How the heck is it in any way legal for these two guys from Senegal and Brazil to play for Qatar? If I was some insanely rich sheik I'd win at everything.

In the video, he falls, looks up at his leg which is clearly facing the wrong direction, and does a literal "facepalm". No screaming in agony, just a facepalm. It's the oddest (toughest?) reaction

Incredible fencing match. American was down 7-13 (first to 15 wins), and he came back to win 15-14 over an Italian to advance. Good stuff.
