Egonu is ridiculously good
Italy - Serie A1 2018/19

Egonu

Egonu wins again. Lippman failed to score when Firenze was leading by 3 points.
-
That's what makes a real star, when it really counts Egonu is going to kill the ball
I hope Lippmann will find back to her old self in NT summer, right now she's weaker than some years ago

Firenze

Egonu is worth much more money than this, she's out of this world! Daalderop will take Bujis's plays in starting six soon.
-
Undeserved win for Novara!!! Bad decisions by Dijkema in the end cost them the win It's a pity of the last over pass of Daalderop, she played great today and kept Firenze in the game!
-
Sansonna is crying, hope she will be ok soon

Sansonna is crying, hope she will be ok soon
I wonder how severe is she injured.
-
I want to say Sara Alberti really impressed me not just today but a few times this season. If the NT needs a slider then they could do worse than her...
Dijkema should have given her (and Popovic) more balls today.
-
Congrats to Firenze, they played with great spirit and they really believed it. Novara has proved to be a great team, coming from several hard matches with the necessary wins, both in CL and in the play-offs. Now they habe to regain their form and play better.
From Veljkovic's words, Sansonna's injury isn't too serious. Anyway, I often criticised Sansonna for her shaky reception, but when Zannoni came in Novara's reception started to sink. They really need Stefania back.

Poor girl must be exhausted. And it's not like Eczacibasi where Boskovic could manage to skip a few games against the weaker teams too. I hope nothing bad happens to her body with the NT season coming up.

The first Semi-final match will take place on Thursday, and Novara is the guest team. I hope that Barbolini will let her rest. She really needs more time to recover.

Egonu is a phenomenon. She`s already one of the best players to ever play the game. Legend in the making.
-
"Out of this world" is just a standard expression. Lots of players have been called like that. There's nothing bad about it.
HUGE congrats to Firenze! I didn't think they had it in them. They looked down and out and yet they still kept believing and fighting and almost caused a big upset. They're such a likeable team, too. IMO Dijkema's had a rather blah season, with a slightly better setter they could have achieved even greater things. That said, it really hasn't been a season for the setters in Serie A. Apart from Wolosz, no one's really stood out.
Novara survives again, but this will be the end of the road for them if they keep it like this. Egonu must be running on fumes at this point (if she's indeed not an alien!) and even if she was fully fresh, they need more than just her and Veljković contributing on the court when they take on Scandicci, that's finally looking like a real team. Of course, now that I said it, watch it become yet another Egonu vs Haak battle.
-
I don't like Dijkema at all, she is the weakest link in The Netherlands and also Firenze imo. I hope one of the back-up Dutch setters can step up some time. Don't get me wrong, there are for sure times that she delivers and is reliable but I have never really been wow'ed by her.
-
I think Dijkema has done a nice job....Look at the roster she has...besides Sorokaite and (Malesevic) they are all young and upcoming players. This is a very young team without a lot of experience None of them are world class players or even close to that..... If Firenze had any other setter that is playing Serie A besides Woloz they certainly would not even reach the playoffs in my opinion. And not because this roster is not capable, but the setters in Italy are terrible this season.

egonu and boscovic will fight for best opposite in the future~~
