2020 Olympic Games - qualification

  • By the way, it would not be the first five set match of Germany vs. Belgium the last years... the first set hints to some very close race today.

  • Van de Vijver is a limited setter IMHO. In the beginning of the set she was lucky Belgium was receiving good, so she has an easier job distributing the ball. Later they had a lot of trouble in reception and she had a hard time making the right decisions. Lippmann had to score all the points for Germany...

  • Everybody knows that they need to play their 150% to fulfill their dream, and they are playing it... I thought that Euro Championship was already fun, but this is another level! Really good matches :box:

  • Geerties-Orthman-Lippmann is a SCARY good trio! If Germany had a better MB than Scholzel and a little less crazy setter than Hanke, they would be unstoppable!

  • Weitzel serve is so important for Germany! They always go on a point scoring run with her on serve.

  • I'm only rooting for Germany because of Koslowski:heart: (and maybe a little for Lippman:super:).

    Favorite players: M: Maxim Mikhaylov, Murilo, Serginho, Aaron Russell, Otavio, Simone Giannelli, Ivan Zaytsev, Tsvetan Sokolov, Michał Kubiak, Mariusz Wlazly, Pawel Zagummy W: Sheilla, Zhu Ting, Natalia, Fe Garay, Fofao, Gabi, Thaisa, Foluke Akinradewo, Wei Qiuyue, Ding Xia, Carli Lloyd, Fabi, Natalia Goncharova, Yuko Sano, Saoris Kimura and Sakoda

  • Orthmann and Weitzel were the missing links in the last years for Germany and now we finally found them :heart: Hanke and Schölzel don't show their best performance yet in this tournament, they can do better.


    After years of having to put up with Brinker and Kozuch being the closest thing to world class hitters Germany had (and thanks to Guidetti reaching two ECH finals with them!), it's such a pleasure to have Lippmann and Orthmann now!

  • Geerties-Orthman-Lippmann is a SCARY good trio! If Germany had a better MB than Scholzel and a little less crazy setter than Hanke, they would be unstoppable!

    To be fair the crazy was probably developed and reinforced because she had no offensive MBs until Weitzel was integrated to Germany.
