OS Beijing 2008 Paralympics Olympics Pekin

The world champion Clemente Russo was beaten earlier today in the final game with Russia’s Rakhim. Final score 4-2, it was a game of tension and heavy weights for the fighters, yet superb for the crowds to enjoy. Sports betting sites were registering a considerable advantage for the Italian, but Rakhim turned around all the odds and earned the gold medal.

Chakhkiev, who knew that it was going to be a close game, was betting on this Olympic Games to revenge his lost game in AIBA championship by a single point! Gladly for him, his bid got thumbs up; he is the gold medalist of Beijing’s games.

Absolutely brilliant game for the USA basketball jerseys in offense and defense, Americans were seizing control since the 2^nd quarter of the match, after trailing 13-10 in the 1^st shift.

While all were bidding on a close and intense game, Women NBA girls hushed all odds and suspicious sports news about the effectiveness against strong teams, and cruised with a score average of 27 points, to look like a winning bet for wearing gold!

USA has beaten Australia in 3 finals in 3 Olympics

Opals totally lost control in 2nd quarter, making turnovers and being out-rebounded while the score average was going uphill from 11 to 27 at the ending.

Stats show that US women’s average of field goals reached 63% in face of Opals’ 22%, a crystal clear image that shows how the Americans were better in the game, compared to the Aussies.

4 players were fouled out in the last quarter, 2 of each team including Lisa Leslie (USA) and Lauren Jackson (Australia).

USA just won 33 games in a row, unbeatable since the loss in Barcelona’s 1992.

Kara Lawson headed the US’ score sheet with 15 points, aside of Candace Parker’s 14; Australia-wise, Lauren Jackson made 20 points.

In the end, Lisa leslie and the rest of the team earned the gold medal, after an enthusiastic game apparently easy. Leslie declared that her Olympic’s participation is over for good, gladly on top of her performance and achievements.

Lisa Leslie and Teresa Edwards are the only basketball players to win 4 Olympic gold medals

James DeGale’s Britain cherished boxing player. After beating 2004’s Olympic champion Artayev, it was clear that James is a winning bet.

Highly provoked and motivated by phone calls and messages from his home land, he insisted on beating all odds and bring back gold.

Emilio Correa’s father is gold medalist in Munich Olympics in 1972

After irritating his opponents on TV and in Sports news that boxing is easy, Correa had something to say; he said it all, bringing the best of both players in a marathon game of 16-14, a score that most of all demonstrates the will to win gold. In the end James DeGale’s voice came out loud, settling the game in his favor and earning the golden medal.

James DeGale’s gold medal is the 2^nd in Britain’s history. 1^st gold was gained by Audley Harrison in Sydney’s 2000.

The game was more like a marathon, with both players unwilling to loose it up for the other. 10-12 at the end, a hard luck for the French Alexis Vastine who really deserved to play for gold too, but it’s always about the best! Dominican Republic’s hope is so close to set a win in Olympics with 1 step further to over-come: fighting Manus Boonjummong. The Thai has already won over Rosiel Iglesias, while the Cuban couldn’t do much! A 10-5 game sent Cuba’s bets away.

Sports betting sites are all about the Dominican Republic and Thailand; both odds seem to be in close proximity one to another on the way to wear a gold medal.

Rainy day in Beijing and a very wet grass to play on, as Japan and Germany play for bronze medal in football. The 1^st half witnessed 4 major Japanese occasions but none of them found the back of the net. Japs clearly bidding on an early opening to struck the Deutschland’s ego turned into a losing bet; German goal keeper, Nadine, made a terrific job in saving all 4 Geishas’ attempts, especially a long range shot and a ball off the line with the help of her defenders. On the break, the score was 0 to 0 as crowds were expecting a different type and style of playing after watching 45 minutes of ball movement in midfield, filled with a lack of ball control and strategies.

The 2^nd half was all about setting the German rules! 3 early substitutes launched the German machine in face of the tired Asians who gave it all in the1^st part. Substitute Fatmire Bajramaj was behind the big bang of the match placing the ball into the red dot’s web in the 67^th minute putting Germany in the lead.

Germany’s medal in Beijing’s games is the 3^rd successive bronze in 3 Olympics

Japan’s trials to equalize came to a complete failure; Bajramaj skillfully scored again in the 87^th minute, killing any Asian’s odds and leaving no room for Japan on the podium. A 2^nd half totally different from the 1^st sent Geishas back home with no medals.

India’s fighters Vijender (75) and Jitender Kumar (51kg) can write history! Since the beginning of Olympics, India has failed to get so far, while those 2 national heroes can hit expectations and roll over the odds. Their bid is on winning matches in quarter finals.

Vijender will face Carlos Gongora from Ecuador in a chance to qualify into the semi-finals.

It seems that Yao Ming’s suffering from Chinese sports news will not be over soon, blaming the NBA center of Houston Rockets and pointing at him as a disappointing out-performer.

Chinese Nation betting on Yao’s domination under the opponent’s baskets was surprised to see their local team struggle to go through into the quarter finals, after a very bad show in the 1^st round.

Lithuania, leader of group A in preliminaries and a favorite of playing the final game didn’t have much difficulty during the 40 minutes. The European team eased itself by taking the lead since the beginning, growing a difference of 9 points at the break, and increasing it to 26 dots within the final whistle while sending the Dragons out of the tournament.

Beijing’s semi-final is Lithuania’s 5^th final 4

In a row

3rd quarter was the game’s turning point as they broke free scoring and taking advantage of 2^nd chances while the Chinese defense was unorganized at all. Despite Yao’s 19 points and 7 boards, Lithuania’s team-play on offense was bringing down the China wall of giants, not to mention the long range shots of Sarunas rimming in  5 out of 6 and leading the scoring sheet by 23.

Downtown attempts:

Lithuania averaged 42% (13/31)

China averaged 19% (4/21)

2 points trials:

66% for Lithuania

47% for China

Lithuania’s triumph today, settles a European semi-final against Spain. Spanish line up is trying to preserve its image of world champions what makes the game promising and intense. Sports news in Spain are putting a lot of pressure on their national team, that earlier in preliminaries was facing severe critics due to their humiliating loss against the USA. Lithuania’s bid will be on stopping Pau’s domination, as a key to winning while the Spaniards’ concern will be the coverage of their 3 points lane.

Odds and expectations are wide open with both teams capable of creating “bolt from the blue” and playing for Beijing’s gold! Basketball tickets are on the way of being sold out, while some grapevines mentionned black marketing!

Captain Miao was unstoppable, pulling 28 points in a game high, where Belarus was beaten. The White Russia’s dream is now over, and the march is halted toward the semi-finals.

At the final whistle, it was 77-62, a game score in which China’s dominance was ruling all along the game especially after out-rebounding the ladies of Belarus.

As some sports news talked about it as a bombshell result beating all odds, some mentioned that China’s victory was a winning bet against their European opponents, taking the groups standing as a backbone for their analysis.

Dragon nation’s last medal (silver) in women’s basketball was earned back in 1992 in Barcelona after losing the final game in favor of the Soviet Union.

China will more likely mug the Aussies in semi-final, if the Kangaroo ladies over-come New Zealand. That definitely is a gamble that I’m willing to make on sport betting sites; you can’t deny the glorious performance of the Opals who are bidding on a final game against USA.

China’s fans are counting on a shocker that could pull their nation into the finals; they just need to beat a “favorite to win” in women’s basketball in Beijing

Asian giant Zhang guaranteed a medal for China after beating all expected odds, against Ruslan Myrsatayev of Kazakhstan, out scoring him by 12-2. The Chinese, who had a slight advantage of 6 inches of height, cherished the crowds that were as happy as their local’s dominance over his opponent.

Ruslan’s coach who was furious after the game, accused the judges of dishonesty and counting in favor of the local player declaring that Zhang wouldn’t match Ruslan outside of China! Amri added that his player played against 6: 1 opponent and 5 umpires.

He held TV sets and sports news responsibility of being the bystander of what happened during the game.

The Chinese big guy will next play the world silver medalist, Vyacheslav Glazkov in a game that’s much anticipated by fans and betting sites.

Notice that boxing and wrestling are both facing massive objections from foreign teams, all complaining from bad moderation.

This doesn’t upset only the fans, but is also affecting the sports betting, putting China’s good image in the Olympics into questioning!
