EuroVolley 2021-Serbia, Romania, Bulgaria & Croatia

    What do you folks think of Germany coach? Seems cool to me but I can't understand anything he says. But I also feel like *I* could bring these German girls to the podium. They're waiting for me :super:

    I think he's very good. I've never heard any player say anything bad about him (and many speaking very highly of him), and his time-out talks usually are a good mix between tactical advice and motivational speech. Besides that, in the last years many players improved significantly under his guidance in Schwerin too.

    that's good to hear. He seems like a super swell guy

    Quite strange for me that Tijana plays for Serbia and Dajana for other NT.

    Because Boskovic sisters are born in BIH but they are Serbians. One choose to play for her nation and other for her country.

    Unbelivable that even in ECH and with low level team serbia play the same with boskovic


    What happened to maja?

    Plus that one (Dajana) which chose "her country", made that choice just because she was aware that in "her nation" she wouldn't be even on the wide list for VNL.

    What happened to maja?

    Indeed this is so random, on this match number of sets by pins and middles was pretty much good deployed. Maybe some OOS balls could go to the OH's instead of all of them to Bosković, but in general your comment just isn't suitable for this match.

    The real issue is that Bošković had no business playing this match in the first place, but I guess she needed to because it was hyped as "the battle of the sisters" in our media. Also Kocić should have played instead of Rašić, Lazović should have played more and I wanted to say that Maja should have also been spared but then again Mirković on court is never a good sight.

    What happened to maja?

    Boskovic only attacked 7 more times than Busa according to the statistics, and both the middles got a lot of sets considering it was only 3 short sets. I don’t know what more you expected, opposites are always going to get the most balls in pretty much every team, but the distribution in this match was honestly good.


    I know people hate watching boskoball ( and tbh I don’t like it either, it’s boring), but winning a match with boskoball is better than losing a match while having great distribution, which is probably what would happen against a lot of higher level teams if the other attackers aren’t able to score. What Serbia desperately needs is a new offensive OH that can be a reliable scoring option and then Maja would probably chill on the boskoball tactics

    but in yesterdays game it was not just Boskoball. I guess in Olympics Serbia didnt even have that much OH and middle attack as yesterday. I hope they keep doing like this


    about the Boskovic sisters: Dajana accepted the fact that in BIH Nt she would be chosen but in the serbia she would not. But i think that i have never seen a more supportive sister than her in a sport where two of them is on the "same" level sometimes (i mean ECH for exemple) and okay, they get defeated by Serbia, but I hope they can show other teams why they got in for ECH, because i think they are relatively good for a small country like BIH

    please somebody have link for Poland-Greece tonight? thx
