Such a shame. I like Efe Mandiraci too btw, I get what you guys see in him. lol
Right? 
this season was his first season in Efeler Ligi and he played as OPP. He definitely has the potential to be the big thing after Adis. Keep an eye on him
(and he is cute)
For those who don't watch the match, he is talking about Kovacevic lol
He is the leader but he is not the only one, punch in the face 
. I hope they will focus a little more on the game in continue.
Thanks for the explanation! I used to think the setter should just play russian roulette and just set to whoever during the tie-break. The more you know!
Setters are flexible on set up. They normally tend to set up more to "hot hands".
Lagumdzija's stats may not look good from the chart, but he could score during clutch time. That's the key.
Turkey's setter was not on a good mindset of setting up the ball during tiebreak. When he's awake, it's already late.
He is the leader but he is not the only one, punch in the face
Kovacevic and Luburic saved Serbia.
Atanasijevic was horrible in this match, not his first time choking in the important game though.

It's unfair towards Atanasijevic to be honest IMHO, I'm not going to defend his overall career, because it is pointless (especially considering his accolades), but he had a lost season in Perugia due to injuries and Heynen's weird choices, and it's quite obvious that he's not in his best shape after 30th birthday, he's not even close to that. Two years ago he had amazing tournament and was co-MVP of Serbian team alongside Uros with ridiculous stats, so to bash him under these circumstances is simply unjust. Not to mention that Luburic has been playing even worse throughout this event, and he was prepared to be a starting opposite of Serbian team (18% spike efficiency).
Turkish male team iss following the trend of female team as 'team of missed opportunities'
After winning against Russia, they could have been number 1 in the group and reach even to semis. However the losses against Netherlands and especially Finland made win over Russia meaningless. Losing at tiebreaker is always painful to watch but with this results turkey missed WCh participation for next year, which means there's no national competition for them besides European League in 2022. Turkey won European League already multiple times. This new team desperately needed to play in WCh. It could have been a great experience for our youngsters.
As mentioned before, our setter is terrible. They missed Aslan ekşi a lot. Also our trainer is a joke for this level. It is literally like trainer of Polish female team🤦 I think libero was also very problematic as expected
Adis was kinda disappointing. He didn't play bad but after his great season in Serie A, expectations were high from him. Efe mandiraci was the revelation of the tournament. I hope Efe bayram would get the other starting oh position soon. It seems like Burutay will get 'injured' whenever it comes to NT season anyways

What is the female Polish trainer like?
What is the female Polish trainer like?
He started to train Polish NT having no experience in work with females (!) and after 2 years of practice as a main coach of Skra Belchatów. That's all of this experience. He is the less suitable person for that position.
Why Fabian Plak has to leave Dutch NT? He broke some rules but what rules?
Leo Andric with NINE aces against Slovenia so far. 
Dude singlehandedly gave Croatia this third set.
Guys, any link for France?
It would be interesting if Czech eliminated France.
The chances are slim though.

I agree Atanasijevic had his peak time and he played great in Euro championship 2019. I have been watching his games with Perugia in last a few seasons. Before his injury last year, Atanasijevic's one of the best OPPs in the world. But he's on downhill now. He's not as clutchy as before.
These last few points of the France vs Czech match are insane
These last few points of the France vs Czech match are insane
aaand Czech takes the third set 
OMG France is elimnated Winner of Russia x Poland will have an easier time int he Finals
It ended with the best possible way, stuff blocking NG!!
Congrats to the Czechs! Really glad that they didn’t let the match slip away after that unfortunate net touch.
OMG France is elimnated
Or not. If they can beat France, why not any other? Although it might not happen twice and they used all their luck.
The czechs really love the hunt...
