2018 FIVB Volleyball Women's Nations League

  • I think Bellen is Netherland's most complete MB, can hit the slide AND in front of the setter, has a somewhat good serve, and most importantly she knows how to block something Robin de Kruiff is lacking in this element :teach:

  • We got a tie break with NED v SER


    But the POL v BEL is more entertaining for me. I like the way both these teams play.


    I'm torn :cheesy:

  • second setter of Korea is cute


    She's the lefty of the Lee sisters. #17 and #19. She just looks better than her sister because she has a better hairdo

  • NED's #2 replacement setter is doing a fine job

  • Bellen is keeping the Dutch afloat in the tiebreak :white:

    I'll eat some crow. I've written I didn't think I'd ever seen Bellen score a point (liked her blocking, tho). She's playing fabulously. That last shot down the line was done with authority

  • NED is so lucky they have Plak as backup if Sloetjes is having a bad day, how many top teams have that luxury in the OPP position no less


    EDIT: And even the setter position too! :lol:

    NED is the deepest team in this tournament, imo. I like that. They are doing this without De Kruije or Daaderlop

  • How many times Bellen has blocked Boskovic today :obey:

  • Stop with the service errors!

  • And the Dutchies wins!


    MVP of the match: Yvonne Bellen


    Oops match not yet over spoke too soon :lol:

  • I don't even know who #7 is on NED but she's made a few crucial plays down the stretch

  • That was great! A mirror of the THA v JPN game earlier, coming back from 2-0 and going to over time.


    Congrats NED!

  • What a fight from the dutchies!!! Verry good game by Belien :box:
    Plak and stoltenborg turnt the match when they came in. Also credits to Lohuis! Almost no experiens and blocks Boskovic a couple of times.
