Please just watch a waterpolo game. Its such a freaking great sport and its so underrated. Moved from hungary to sweden and literally nobody plays here... Id be happier if it was the hungarian womens team that got three golds in a row but even if its the US its a huge achievement. Im actually happy that the french put together a great team because the youth in france can see this amazing sport. Tho that loss in Doha hurt...

All right, your enthusiasm has convinced me. I don't know anything about water polo, but I'll look up a game on YouTube. Time to broaden my horizons!

Ah, so it's basically soccer, using hands instead of feet, while swimming. Looks like it would be a fun casual sport to play with friends and family (but in a much smaller pool lol).

As someone who used to play WP, stopped in high school and after 6 years met with some old teammates to play one „casual“ game…twas very exhausting and not much fun
