Wondering if there is an option to ask for review of the red card post match to get it overturned.

Every school needs a astro turf pitch- we have less pitches than Amsterdam in the whole country

so just Hockey, Chopra and Sen left with any serious medal hopes.

 

Sen just do a beast mode and beat the Dane.. we need giant killers.

Sen can very easily topple him tbh. He is clearly clutch. Hope his friendship doesn't get in the way though. 

We will see. He is still young. I think he can get it done. 

 

Not sure how much advantage height gives in badminton though. Most great champions aren't tall though

Lol serious ? Well your prayers have been answered. Will be tough with less rest in the next round though cause we played with 10 men. But nothing is impossible for this team.

GBR don't have that good PC takers. Ger/Arg will exploit Amit Rohidas' absence in next game. That is the number once concern. Fulton will be working on it now.

He's retiring. Is 36 so valid. Its not cricket where you can leech off till 40 that too without performing

Axelsen is a rakshas. Will take more than the kitchen sink and smarts to beat him. 

Prannoy did it in Copenhagen last yr. 

[Gollum]

As I said earlier this is the greatest Indian defensive unit of all time. They proved it to the world today. 

 

For every one Viren, there were 10 hockey experts saying that was yellow. Even onfield umpire said if it is intentional we'll give yellow. Then 3rd umpire German said no, give red. Hope Germany meet us in the SF, we'll respond there.

Dman axleson is very big haha. Tall that is. 

Not big
