I hope you guys aren't offended by this French team I mean they have a Spanish, Ukranian, Polish, Croatian, and a Norwegian born player on the roster!!

In this tournament they aren't in roster, but they are:
polish roots: Anna Rybaczewski
croatian roots: Jelena Lozancic
about spanish I don't know
Jelena Lozancic is not Croatian she is Serbian, her father and mother are Serbs, she was born in Zagreb Croatia but she is Serbian!
Does anyone have real stats for Azerbaijan-Bulgaria? (not fake stats on cev.lu)

Best scorer: Lonneke Sloetjes, 16 points
Stam played a great match
I hope someone can record today's match between Netherlands and Croatia on laola, because I won't have time to watch it live.
Question: If Germany and Italy qualify for the the OG at the WC, do they simply not partake in the European Continental Championships without their spots being replaced, or do two other teams get to take part in the tournament?

As far as I know, the best 2nd ranked teams from Pre-Qualifier will get the spots of the teams which qualify via World Cup. I don't know though what is the criteria for "best 2nd ranked", might be result of the final match of the tournaments, overall results of the tournaments or maybe even World Ranking...
As expected, Russia won their tournament, but Romania managed to take a set from them in final. Very good attack statistics for Sokolova, Gamova and Kosheleva in the final, but Perepelkina 0/10 
CRO - NED is at 19.00 according to cev so there's a mistake on laola

yes, early
Lonneke is so impressive!!! I really like!!!
Yeah, absolutely great! But Axel has to work with her on serving when she is back in Münster 
Hrvatska !! 
congratulations and good luck in Istanbul girls !
Congratulations to Croatia 
Wow, this is a HUGE blow
I think for the girls the world once again - after Selinger's departure - breaks down....
I expect Huurman, Visser, Blom (van Tienen, Staelens-sisters) to retire...
Wow, what a disappointment....
Congratulations to Croatia. What an exciting 5th set!
Really a shame that Sloetjes made the last mistake after such a great performance 
I really hope Dutch girls can be in Qualification tournament anyway if Italy and maybe Germany qualify in World Cup.
What a tough loss for the Netherlands. In the middle of the 5th set they really looked like they were in control and were going to be able to take the match. Credit Kim Staelens for coming into the match and being able to turn the momentum around. Sloetjes had a fantastic match and I doubt Flier's presence would've made much difference. Is there a possibility that they may be invited to the Continental Tournament if Germany and Italy both qualify at the WC? I don't know why but I've always had a soft spot for the Dutch. They play as a team and they're never disrespectful to their opponents, those two qualities always win me over.
Congrats to Croatia! I really thought they were going to let the match slip away in the 5th. Hopefully, their Federation will put in the money and time to get this team the things it needs from now until the qualification tournament. I'd love to see Poljak come back and I've given up on Osmokrovic coming back but you never know if the Olympic bug will bite come next year.
Im sorry for you,Flyingdutchman.
Congrats Croatia.
Btw,Dutch Slötje(?) played a good match.
