lets see how the today's matches will be concluded
the matches i wonder how they' will end are :
Bul-Ukr : lets see if Ukraine team is really that good or not ?
Cze - Bel : i guess Bel will win but it could be a close match
Ser - Ned : two good teams will face each other.whether Ned will finally beat Serbia or not? the former lacks good setters the latter lacks its bets MB
Tur - Rus :Turkey cant beat Russia in ECH for a few years..lets see if this time Turkey will land on both its feet?

I'm unlucky, the – imho – most interesting matches are practically at the same hour (20.00 and 20.30 local), which happen to be also the time of the Italian match (20.00) 
Why is Hanna Orthmann not in NT?

Good question. She wasn't really great in the last league season but she's a talent we need to develop. My guess is that she needed the summer off to prevent herself from too much exhaustion and also too much pressure. It's not easy to be considered a big talent...

Even if she wasn't great this year, she can't be worse than these miserable OH/OPP Germany has now. This is the right time for Germany to try out new solutions and new young players, since good results can't be achieved anyway.
Lol the challenge system though.
Ball In/Out = No
Ukraine is playing really good.. reliable attacks from Kodola, Chernuchka and Trushkina, while Bulgaria is struggling too much in reception and can't get over Ukraine's defense!
Bulgaria has a good setter. Ukraine has a good libero.
Such sad irony. Both of these teams can be really good if they only have the player the other team got.

They've lost their best chance in the first set that they've narrowly lost. Things are more complex for them now as they get out of steam - tired after y-day's five-setter, I bet.

I agree completely. Ukraine is really surprising me this ECH though still. On the other side especcially Bulgarian libero has been really horrible throughout the match. Maybe they can develop the missing piece of the cake though next few years. *crossing finger*
It looks like is gonna be a tie break between Bulgaria and Ukraine... But as always never say never in volleyball 
Tiebreak party! (what an easy set by BUL)
How many attack errors in a row for Ukraine

There was a weird situation yesterday when the video replay showed that Bošković's serve had clearly caught the line, but the referees still decided it's out. Serbia was leading comfortably at the time, so it wasn't really a big deal, but imagine if something like this happens at 13-13 in the 5th set. 
I really don't remember a tiebreak going 11-2, ever

Horror party for Ukraine so far...

Yea that can become a big problem. Let's hope it doesn't happen often is all I can say sadly... I just don't understand why volleyball challenge system is so bad though. They should make line just like it is in tennis. I think they tried something like that not so long ago but whole thing was a fail ofc. What is the point of challenges if it is like this 
Btw Ukraine definitely out of steam today...
Bad decision by the Ukrainian trainer to sub Stepaniuk so quickly. Both players replacing her did a worse job with more errors than gains.
Meanwhile, it is pretty interesting that all 3 slavic teams in group C have terrible setters while they have pretty good wing attackers and tall blocks. It would make a big difference for any of these 3 teams to have a slightly more decent setter.
