Quote from gawjus69

Because Borodakova was there

Quote from semisonic

Because they lost to USA and Brazil, no shame in that. AS it turned out, that was for the better.

and other legs and teams?

Quote from semisonic

Del Core had a very strong season in Russia. I think her level is higher than Costagrande's now.

Has always been

Lina is amazing player.

Quote from Matthias

I remember less than a weak ago, some people said it would be better for Turkey to face Russia rather than Croatia in QF and I said all along that Russia has the potential to reach the final

However, Serbian performance today was even worse than in London when half of the team was out injured I don't know what happened to them, they never really arrived in the match...

we failed against Germany and that failure cost us a medal..its Barbolini's biggest fault...that match should have been main target with right attitude and motivation and we should have won that match with any results in favor of us..

Quote from Canter

and other legs and teams?

They have won all the other games, but 3-2 against Poland and Germany, I think. It's not the point really. In WGP Russia was trying to duplicate man's style of play and it was a mistake, the game was far more predictable, had more limits in it. So no good results were achieved. Now Russia has better tactics and with reception being better and instead of hole in the center of the net we have wonderfully playing Morozova, so team got stronger from WGP. It shows.

I don't really understand your smile. What's so funny about 3-2 against Poland? It's not Algeria. Kasja Skowronska was just a wonderwoman that weekend in Campinas, scoring more than 40 points against Russia. Does it deserves a smile? Have you given a lot of these for Turkish team results this summer?
Matienko was the main setter.

hey its not a smile its "gone" just surprised at that result..i wonder why triple russian blocks didnt work in that match? maybe matienko and Borodokova could have been main reasons for the loss i dont know i hadnt watched that match.

Guidetti thinks he is Karch going and greeting the 2 players who are not on court..

i want to watch a real challenge come on Belgium make it hard for Germany!

You got an answer and it's not a joke I think - Borodakova was there. She's fat and slow - how can you build a good triple block with that kind of MB? Getting her out of the team really helped. Also I have very big respect of Skowronska and if she's on fire - you can barely do something about her, I think.

What a defense Maren!

i thought Borodokova had been alway a good blocker?

And Belgium deliver

i wonder why isnt anybody talking about line referees unlike the matches in Turkey ?

Quote from MattGTFour

And Belgium deliver

belgium are a very very good team.. I haven;t watched them much but they impressed me so far.. I want a 5 set match.. I don't know who I wanna see win, maybe Germany so tomorrow's final will be a better one.. they have better chances against Russia

Aelbrecht is so provocative.
