2023 Women's Volleyball Nations League

Quote from pol

I don't like Heynen's idea to play with second team against BRA. It looks like he don't care about ranking points in the process of olympic qualifications. First team of GER is able to beat BRA, because without Gabi BRA isn't so strong in this VNL. Even one winning set in the match makes the difference in the FIVB ranking.

I think the idea is that after getting unexpected points by beating Japan yesterday, it doesn't matter losing a few points today, and it would be much more painful to risk losing anything against Korea because that would cost very many points. I'm not sure if I really agree, but considering how much we depend on our first seven, for me it's ok to give them a rest day.

Weske is doing really well, was she given a chance with A team before?

It's impossible to lose against Korea.

She's playing NCAA so she has been kinda off the radar, but I really didn't expect her to play THAT well, she's the revelation of the day!

Stigrot as reception sub is....a choice

Yeah no not against this Korea at least, the players aren't even trying to win

After Korea lost 0-3 to Croatia, it'll be interesting to see which remaining team would lose even 1 set to Korea

Don't underestimate Germany's potential to screw up

Germany has an opposite, with this performance Weske is the revelation of the week, I'm surprised, great prospect for the NT.

Roberta hás been playing bad besides been great in Poland.

Naiane played better

Referee not seeing that block touch was disgusting

Orthmann should rest a little bit more... She need to be ready for Korea, don't waste her here

Her numbers is insane, i just turn on the match now because of her.

Heynen's tactics are a mystery. NOW he brings one starter after another

Orthmann gets subbed

I don't know what it is, but I want this thing that Heynen is using.

Those strange substitutions completely destroyed the team's rhythm

Quote from Ttom

Thaisa and Hendzel are 2 players, who looks like completely different persons through the years..I wouldn't recognize her, too

Actually now these 2 look like a sisters 😅

Diana has a deadly serve
