I know I’m an old man yelling at the clouds for this but there are too many aquatic events and medals. Maskhare.

Really unfortunate we didn’t qualify for basketball this time around. Would’ve been a really good opportunity for our young talents like Amini and Jafari to get more exposure. Luckily they’ll still have plenty of opportunities to build their draft stock in the upcoming season in French league and G league

Instead of complaning and focusing on obscure sports, we should improve and be better in these sports. Some non mainstream countries have results or at least presence.

It is insane we have hard time to be better than asian competitions that are more or less at our level in collective sports. we have generational change in basketball and volleyball but we also badly lack a quality coach in these sports and in football as a whole.

Olfati finishes Top 8 in Vault and will be in the Finals for a chance to medal next Sunday

Watched Shahsavari in Table Tennis and the poor woman was restricted by the hijab and lost to the French opponent. Damesh garm she gave it her best

What Olfati has done is remarkable. I don’t think we’ve ever had a gymnast go this far.

So Saeid Mollaei didn’t even qualify to Olympics? I guess there is a better Azerbaijani now . Lol…

100m, 200m, 400m, 800m, 1600m, etc etc. don’t forget front stroke, back stroke, butterfly, side stroke, sekte stroke, etc…relay, mixed relay, relay again, bunch of nonsense

[Ostad_Goosfand]

What happened to that sepah pistol guy? He was so good last time I thought even tho he is older for sure he comes back.

Also, pakdaman got unlucky with matchup. The Korean smoked everyone to gold medal

we have some rowing and shooting coming up…

[PrinceAli]

Mojalal wins the repechage and advances to the quarterfinals!

What a performance. Beat the other 3 by significant margin

For me he is medalist candidate!
He is alredy firs iranien to win medal at ASIAN level on the vault. To bring medal from Olympic would be perfect
