Yep, a lot of sleepless nights for me coming up!

[arvin_guzoo]

Navid you are my hero! Thank you for this!

BTW how do our medal chances look? Aside from Yazdani anyone else expected for gold?

[AIrani]

I expect ten medals in both Weightlifting and two wrestling categories.

Our wrestlers are some of the greatest in the world. Coaching staff is also great.

Iran will be ranked in top 20 among all countries in medal count.

Go Iran, make us proud.

[oracle]

3 gold overall is my expectation
7 overall medals

If we do 5 gold
And 10 overall medal
It be great

[Babak500]

@kateb,

would your expectation be Yazdani? And who else you have in mind?

Thanks, was looking for this, unbelievable how hard it can be to find full schedule for a nation...

[Abtin]

LOOL on Sunday, Kimia Alizadeh is going up against an Iranian, wonder how that will turn out?

[Adesor Vafaseya]

I expect ten medals in both Weightlifting and two wrestling categories. :

impossible!

We have only two weightlifters participating in olympics. Assuming both get medals each, which is doubtful, then you expect 8 medals in wrestling, both freestyle and greco roman. We have 5 greco wrestlers and 6 freestyle wrestlers. So out of 11 you expect 8 medals. If that happens, than that would be the best wrestling/weightlifting for Iran or any other nation in the history of olympics ever!

Sure, mathematically is possible, but if you have followed Iranian sports recently, injuries, coaching changes etc… this olympics can be one of the bad one’s we participated.


I expect three medals in total for all sports maximum.

[Abtin]

I expect three medals in total for all sports maximum.

That's sad.....

[Iran_19]

Why we have only 2 in weightlifting?

[PSGman#19]

I read we will have only 25 people in the opening ceremony (out of 66 athletes, biggest squad since revolution). What a shame.

[Babak500]

I read we will have only 25 people in the opening ceremony (out of 66 athletes, biggest squad since revolution). What a shame.

because of corona rules by japan?
