Incredible that they could boss vault so conclusively even without Bican. If she did nothing else, compulsory and optional vault from her would've almost certainly got them the silver.
Losing both Bican and Presecan shortly before the games definitely knocked them down in the standings, assuming everyone would hit to at least the same degree as they did in Atlanta.
 
I can't even remember all the Romanian injuries in 96.

The Sabae team was Milo, Gogean, Amanar, Marinescu, Cacovan, Hatagan and Presacan. I know Presacan was on the preferred team and got injured late- was it Loaies that replaced her? Cacovean was at Euros in May, but didn't compete in the team final iirc. Same with Bican, but that makes a bit more sense as her events were VT/FX and in 3 up 3 count Romania didn't need any help there. What about Hategan?

Yeah. Bican and Cacovan were on the team of 5 but in the team event only three went up and Belu have Amanar, Gogean, and Milo compete all around so Bican and Cacovan were benched.

Lyapina was listed for Russia but Galieva, Khorkina, and Kotchekova all did all around.

The 3 up 3 count was brutal for Spain as Elizabeth Valle injured herself on floor and scored 1.200 which dropped Spain out of the bronze medal hunt.

The format for 96 Euros is confusing me. Was there actually a qualification/prelims event at all?

The AA qualification results listed below are from the team event on the 17th.


And that's what the BBC televised. Does this mean Bican, Cacovean and Liapina didn't compete at all? The dates are listed as 16th to 19th May but 16th was probably the juniors.
