There are only two Olympic team sports where teams eliminated in the quarter-finals play off for fifth place. One is rugby sevens, which finished its programme in Paris in July, and the other is water polo.

Leader Disputed rulings in the quarter-finals He didn't pass without saying a word, and Dóra Leimeter went further. I don't know how many games like this against the Americans, where you have to play under a lot of pressure from the referee.

Unsurprisingly, the US captain ignored the questionable situations that were decided in the US’s favor. Successful blacksmith Adam Krikorian, who has managed the US team since 2009, praised the Hungarians. Above all, he surprised everyone with what he said about Rita Kestelly.
“You wouldn’t think that a match between the US and Hungary would result in so few goals, after all, both national teams have very good shooting. We saw some extra goalkeeping and a lot of good saves. The Hungarian coach has prepared his team excellently, and Rita Kestelly is probably the best player ever,” said the US captain, although one or two of his gold medalists will certainly be in the running for the final title.
