You could make one from each match...
congrats!
I love to working with Photoshop when I have time. 
It takes a long time for such a banner / photo. 
It is sometimes hard, if you make a mistake and have to start over but I'll try to make more banners, if I have time. 
Thanks again.

Thanks again.
I imagined how much work is, I'm absolutely the worse working with photoshops, I already try sometimes, but I definelty dont have the skill to do so..hehehehehehehe but thanks for this one 
The blocking of Russia is crazy. 17 points in only 3 sets. 
3 - 0 against Serbia. Go Go Go Russia!
Buff, it's difficult describe how Serbia was thrashed by Russia tonight. Trzic must resign from national team coach yesterday better than tomorrow
I think they have the mentality to always lose when playing against Russia. Maybe that's why they simply cannot execute their game.
Wow, the spiking efficiency of Russia is 68.42% .... 
I think they have the mentality to always lose when playing against Russia.
With Russia playing so well, I think many teams will have this mentality.
I haven't seen statistics but I would bet Kosheleva had more than that 68% in spiking efficiency of the team. She was unstoppable to Serbia.

Maybe you're right, but Serbia didn't show any fight spirit in this match. They let Russian hammered them and they didn`t show proud or instint to fight and the defeat wasn't so humiliating at least
The three players of Russia had efficiency higher than 60%. Kosheleva was around 70%, 10 out of 14.
I was wondering if Borodakova was there and not Merkulova, the block would have reached 20 or so with the blocking skills of Borodakova.
By my estimates from the FIVB stats of serve receive, digging, service aces, spikes (not from sets), blocks and block rebounds, and opponent faults (spike not blocked, service error, setting error and others (4 hits), Russia had 125 possessions and with 75 points scored, an incredible 60% of the time. Taking out the opponent errors of 16 errors, it comes to 59 points in 109 possessions (54.12%).
Serbia was at 115 possessions with 39 points scored, 33.91%. Taking out the opponent errors of 8 errors, it comes to 31 points in 107 possessions (28.97%)
Russia hammered Serbia. The match was more onesided, than RUS-POL. If we beat China today, we will still have a chance for a good place. If...
God, Polish girls are breaking my heart again.
If they lose to China will they play for 5-8?
Because I don't want to talk about semis.
I got impression that Poland girls spent too much energy yesterday trying to win the third set in the game with Russia.
Not very smart. Instead of trying to win the useless set, they should save energy against China.
Display MoreThailand played extremely good. They definitely were on courage, because, I guess, they already lost chances to get high enough on this tournament. Holland just apperared in bad time to get smashed. After Dutch girls believed, that Thailand really can play that good, they started to fight on their normal level. And the fourth set was lost only because of their usual problem - loss of confidence in a decisive moments. If I remember it correctly, Holland was 3 points ahead at the end of the 4th set.
When did they played the first time?
If you watched two more sets, you would see, that Chaine Staelens outpowered the whole Thailand's team. Unfortunately, it didn't help.
In overal, the Dutch attack had better effectiveness.
Holland can also play like that. In the matches after losing every hope to win the tournament
Well, honestly, I'm heavily dissapointed with this game. Not even with the gameplay of the team, but with the result. I think, objectively, this group wasn't too hard for the Dutches. Winning over Cuba, Thailand, USA and Germany surely can't be named "mission impossible". And then, with a little luck, they could get into the semi-final. That was the plan. And this plan being ruined by Thailand?!... Come on, girls! You're experienced enough already. Time had come to say "f*ck it all" and start playing at full power, no matter how hugely important the match is!
Yeah I agree with all of that. You'd think they'd have enough experience by now, but I guess not. Oh yeah perhaps the other match I watch them play was in Grand Prix not WCH? Yeah I checked, it was GRand Prix, they quite easily beat them then. But anyway, I guesswe have to conclude that (like the mens team) they siply do not have enough quality at this point.
Terrible, terrible. Lack of defence organisation, weakness in attack. Everything go on out! No cooperation between setter and MBs. Totally unprepared to WCH, althaugh the team has potential. Next lost chance. Poland cannot play with China...
Poland lost to China 3:0. Now - only places 9-12 are possible, I think. Our team lack class players. How many of them do we have? Glinka, Barańska, Zenik... And that's all. Not too much. I mean REAL class players. Not somebody who plays once very well, and another time very bad (Kaczor, Bednarek, Sadurek etc.). With this squad we can't dream about medals in WCh (ECh are something different in female volleyball).
I think level of this Championships are very very low. 8 points in one set? Germany, Serbia, Italy? In 2nd round? These are the worst tournament in history of FIVB.
Wow, Russia just destroyed Serbia. I haven't expected this result at all. It seems Serbia can't play morning matches, they are still in beds, dreaming.
Btw, during this match Russian commentator told about overall teams rankings in different elements. He said that Russia is no 1 of all teams in attack and in serve (although there are not many Russians in top servers list) and Serbia is no 1 in block and during the match Russia-Poland he told that he is amazed by the improvement of Russia defense and that after the match with Peru Russia was on the 2nd place in defense after Germany. Do you guys know where I can see overall teams stats?
close 1st set between Japan and Korea, the USA-Netherlands 2nd set is close and exciting as well
