I don' t think so that Dragan Nesic makes something strange. In this qualificiation our rivals are low class . Coach wants to see who is in good shape . Also we have good substitutes like Rabadzhieva Nenova Karakasheva and others who also deserve a chance to prove their qualities . Vasileva and Zetova are maybe tired from their season in Italy. I believe that today against Portugal will play all substitutes . It ' s a perfect time for experimentation.

Spain 3-0 Croatia
25-21, 25-16, 25-11

Spain will be in next ECH again!

I hope that now they do not say that they lost through the fault of the referee as in the European championship of Poland

Good luck for the next round.

Romania will be in ECH thanks to a 3-0 victory against Belgium!

Yes, Milagros Collar is just 22 years old. She plays in Playa de las Canteras. She is a MB but she has been playing these games as opposite because Yasmina's injured. She is 188 cm tall and here you can watch her with number 5.

Great for a MB 14 points against Croatia as opposite Any chance to watch her?

Probably in European League, next competition for Spain. We have Spain-Turkey there

Congratulations to Spain. It will be also nice to see Romania in ECh after the break

Congrats to Bulgaria,Spain!
