Where is the Russian team? Were they not invited or did they decline to send a team? I would rather see them than a non-European team replacement like Israel. I have nothing against the Israeli team. I'm sure they are excellent.
Aryan Tari's game was a roller-coaster at the end. Nice to see it play out on the camera. "Karaoke… different playlist" lol
