little bit frustrated out there. I was like, man, I need to make a move, and I was just putting myself in tough spots or long putts; I wasn’t hitting it close.

“Yeah, it was definitely a surprise. I keep looking, I was like, man, they just came back two strokes. Another two, I’m tied for the lead? Walking off 16, I couldn’t believe I was tied for the lead there. I felt like I was maybe four strokes behind. You just don’t know what can happen out here, man. It’s crazy. It’s a tough golf course. Like I said, you get a little bit of wind out there, small targets, anything can happen.”

And everything practically did.

A closer look at the chaos at TPC Southwind:

Harris English

English overcame an opening bogey with birdies on 3, 4 and 8. But it was around this time that he and DeChambeau were put on the clock for slow play. And the threat, he said, doomed him.

At one point, No Laying Up tweeted that it heard English say on the CBS broadcast: “I hate rushing.”

“You definitely start the day in one rhythm, and then you kind of get out of that having to walk faster, having to do everything a little faster because you don’t want to get a bad time,” English said afterward. “It was tough, the wind was swirling obviously coming down the stretch, there was some very important shots in there, and it was tough. But I’ve got to learn to slow down, go through my routine and not really worry about being put on the clock.”

On the par-3 11th, English hit his tee shot in the water, double-bogeyed, and his advantage shrunk to two. It was zero after he pushed his tee shot on the par-3 14th well right and into the water again. He was down one after he struggled to advance the ball under a tree after his tee shot on the par-5 16th, then blasted his third shot right of the green on his way to a bogey.

English would finish with a 40 on the back nine.

“It is tough, and you’ve got some very important shots coming down the stretch here, some tough par-3s, some uncomfortable shots out here,” English said. “When you feel like you’ve got to rush, you feel like you’re not 100 percent ready for the shot and I did that a couple times today and that’s really the only thing I regret.”

Bryson DeChambeau

DeChambeau, two months ago at the U.S. Open, led on the back nine at Torrey Pines, only to shoot a 44 across the closing stretch and tie for 26th.

He was just three shots better on Sunday.

DeChambeau, after a birdie on the 9th, bogeyed the 10th after hitting his tee shot 335 yards — and into the water about 335 yards from the tee. He triple-bogeyed the next hole — as English doubled — after getting an unfortunate bounce on the downslope over the green that kicked his ball into the drink. He then limped home with bogeys on 15 and 18 — and a par on the par-5 15th after just hitting over the green in two.

DeChambeau, playing in his first event since withdrawing from last week’s Olympics due to a positive Covid test, did not speak to reporters afterward. He, too, was on the clock for slow play, and English said fans were renewing “Brooksie” chants that had started a few months back in light of his spat with Brooks Koepka.

“Yeah, it’s not real fair for them to call him “Brooksie” a lot,” English said. “It kind of sucks and obviously he hears it and it affects him a little bit and he doesn’t like it and I think that causes them to do it more. It just sucks that that’s out here right now, that they’re trying to irk people like that. It’s just unfortunate.”

Cam Smith

Smith, despite four bogeys, was tied for the lead with one hole to play.

One shot on that one hole cost him.

After a drive right and into the trees, Smith opted to take a risky route through the forest — CBS analyst Mark Immelman described the window that Smith was looking to hit through as “minute.” He’d hit a tree, his ball ricocheted out of bounds, and he’d miss the playoff by two shots after a double bogey.

Why didn’t he try a safer play on 18?

“Yeah, there was a little gap up there,” Smith said. “I had to hit like a medium flight draw, and I tried to hit it. I mean, I wanted to win, I didn’t want to chip it out and leave my chances in Harry’s hands. He was still 16 under at the time. I wanted to make sure I had a good look at birdie, and I just didn’t execute it.”

Quite possibly no one will ever make one forget Leo messi, but the roar of Memphis two minutes after Barça-Juventus It alleviated a small part of the Sunday pain of the culés and certified that topic so topical that life goes on. And so much that goes on, and the Barça he is obliged to win even in friendlies. The early goal of the Dutch forward, who soon after dared to launch a direct free kick, came as a result of a very good collective triangulation action, with Griezmann going down to the middle to receive and create, and iron as a luxury assistant. The number ’10’ was missing but there was no time for regrets and the first minutes saw a combined team that stretched and folded together while moving the ball. But ahead was Juve de Christian and company, and it was the Portuguese who caused the first scare with a powerful shot at fifteen minutes, but Net cleared well. iron, who at 18 years old was not out of tune with so much veteran, he was able to score the second, in fact he did, but Griezmann he had shot in an illegal position before. The historical and every summer expected Gamper he was leaving details, such as the consolidation of the central pair Araujo-Piqué, a wall. The grass, full of names that could well appear in the eleven of a semifinal or a Champions League final, held up well in the second consecutive game, after the women’s thrashing, as it held Net the Italian onslaught. First By Ligt and later Morata they shot the Brazilian goalkeeper, but his fists avoided the ‘bianconero’ goal.

Merry changed the goal and half of his fieldmen at halftime, Christian included. The Portuguese, very lackluster, after more than a decade contesting the greatest throne with Messi, without success, failed again to attract the spotlights that were looking at the Argentine. The fashionable footballer in the Eurocup and champion with Italy, Federico ChiesaIt took him five minutes to threaten, but there he was again Neto.

The minutes of greater equality he broke Braithwaite at the exit of a rehearsed corner. They stood in the corner iron Y Memphis. One knocked, the other hung up, and the Dane won the game against Pilgrims to finish off a goal and raise its price a little more. The 2-0 blaugrana was the prelude to seven changes, among which the Blaugrana debut of Emerson and the excessive and unfair punishment of the stands Umtiti, which they whistled after reading and hearing from someone who was to blame for the departure of Messi. The respectable, always wise, rectified, and in a few minutes he was compensated with loud applause.

And who throws the fouls?

Chiellini, which does not take prisoners, applied the maxim that if the ball passes, the man does not pass, and sat Griezmann in the green at the edge of the area. It was the fourth direct foul of the duel. A role that Messi it also leaves desert. They all attended Memphis Y Griezmann willing to draw. The first two were for the Dutch and the other two for the French.

The score, 2-0, seemed difficult to overcome but the Italians are competitive even sleeping and put Barça in trouble until they saw that there were ten minutes left. Then they got their seal of quality and raised the level of hardness.

The final chapter of the duel, with a great goal from Riqui Puig on the horn, it was rather symbolic in culé code. Collado, who a few days ago left the ‘stage’ in Germany to sign for Bruges, took the field instead of Grizmann. One was out, and the other came to ring to leave. The two will continue in this new stage. A new era that starts at FC Barcelona after the farewell of the greatest. Messi he’s gone, the Barça go on. Eternal thanks, Leo.

The gardener former MVP, Christian Yelich, is concerned about the number of players (eight) of Milwaukee Brewers apart from Coronavirus? For now, Yelich exercised on the field before Friday’s game against the San Francisco Giants, although the Wisconsin Giants have not yet officially activated him from the list of injured from COVID-19.

In her own case, Yelich thought she had a summer cold. So, he showed up early at American Family Field before the Brewers left for Pittsburgh on July 26 and asked a member of the training staff if he could administer any medication to help him feel better on the flight:

That led to a COVID-19 test, which came back positive and delayed the Brewers’ trip until the next day. Jace Peterson got caught up in contact tracing earlier that day, and it wasn’t until July 30 that the next positive players showed up. Then they kept coming, including right-handed starter Adrian Houser on Friday.

Anything to find something positive about what has been a difficult year for Yelich. He spent about six weeks on the disabled list earlier this season with a strained back, and while he did eventually return, his power hasn’t. Yelich’s .367 slugging percentage is the lowest mark of his career.

The hundred supporters of Paris-Saint-Germain massed in front of Bourget airport (Seine-Saint-Denis) are at their expense. Lionel Messi’s plane did not land on the Tarmac as initially planned, Sunday August 8. The medical visit of the Argentinian star of FC Barcelona had even been planned for the evening, before being postponed by the Parisian club.

Monday morning, white smoke was still waiting in the sky of the capital: at this stage, the six-fold Golden Ball and greatest footballer of the XXIe century (672 goals in 778 matches with Barça) is not yet officially the new frontier of PSG version Qatar Sports Investments (QSI).

Since the management of FC Barcelona announced Thursday, August 5, that the “Pulga” would not extend its lease with the Blaugrana for financial reasons, the Parisian leaders have gone on the offensive. According to the team, a three-year contract (one of which is optional) with a net salary of around 40 million euros per year has been offered to the Messi clan.

It’s so hard, I spent a lot of my life in this club. I arrived here when I was thirteen (at the Masia training center in 2000) when I was still a child. “

Farewell to Barcelona socios

Since the management of FC Barcelona announced Thursday, August 5, that the “Pulga” would not extend its lease with the Blaugrana for financial reasons, the Parisian leaders have gone on the offensive. According to the team, a three-year contract (one of which is optional) with a net salary of around 40 million euros per year has been offered to the Messi clan.

Between two tearful effusions, the man with 35 titles (including four Champions League and eleven coronations in the Spanish Liga) played on a sensitive chord in front of his audience. ” This year I wanted to stay, and it was not possible (…) I had never dared to imagine this day and even less to leave this way, sighed the star, a handkerchief in hand. It’s so hard, I spent a lot of my life in this club. I arrived here when I was thirteen (at the Masia training center in 2000) when I was still a child. “

[content] => Array ( [encoded] =>

Teenager Jannik Sinner won the Citi Open in Washington on Sunday to claim the biggest title of his career.

The Italian, 19, beat the USA’s Mackenzie McDonald 7-5 4-6 7-5 for his third ATP title.

Sinner also became the youngest winner of an ATP 500 event since the category was created in 2009.

“I’m not looking if I’m the youngest because the road is long,” he said. “There’s still much work to do. I’m already focusing on next week.”

Sinner is the ATP’s top-ranked teenager – he came into the tournament as the world number 24 and is set to jump to a career-high 15, with McDonald rising from 107 to 64.

World number five Alexander Zverev was the previous youngest ATP 500 winner, having triumphed at Washington in 2017, aged 20.

Sinner ended last year with a win in Sofia and started 2021 by winning in Melbourne, making him the youngest player to win back-to-back titles since Rafael Nadal, 19, in 2005.

His best performance in a Grand Slam event was a run to last year’s French Open quarter-finals, and he made this year’s fourth round.

Nadal aims to ‘regain confidence’ in foot for US Open

Sinner will make his third appearance at the US Open when the year’s final Grand Slam begins on 30 August, and Spanish great Nadal aims to “regain confidence” in his fitness for the New York tournament by competing in Toronto this week.

The world number three, now 35, has not yet fully recovered after the recurrence of a foot issue that kept him out of Wimbledon and the Tokyo Olympics.

The 20-time Grand Slam winner suffered a shock third-round exit in Washington, in his first event since losing in the French Open semi-finals.

“It’s been a couple of tough months for me in terms of physical issues,” said the Spaniard. “I really need to have a couple of weeks with less pain to have the confidence again on my movements.

“I know I am not at my peak yet but I think I have been practising better than what I played in Washington so I am excited to keep going here and be able to play a little bit better.”

Everything comes together at this point. United States and France will fight a duel to be crowned as the new Olympic champions in the edition of Tokyo 2020, precisely the two opponents who starred in one of the first duels in the tournament and which sounded all the alarms in the North American team. Now, after having overwhelmingly surpassed all their rivals the two best teams of these Olympic Games they will have to face one last challenge if they want to hang the gold medal.

MORE | The best performances and records in the Olympic finals

The match, which will start at 4:30 a.m. from Friday 6 to Saturday 7 August, it can be followed through Eurosport, also available on DAZN and Movistar, as well as on Teledeporte from TVE. A duel that will take place before the bronze dispute between Australia and Slovenia (11:30).

1 – United States in search of revenge

France appears in this Olympic final with the honor of having been the first and only team to beat the United States in these Olympic Games. But not only that, the Gauls achieved what Spain and other great teams could not between 2008 and 2016, ending a streak of 25 consecutive games without knowing the defeat.

Not only that, but the French have not yet fallen in this tournament, treasuring a balance of 5-0 by the 4-1 of the North Americans. There is something about the French team that has fully affected Team USA’s weaknesses in the last two FIBA ​​tournaments as Antoine Collet’s also beat them in the last World Cup in China in the quarterfinals.

That defeat on the opening day in Tokyo served as balm for the Americans who have grown since then, especially from defense, which has allowed them to form a solid team capable of solving any disadvantage at the start of a match. Although only a few days have passed, the United States has evolved enormously since that setback, leaving behind the mistakes that led them to fall that way, now they are a group more than united and consolidated.

Team USA has only lost one Olympic final in its history, that of 1972, not without controversy even to this day, a fact that plays in favor of the Americans, who will leave motivated and wanting to prove that what happened in the debut was an exception.

2 – Defense, the pillar of France

Without making a lot of noise and doing things the right way, France has managed to sneak into the third Olympic final in its history, matching what was done in Sydney 2000 and London 1948, where they also faced the North Americans. Those of Collet have in their hand to do something that only Argentina has been able to since the NBA players were allowed to participate with their respective teams: win gold. To achieve this, the Gauls will have to entrust themselves to their main virtue, which is defense, the pillar that has sustained the French on their way to the final. Without going any further, in the semifinal they left “only” 89 points to a Slovenia that had not dropped below 94 and had been averaging 105.7 points per game up to that moment.

All the weight of the defense system of France has fallen, how could it be otherwise, on Rudy Gobert and Nicolas Batum. With both veterans spearheading their defense, the French have managed to keep their opponents under 75.8 points per night. More than remarkable is the fact that in his last duel Against the United States, they remained at 40.5% in shots of 2 and 31.2% in triples. The key to this performance is in the protection of the paint, making everything converge in Gobert as the main axis of the system, conditioning the opponent’s decision-making and demonstrating his great talent for defense. Far from the image we have of the Jazz center, he has managed to make an impact even coming out of the paint, as happened against Slovenia, where thanks to his aggressive direct blocking, Luka Doncic could be contained and ended up winning.

If the French aspire to surprise and win the gold medal should minimize errors in attack while forcing the United States to play slowly, to reduce their fluency in the pass, for which they need to contain them in the pot and render their proposal based on splitting and doubling useless. That belief in creating continued advantage has been the pillar that has sustained Team USA and what can make France an Olympic champion.

3 – How far will Durant go?

1628487191 164 Three stories to follow in the Olympic final between the

That Kevin Durant was going to be the most differential player in the US National Team was something more or less predictable. His return season after the serious injury suffered in 2019 cleared all doubts regarding his talent and impact on the game, including a few Playoffs to remember. With a roster from the United States lacking as much talent as in other editions of the Games, KD has emerged as the great leader and top scorer for Gregg Popovich’s team. ANDThe forward started the tournament ranked 36th on the list of top scorers in history with 311 points. and after 5 games in Tokyo, the Nets player has climbed to the 13th place, becoming the most prolific of all time in Team USA, leaving behind Carmelo Anthony (336).

But the thing does not end here, since Kevin Durant is just 13 points behind Arvydas Sabonis, who is in 11th place in the general table., a figure that should quickly reach in the Olympic final. However, if we look at what KD has seen on the last two occasions he played a game for gold, scoring 30 points against Spain (2012) and Serbia (2016), the forward could even end his career in the Games as the 10th highest scorer as he is separated by 34 goals from Ruperto Herrera (440). To achieve this he would have to surpass his maximum in Tokyo, set at 29 against Spain in the quarterfinals, but he has already shown that he is ready to do so.

So far this tournament, Durant averages 19 points with 66% on shots of 2 and 38% on triples, to which add 5.2 rebounds and 3.8 assists, being the fifth highest scorer in the competition.

The Argentine forward’s shirt has been the best-selling Barcelona since he inherited the 10

The departure of Leo messi of the FC Barcelona After almost two decades of union, it will mean not only a hard blow at the sporting level for the Catalan team when they see their top scorer and current LaLiga top scorer leave, but also goodbye to their top seller of shirts worldwide.

Lionel messi and on the 10th they became the team’s best-selling jersey since the Argentine star inherited the number from his friend and teacher Ronaldinho, who during his stay became the smile of the club.

Messi was for more than a decade the largest seller of T-shirts in the Barcelona worldwide and Cadena Ser pointed out that three out of every five shirts sold by the culé squad are precisely from Leo.

Messi began to sweep the sale of shirts in recent years, especially with the departure of the club’s top figures in the last decade, such as Xavi, Iniesta, Puyol and Neymar himself. With these pillars of the team, the sale of shirts was more level.

Although, it is true that the last contract of Lionel messi with the Barcelona exceeded 350 million euros, it is also a reality that the forward was the player who generated the most money for the benefit of the team. According to Marc Ciria, who is the founder and CEO of the company Diagonal Inversiones and who is also a partner of the Catalan team, the Argentine left approximately 619 million 265 thousand euros in the team’s coffers.

Namely, Messi He left 235 million 610 thousand euros to the club as a balance in favor, in relation to what they spent on his salary and sports awards.

Environment to the figure of Messi You can see not only samarrets, but also scarves, cups, balls, collectible figures and other gadgets that fans seek to praise the one who became the greatest figure in the history of the Blaugrana team.

While Lionel messi exceeded a billion dollars in earnings thanks to his salary and endorsements, the Barcelona He also gets millions just from the sale of Argentine shirts. According to the site “Punto a punto”, specialized in finance, the Catalan club earned 87 million dollars annually thanks to the sold jerseys from Lio.

The influence of Messi globally, it can be measured in the United States, a country where soccer is behind leagues such as the MLB, NFL and NBA. In the North American country, Lio’s shirt was the best-seller in 19 states in the country, dominating California, Texas and Florida, where there are large Latino communities.

Messi Not only was he the top seller, but he surpassed the American figure Christian Pulisic and in third place was the Portuguese Cristiano Ronaldo in 2020.

This is how the departure of Messi means not only a setback on the field of play for the Barcelona, but also a financial gap that the Catalan club will not be able to fill immediately as it loses its greatest relic at the marketing level and the main magnet for global sponsors.
