Olympic Dreams Dashed: Bosnia and Herzegovina’s Loss, Poland’s Triumph with Igor Miličić in Gliwice

The Olympic qualification tournament in Gliwice, Poland, came to an end on Sunday with a lot of drama and surprises. Bosnia and Herzegovina, one of the favorites to qualify, was left without a ticket to the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris.

Bosnia and Herzegovina started the tournament strongly, winning their first two matches against Slovenia and Austria. However, they then lost to Poland and Hungary, which put their qualification hopes in jeopardy.

In the final match of the tournament, Bosnia and Herzegovina needed to beat Poland by two goals to qualify. However, they were unable to do so, and Poland won the match 3-2.

The defeat was a bitter blow for Bosnia and Herzegovina, who had been hoping to qualify for the Olympics for the first time since 2012. The team’s coach, Ivica Osim, was particularly disappointed, saying that the result was “a disaster”.

Poland, on the other hand, were celebrating their qualification for the Olympics. The team’s captain, Igor Miličić, was the star of the tournament, scoring six goals in five matches. Miličić said that the qualification was “a dream come true” and that he was “proud to represent Poland”.

The Olympic qualification tournament in Gliwice was a closely contested affair, with all of the teams in contention for a place in the Olympics. In the end, it was Poland who came out on top, but Bosnia and Herzegovina will be disappointed to have missed out.

Here is a more detailed analysis of the tournament:
