Marko Podrascanin gave an interview for this magazine and he said something interesting:
"There's nothing better to watch than top level women's volleyball. At the same time, there's nothing more boring to watch than bad women's volleyball."

I must say I agree.

I think he is correct indeed.

Joana, do u mind telling a bit of what Maja says in her interview....if it wont give u work of course!

No problem!
First she's talking about her beginnings in volleyball, in Postar Zrenjanin. She started playing when she was about 8 years old. She has very fond memories of that period. Later when she went to Crvena Zvezda it was different, because even though she was young, she was already a professional at that time.
So the journalist mentions the success the national team has had, and Maja says that in order to achieve all that, it's necessary to have a lot of persistence, hard work and inner drive, but they also had to sacrifice a lot of things that are normal for young people.
Then they ask her about her boyfriend, Milos Teodosic. She says that it's much easier to date another athlete, because they can understand each other more and know what the other one is going through and what he or she feels. She says that she and Milos have a very special connection.
In the end she says that volleyball brought her and the other girls fame and popularity, but even more important is that it made them more mature and helped them to become better people.

Suzana Cebic also talked about her beginnings in volleyball, she started playing because her older sister played volleyball too. At first she did it just for fun, but then she got more serious about it when she started high school. Her goal was to get to NT and play in a stronger league, and she accomplished it, but she also has some more dreams, like winning an Olympic medal. She says that playing on NT and representing your country is an amazing feeling and that she's looking forward to playing EC in front of her own crowd. On court, she feels best when she makes a difficult dig, it lifts her spirits and also lifts the rest of the team. In her spare time she enjoys being outdoors in nature.

In the next segment, Terzic is analyzing Serbian opponents in the group stage. He doesn't think France should be a big problem, especially since some very good players are no longer on the team. According to him, Ukraine has a lot of very good players, but they somehow can't produce good results and he does not know why that's so. Finally, he believes Germany is the toughest rival, especially because they beat Serbia several times in big competitions, so they "owe" us. He says they have an excellent starting line-up, but that the rest of the players are not as strong. Suzana Cebic has somewhat different opinion, she says that in the German squad only Kozuch and Furst really stand out, but that Germany plays as a team and that's why it can be difficult to beat them.

Francesca Piccinini gave an interview for the latest edition of the magazine. She says that Italy is going for the gold at the EC. She talked about her career, that her biggest success are the champion titles with Bergamo and the biggest disappointment is the loss to USA in Beijing. When she first started playing volleyball she hated learning how to block, because she only wanted to spike. Her idol was Ana Moser and she thinks that Mireya Luis is the best player in history.
About her beauty, she says it doesn't have anything to do with volleyball and her success. In her own words, "My beauty didn't win me any medals".
