🏐 10:00: Slovenia – Poland, Olympic Games 2024, volleyball (men), quarter-finals
Intrigue: Will the Poles break the quarter-final curse?
Poland has been eliminated in the quarter-finals for five consecutive Olympic Games. Now, it seems, the Poles have it all: the deepest squad, a star in the person of Wilfredo Leon, a record of victories. But the game in Paris does not inspire optimism; the match against Italy was a complete failure. And then there is the encounter with Slovenia, which has beaten the Poles more than once in recent years.
By the way, for Slovenians this is the first Olympic Games, but for many it is also the last. This team is quite old. So this is a historic opportunity! Will Gheorghe Cretu’s team use it?
And the top scorer of the Olympic Games also plays in Slovenia:
Slovenian Stern is the top scorer in the group stage of the Olympic volleyball tournament
🥇🤸♂️ 12:45: 2024 Olympics, artistic gymnastics, finals, parallel bars (men), beam (women), horizontal bar (men), floor exercise (women)
Intrigue: Will Biles become champion on the last day?
Simone Biles is already a seven-time Olympic champion. But on the final day of the artistic gymnastics tournament at the Paris Olympics, she will be able to expand her collection. After all, no one in the world has as much difficulty doing floor exercises as she does.

🏐 14:00: Italy – Japan, 2024 Olympic Games, volleyball (men), quarter-finals
Intrigue: Will Japan find its game?
Before the Olympics, the Japanese showed great volleyball in the Nations League and in interviews announced the fight for medals. But so far there are no signs of this: the “samurais” barely made it out of the group, thanks to the fact that the American team did not hold back in one of the games. In the quarterfinals the mission seems almost impossible, Italy is doing well here. But the playoffs are a completely different tournament. Who will be able to overcome the pressure of the quarterfinals?

🏐 18:00: France – Germany, 2024 Olympic Games, volleyball (men), quarter-finals
Intrigue: Will there be another Olympic match in Georg Grotzer’s career?
Germany pulled off a surprise in Paris! The team, which was not considered a playoff contender, entered the field with confidence. Georg Grotzer performs his swansong and does so in style. The match against France could be his last with the national team. Can the German leader extend his Olympic career?
France comes into the match as favourites, but with a slap in the face from Slovenia at the end of the group stage. However, very controversial decisions by the referees clearly hampered Andrea Giani’s team. Maybe this will anger the owners?
Judge Simonovic could become persona non grata in France:
“I’ve never seen anything like it.” The French are unhappy with the refereeing in the match against Slovenia
⚽️ 19:00: Morocco – Spain, 2024 Olympic Games, football (men), quarter-final
Intrigue: Who will keep their chances of winning Olympic gold?
The Moroccans started the tournament with a victory in the match against Argentina (2-1). True, the match itself turned out to be quite scandalous, considering that the last three minutes were played a couple of hours after the supposed end. The Moroccans left the group with six points and then defeated the Americans 4-0. The Spaniards, in turn, took second place in the group, having lost to Egypt (1-2) in the final round. However, this did not prevent the European team from showing itself brilliantly in the quarter-finals – it defeated Japan (3-0).
Details of the Spanish victorious match:

Spain flies towards Olympic gold! But a funny offside from her opponent helped her.
⚽️ 19:00: Arsenal Tula – Enisey, Primera Liga, fourth round
Intrigue: Will Tikhonov stop the leader of the First League?
The Tula club had a great start to the season: three wins in three matches. It is curious that Arsenal has only won 1:0 so far. They consistently beat Chernomorets, KAMAZ and Rotor. It is not surprising that after three rounds Alexander Storozhuk’s team is in first place in the table. What about Yenisei? Andrei Tikhonov’s team started with a victory: they beat KAMAZ at home (2:1). After that, Yenisei did not score a single point. They lost to Sokol (0:1) and Torpedo (0:1).
A week ago, Arsenal won with great difficulty in Volgograd:
Arsenal de Tula finally snatched victory from Rotor in the match of the 3rd round of the First League
⚽️ 20:00: “Spartak” – “Wings of the Soviets”, RPL, 3rd round
Intrigue: Can the Wings break their road losing streak against the Red and White?
Krylia has been playing well against Spartak lately – three wins in four matches. But there is one caveat. The Samara team has not won in Moscow for a long time and has suffered nine defeats in the last nine matches on the red-and-white field. How will it be this time? “Wings” were unsuccessful at the start of the season – three defeats in all competitions. In addition, Igor Osinkin’s team conceded seven goals in two home matches in the RPL. Spartak quickly recovered from the unsuccessful match in Orenburg. They led both Khimki (3-1) in the RPL and Dynamo (3-0) in the Russian Cup. And Manfred Ugalde has already scored more than in the second half of last season.
Who did Spartak acquire this week?
Spartak got stronger, CSKA got weaker. RPL transfers of the week
🥇 🔝🤸♂️ 20:00: Olympic Games 2024, athletics, pole vault (men), final
Intrigue: Duplantis will win. But can he break the world record?
It is simply impossible to imagine a situation in which the Swede Armand Duplantis would not become a two-time Olympic champion in Paris. He has no rivals in the sector, there is only one rival: the bar. And Duplantis intends to set a new world record: 6.25 m. Can he do it?
Duplantis raised the bar to incredible heights:
MY GOD
Is he even human? The great Duplantis achieved a fantastic record on his first attempt!
⚽️ 22:00: France – Egypt, 2024 Olympic Games, football (men), quarter-final
Intrigue: Will the Olympic hosts make it to the final?
The French Olympic team is doing very well at home. Four wins in four matches, not a single goal conceded. In the quarter-finals, the French defeated Argentina (1-0) thanks to an early goal. Egypt had to take penalties to advance to the semi-finals. The main game against Paraguay ended 1-1 and the Africans escaped defeat in the 88th minute. They also scored better penalties afterwards and moved into the top four teams in the tournament. Will Thierry Henry’s team take another step towards gold? Or will we see the Egyptians in the final?
Emotional victory for the French in the quarter-finals:
France took revenge on Argentina for the insults. But it all ended in a new skirmish.
🏐 22:00: USA – Brazil, Olympic Games 2024, volleyball (men), quarterfinals
Intrigue: The main match of the quarter-finals! Which of the two most experienced teams will advance further?
In the quarter-finals, two very experienced teams will face each other. The Americans were good in the group stage, but they relaxed after two sets. This team lacked concentration, but now the responsibility lies elsewhere! The Brazilians looked good, but lost to Poland and Italy; they were lucky that Egypt was in the group. And yet, this is Brazil: this volleyball powerhouse should never be discounted.
And here you can read about the results of the group tournament:
Panic in Poland and anger in France: Who will play in the men’s Olympic volleyball quarter-finals?
🥇🏃♀️ 22:10: 2024 Olympic Games, athletics, women’s 5000m, final
Intrigue: Kipyegon or someone else?
Kenyan Faith Kipyegon is the world’s best middle-distance runner. And this is her first final in Paris. What uniform did Kipyegon wear at the Olympics? Can she win every race she runs? Kenya’s big 5,000m race is underway.
Kipyegon has already broken the world record in Paris:
Track and field athletes broke two world records in one night. Will it be even cooler at the Olympics?
🥇🏃♀️ 22:45: 2024 Olympic Games, Athletics, Women’s 800m, Final
Intrigue: Can Keeley Hodgkinson trade silver for gold?
In the women’s 800m final in Paris, all eyes will be on 22-year-old Keeley Hodgkinson of Great Britain. Three years ago she won a silver medal in Tokyo, but now her goal is only to win. Two weeks before the start of the Olympics, she set a national record at the Diamond League stage in London. Only Jarmila Kratokhvilova, Nadezhda Olizarenko and Caster Semenya ran faster.
Once upon a time, Soviet runners reigned supreme in the 800m:
Don’t miss the curve!
