2014 FIVB World Championship - Poland - 8/30

  • can someone tell me why ciarelli is still listed as 183 cm (6 ft) tall when he doesn't look much shorter than his teammates? that's the height of the libero, shoji, and ciarelli certainly looks a bit taller.


    On the official Team USA's pages, or at least those with probably more accurate physical data, he is 198 cm (6-6 according to the American foot system). So I think you are right.

  • 1st head shot fired by Sander to Ghafour ouch

  • Where can I find quality stream of USA x IRN like weeb.tv ?

  • Iran is on rising wave 8o

    2nd set : iran 25 USA 19

  • Tashakori in the comic books :D Iran with a superb performance so far, they need some more focus after the commericial break now and they will have a sweet revenge over USA. As for what is going on in Wroclaw, Uriarte might be a good and precise setter, but Argentina can only be a classy team with De Cecco, sorry guys. It's been a long discussion regarding Uriarte vs. De Cecco, but I am still in favour of the latter, no matter what his shape is. They are a different team, but still not as good as the one they had with Weber. Velasco is in for a lot of work.

  • OFF TOPIC guys. just can't resist it.


    i'm falling in love with marouf. he's like a river to me who runs beautifully deep and composed. seyeed has a new haircut. he looks weird in a nice way. :lol: :love: :love:

  • Splendid performance from Iran again 8o They're so focused and fearless, love them so much. Keep up the good work guys, one more set!

  • I hope Tashakkori didn't injure himself with that :D


    4pts from USA and Italy (we were hopeless against both last month) is already a great result. anything more will be a big bonus.

  • They're so focused and fearless,


    Thats exactly my impression already from their first match. They are not "freaking out" like little children any more, when they score a point. Very determined. Controlled emotions might help them in the end game of sets or to stay focussed in bad moments of the game. But lts see how this game will end 8)
