that usa team was so trash
nigga we only had 1 (one) NBA player, our team was waaaaay worse
you already had multiple ring winners
>a decade ago we used to have 10 players in the tennis top 40
You didn't have a davis cup a decade ago though
because too many good players and a huge ego battle, most of these players hated each other
we won the davis cup last year without a single top 100 player kek
Del Potro is a top player when he's uninjured though, regardless of his ranking
when did you beat the US Basketball team?
We kicked them out from the semis didn't we?
Athens Olympics m8...
damn nice. memories have left me.
WC 2002 and Olympics 2004
>you now remember that epic choke job by gaudio at the FO

>2 argies in roland garros final
this shit will never hapen again
Feels bad man
looks like olympics but what sport?
you had 4 NBA players and one of them is the goat foreign NBA player and you guys had a pretty good coach
JUST
And your country is literally burning to the ground.
How do you even cope with losing the lottery of life, that is, being born in Great Britain?
Football Euros, we smash the Olympics compared to other nations that aren't China Russia USA
>you had 4 NBA players
No, only young Ginobili from NBA, one from the Argentine league and the rest from European leagues

England isn't in the olympics
>is literally burning to the ground.
We aren't portugal
what does "most appearances in finals without ever finishing in the to two" mean then? only 2 teams can reach the final in the euros
How do you appear in the finals but not finish in the top two? What sport is that?
Finals meaning the actual tournament
Remember we have to qualify for it rather than just handing out passes like sweets
>we have to qualify
against teams like san marino, vatican city and faroe islands
wow, it's not like always the same teams qualify anyways
Granted now it is piss easy with 3rd place teams in qualifying making it in but in years gone by it was a challenge when it was only 4 or 8 teams there
24 out of 53 (or 54 or 55 or whatever it is now with Kosovo, ezc.) shouldn't be a big problem
