Britain has always been the biggest cycling country. Sprinting that is, not on the road. I did expect Theo Bos to take home all the medals though. It's a shame, unbeatable for 5 years, but when it really matters he ****s up...
Same match as the Under 20 WC-final of 2005. First time the world heard of Lionel Messi. I watched that game in the stadium. Hope this match will be as good.
"The IOC relies on the international federations, who are exclusively responsible for the eligibility of athletes. It' s not the task of the IOC to check every one of the 10,000 athletes,'' according to Jacques Rogge.

It shouldn't be the IOC's job to look at every single athlete but if there this type of controversy surrounding a gold medalist then I believe they should look into the matter in the interest of fairness.
