Guidetti has done very much good for this Dutch team and without him they wouldn't be in Rio at all, but today he made a lot of critical mistakes:
- starting with Plak
- replacing Pietersen with Plak
- keeping Stoltenborg on court way too long
- forgetting to replace Buijs with Schoot in the end of 3rd set
- wasting both his challenges in 4th set very earlyStill the Dutch can be proud of their tournament, and congrats to USA for Bronze!

Noone but Guidetti to blame for this loss unfortunately. He, once again lost to his ego, trying to show that he is an excellent trainer by making surprising decisions. Not sure what he finds in Plak because her attacking technique is as bad as her defensive skills. She drops the ball so low and often gets block outs because her timing for spiking is simply absurd. I don't blame her for the loss though, she is young and will learn a lot of things but Guidetti, subbing Pietersen was the milestone of this match.
I really like Netherlands under Guidetti's coaching but they are full of simple errors. It's impossible to make double substitution because setters are not reliable and there is no good hitter from zone 2 either. Netherlands now has a big task to develop a talented setter and a talented defensive OH.
Well done USA! But I see no future in this team or system any longer. It worked well for years but now any proper serving team can resolve US easily. This time their hard core defense helped them to get the bronze. I don't even wanna think how this team would end up if Glass is injured...

happy to see USA got the bronze medal.
for holland, it was great achievement not only for the country, but even for the european glory.
after Moscow 1980, since los Angeles 1984, there have never ever been two european teams in Final Four in Olympic. thanks to NED and SRB to make it true now. -
And I am Milenist !
Go Serbia

I don't understand all those posts anti-Guidetti !
What was the Dutch NT 2 years ago ?
Don't forget he has to work with a lot of only "average" players like Pietersen, Stoltenborg, Belien or Plak. -

Don't forget he has to work with a lot of only "average" players like Pietersen, Stoltenborg, Belien or Plak.Nobody is "anti-Guidetti", everybody is aware that without him they wouldn't be where they are now. The point is that TODAY he screwed up.

It's time for the gold medal match! Team Serbia vs... Team McDonalds!

Maja is really pretty
-
serbia's staying on course. as long as they can keep up their power game and minimize errors, what can you do?
btw if vakif next season doesn't win every single game, i'll be really disappointed. zhu ting, rasic, sloetjes, hill, naz, are you kidding me?
-
Serbia is killing China on the service line, Popovic wowwww she's digging and setting.
Let's go Serbia take China down in 3-0.
-
China needs to get their sideout game going and to do that it starts with the pass...
-
i started to watch from the second set....what a terrible performance by libero popovic
-
China really stepped up their serving game.. Serbia having huge problems to pass the ball
-
popovic could defend none of zhu's spikess
-
Second set to China fueled by good serving to get an early lead. Plus, Zhu Ting's arm is warming up.
Tied 1-1
Will we get to see a close third and fourth set?
