Boxer Cristian Javier Pinales defeated his Thai opponent Jongjoho Weerapon (0-5) to secure a spot in the round of 16. His next match is scheduled for this Tuesday, 30 July.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Dominican men&#8217;s football team, ranked 150th by FIFA, played its second game in an Olympic Games against Spain and turned in a 3-1 loss. Spain is ranked 3rd in the world by the soccer ruling body. The DR in its debut game in an Olympic Games had tied with Egypt (61st) 0-0. The DR will now play Uzbekistan on 30 July. A win against that team would give the DR a chance to advance to the quarterfinals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Gymnast Audrys Nin Reyes, the Dominican flag bearer, competed in artistic gymnastics on 27 July yet failed to move on to a second round in his respective events.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In volleyball, the Dominican Republic senior women\u2019s team (ranked 11th in the wolrd) lost in four sets (25-10, 24-27, 25-21, 25-19) to Italy (ranked second in the world). The bad news, nevertheless, was that key player Lisvel Eve Mej\u00eda (la China), tested positive to a doping test. This removes her from the Olympic Games.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Dominican Republic has officially registered a team of 57 athletes across 13 sports to compete in the 33rd Olympic Games, scheduled for July 26 to August 11 in Paris, France.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Read more in Spanish:<br><a previewlistener=\"true\" href=\"https:\/\/colimdo.org\/noticias\/onceno-rd-pierde-ante-espana-en-torneo-futbol-juegos-olimpicos\/\">Colimdo <\/a><br><a previewlistener=\"true\" href=\"https:\/\/colimdo.org\/noticias\/las-reinas-caen-en-cuatro-sets-ante-italia-en-olimpiadas-paris\/\">Colimdo <\/a><br><a previewlistener=\"true\" href=\"https:\/\/olympics.com\/en\/paris-2024\/live-updates\/6648c52c-db7b-4698-ab5e-8276146c46bb\">Olympics <\/a><br><a previewlistener=\"true\" href=\"https:\/\/colimdo.org\/noticias\/cristian-pinales-avanza-a-octavos-de-final-tras-vencer-a-tailandes\/\">Colimdo <\/a><br><a previewlistener=\"true\" href=\"https:\/\/colimdo.org\/noticias\/voleibolista-eve-mejia-falla-en-control-de-dopaje-juegos-olimpicos\/\">Colimdo <\/a><br><a previewlistener=\"true\" href=\"https:\/\/colimdo.org\/noticias\/delegacion-desfila-en-vistosa-ceremonia-juegos-olimpicos-de-paris\/\">Colimdo <\/a><br><a href=\"https:\/\/noticiassin.com\/resumen-de-la-participacion-dominicana-en-los-juegos-olimpicos-de-paris-2024-1689332\/\">Noticias SIN <\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>29 July 2024<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Dominican Republic has made a promising start at the Paris 2024 Olympic Games.
