Talk:David Vanole

Contradiction
Has he appeared 13 or 18 times for the USA? Punkmorten 12:46, 23 January 2007 (UTC)

It's not actually a contradiction, but it was unclear. Up to the 1984 Summer Olympics, athletes at the Olympics were all amateurs. However, just before the 1984 games, the IOC announced that countries (outside Europe and South America) could send their senior national teams even if those teams included professionals. This policy continued with the 1988 games. For the 1992 Summer Olympics, the IOC turned the soccer tournament into an U-23 championship. This was further modified by the inclusion of a certain number, I think it's now 3, of overage players. The confusion comes from FIFA's policy of not counting any Olympic or Olympic qualifying matches as full internationals. So eventhough the U.S. senior national team played at both the 1984, as host, and 1988 Seoul Olympics, the players don't get those matches counted on their resume. Vanole played 18 games for the national team, 5 of them being Olympic related matches. The remaining 13 were counted as full internationals. I rewrote the text to clarify this.(Mohrflies 13:49, 23 January 2007 (UTC))
