If we were actually at 100% instead of just sitting at 80%, they would've crushed it within regulation. 😁

I’ve gotta say, I’m getting the vibe that even the Canadians aren't firing on all cylinders right now.
but hey, we'll see how they hold up at the Olympics.
So, if we end up in a group with the Mexicans, what's the play? Do we get stuck in a semi-final rematch against the Canadians—again!—or just face total disaster? It's the same old story.

Man, that goal three seconds before the whistle was brutal. It felt just like that USA-Turkey game. 😢

I can't believe it.
Why? Since when have you been following water polo? We've blown it plenty of times before.

When you blow chances like that... getting scored on in the final seconds is just pure karma.
A totally deserved loss.

I mean, I honestly called it—that foul on the attack was going to be called just five seconds in. 🙄 And then that lucky goal from the Canadians... we just had zero luck, and honestly, maybe we lacked the clinical edge to finish off a team that was already struggling halfway through the match. But hey, that’s how it goes. When things get critical, everyone starts pointing fingers instead of stepping up, and even when someone does take a shot, it’s usually some desperate attempt from a half-chance.
Still, I’m an optimist at heart. I really believe things will turn around by the time we hit the Olympics (maybe I’m just delusional, but whatever) 🙂

There's no way a ref calls that last play. He was just sitting there practically begging to blow the whistle, what a joke.

Ozzie went way too far, but honestly, that Greek guy’s officiating was just a total disaster.
