Crazy final match and deserved with for Spain against France.
It is not often we see eight goals in final but goalscorers were motivated on both sides.
I can see Sergio Camello changing his club for much bigger contract soon, Rayo Vallecano wont be able to hold him for much longer.

Team USA is almost gold in basketball. They’re up by 8 at halftime in the gold medal game. Looking like they’re going to be taking first place in the Olympic tournament and bringing home the gold once again. France is putting up a fight, but it appears that America is still the home of the greatest basketball players in the world.

This is a very difficult situation for our country even though when it comes to the Olympics, Indonesia has always relied on badminton as one of the contributors to the gold medal but this season it seems like we failed to contribute to gaining gold because we can only get one bronze medal at the Olympics this time in badminton.

The lack of regeneration from PBSI as an organization that regulates badminton in Indonesia including managing its athletes makes the situation complicated because the athletes who are brought are just that when they should be able to compensate or be able to find coatings for senior athletes who already exist today. Senior athletes in Indonesia are old enough but their coatings are still below in terms of level which makes this Olympics we have to give up the gold medal which is actually always a superior for Indonesia.

Unfortunately, they are mixing everything together with political ideologies even with sports where it should be used only for peace and fair gameplay, and representing your country in any sport event is way different than creating more racism or conflicts. The people behind wars and violence are bunch of people called politicians, and they are not even fighting or risking their life, while they easily use their troops and slaughter thousands of people with cold hearts.
In this olympics, our country faced many criticism from other athletes of different areas, just because of the different ideologies we share. However, everyone got what he deserved and each athlete or team won medals resulted from their own hardworking and preparation.

The olympics basketball gold medal game is ongoing right now between the hosts France and the United States. The USA are the favorites to win the game, but France are showing good character and are playing very well. The USA have won the first quarter 20:15, so we'll see how the second quarter goes, it is a pretty interesting game to watch, go see it if you can.

The women soccer match has ended and the American women soccer team has shown their prowess by beating the Brazilian team in the final with a score of 1-0, America has now succeeded in increasing the amount of gold they have and making them still able to compete closely with China as a country that won the most gold medals in the Paris Olympics, the final match between America and Brazil was very tight because both teams were very aggressive in attacking from the start of the match, Brazil and America who played more openly in the match, actually had many opportunities to score goals, but it was the bad finishing meant that both teams had to end the match with a score of 1-0 for America win.

The American women national team has shown consistency and extraordinary performance since the Olympics started, they were even able to reach the final by beating other favorite teams, today victory in the final has become a new record for the American women team who were able to become the most successful women soccer team so far in the Olympics with get 5 gold medals since women football was included as a sport at the Olympics in 1996.

Another controversy in this Olympics edition and this time it's about the Australian breaker Raygun. I was entertained by her performance to be honest, but it was messed up seeing her get a 0 and trolled like crazy.

She tried something creative and got screwed sadly. Change is tough to appreciate in the modern world and this example proves that.

It was a surprise to me personally that the Russian and Belarusian players were invited in their personal capacity as independents, although I encourage this, but the rest of the participants in the tournament represent their countries. In my opinion, this is a kind of racism.

This is not the first time that an attempt has been made to impose ideological procedures related to geopolitical conflicts and international sports tournaments. One of the most famous of these was North Korea's candidacy for the World Cup in England in 1966, and the North Korean team was treated racistly by the organizing committee due to the impact of the Korean War and the Cuban Missile Crisis within the Cold War between the two poles of the world at that time.
The irony is that North Korea succeeded in qualifying for the second round after defeating Italy (surprising everyone) and achieved the championship of being the first Asian country to qualify for the quarter-finals since the establishment of the World Cup. The player who scored the goal against Italy said a famous sentence in an interview years after that match: "When I scored that goal, we won the hearts of the people of Middlesbrough (the city that hosted them throughout the tournament). I learned that playing football can improve diplomatic relations and promote peace."

Indeed a really interesting finals and this just confirms that the Spanish national team is set to be on another golden era of football because in both competition that they have played they all performed to the very picture of excellence. Talking about the final game is just something else because this is exactly how a final should be played as in full of excellence because this Spanish team didn't actually hold back even when they equalized the 3 goals they fell 2 goals advantage they took from France.

Feels like USA vs China in the Olympics could be one of the most fun thing I have seen, and the fact that it is also such a politically charged thing makes it so much more fun as well. Thank God I am not citizens of both places, but at the same time we are talking about something that is taking a long place right now and when this is over it is going to be something winner side will talk about until the next Olympics as well.

It's fun to see this working so well, because in the end it's all about "capitalism vs communism" type of thing as well lol. And yes of course just Olympic gold medals do not decide that, and to be fair to USA they have so much more medals too, not just gold medals, they may lack one gold medal in the end, but they are way way way more ahead when it comes to other medals. So it's quite good and important, but at the same time there are other stuff in the world that is making this a real thing as well, we should be considering this as important things.

The final match was very exciting, where it was very clear that both teams were equally determined to win, and I think both Brazil and the US deserve to be in this final, but there is only one who will be the winner. I thought the match would end with a draw and would continue into extra time, unfortunately, with so many chances they had, Brazil failed to equalize. Brazil played quite well, but it was the US goalkeeper who dashed all their hopes.

Congratulations to the US Women's football team for winning the gold medal.

The match has come to an end and it was only one goal that was scored in the match by M. Swansea to make the difference in the match on the 57thminutes. I didn't believe that Brazil will not be able to win the finals but as we can see the US female players are more desperate in winning the Olympics this year and they achieved it. There was an additional 10 minutes of extra time but still Brazil was unable to equalize the goal and extend the match to 30 minutes extra time. USA won a lot of medals in this year's Olympics.
Congratulations to USA female football team.

Yeah the US women's and Brazil women's team match up fairly evenly.  Yes last Olympics they took a bronze this team is much different.  Fresh legs up front with Smith and Rodman leading the way.  I just think the women's team in years past just played too many older players and it got stale.  It's been fun watching this team play vs years prior

We had a very exciting match. I thought Spain would win the match easily but the way France returned in the match was remarkable. Although they can't win the match but it was a good effort from them. It was the Substitute Sergio Camello who socred twice in the extra time and helped the Spain win the Gold Medal.

Also, the Women's Football Gold Medal Match is in progress and both teams Brazil and United States of America  are unable to score their first goal. Seems like whoever makes a first goal, will win the final. Remember that in the last Tokyo 2020 Olympics United States took a Bronze medal.

Just like you, I'm also rooting for a Brazil women to beat their USA counterparts in their Olympics football women's final that's already underway. It's halftime already in that game and none of the finalists have been able to find the back of the net despite the attacking threats that's been posed by both sides. From my assessment of the game, I think it'll be decided by a narrow win. I want to stake a live bet on the game and I'll go with a Brazil win.

I hope we can manage to add another medal to our achievements. But for now Brazil are 1-0 ahead on sets.    At least for a bronze medal we can show our best performance. We made simple mistakes against Italy while they were doing the same with the serves. This also caused us to lose our chance for the final. But I can't deny the fact that we are having big problems against Italy every time.

By the way it has been one of the worst Olympics run for us. I hope we return stronger next time.

The final rounds of women's volleyball matches have also started. We are watching a very competitive match between Türkiye and Brazil in the third place match. Brazil was ahead in the first set, but it is very difficult to know who will win the match. Brazil is making fewer mistakes, if Türkiye continues to play this way it will lose the match.
However, there is a big difference between the beginning and the end of the match, Türkiye can start playing well again. A good match awaits us

Spain is currently dominating football, after the senior national team previously won the Euros, now the junior players have again won gold medals at the Olympics. Spain was behind first but their slick play managed to make a 3-1 comeback in the first half. France, who were in a disadvantageous position, tried to recover from their deficit, adding two goals in the second half managed to make the score equal again at 3-3.

Spain who have quality players in their squad, managed to show their class, they managed to finish the match with a win and at the same time dashed France dreams. Spain has a golden generation in football, the young players are performing very well and also have a champion mentality. Winning the Olympic gold medal completes Spain's success this year. They were incredible to beat the team that was favored to win the sport.

It'll probably be Brazil's last chance of a gold medal at these Olympics, so I'll be rooting hard for Brazil to beat the United States in the Women's football final
My only bet will be both teams to score, with 1.94 odds

I don't have the courage to bet on Brazil, after all I've lost practically every bet I've placed on the women's team so far and I'm not going to risk it again, even if I'm rooting for them 

France men's Olympic volleyball team secured the gold medal after beating Poland with a convincing score of 3-0 in the final. They had a very impressive performance and already looked promising in the first set. Unlike Poland, which I see only relies on power, France has a strong mentality and intelligence, and that difference is what gives France the upper hand. France does have the advantage of playing at home, but if this match were even held in Poland, I think France will still be able to beat Poland.
