2025 FIVB Women's World Championship

  • hahah we will see tomorrow, but right now I need to calm down after today games and than I will predict another results :lol::rolll:

    I think it's a good thing NL lost to Japan in QF because I couldn't have survived this weekend, I'm already losing it with watching these other teams :cheesy: It may have taken a while with many one-sided group matches but the elimination stage does not disappoint. Even if the level isn't always there, the fighting spirit and drama is

  • Would ZR start Julia B tomorrow?

  • He cannot play with just one outside.

    I’m sorry but you treating the other bench players like Helena or Tainara cant contribute to the team is annoying

  • Watching the match as a supporter is not stressing at all, says Stefano, 31:

    Jokes aside, we needed a match like this, being pushed to our very limit and fight for every single ball. Brazil was simply amazing, they did everything right and apart from Júlia Bergmann I really struggle to find a girl that was bad. They exposed our weakness in the OH position, they made both Egonu and Antropova sweat for a kill and canceled our game in the middle. I'm not lucid enough to add more as now, but I want to say that Myriam Sylla's heart is big enough to even cover Earth's circumference.

    MVP of the semifinal. People can hate her, call her average, that all her wins are due to Egonu/Antropova, but reality is that she on her way to becoming an OG, VNL and WCH champion, collecting best OH awards at EVERY competition, and counting!

  • You assuming that Ze will put Helena in a medal match while not playing at all this summer is not.

    I also said Tainara. Btw, Rosamaria can play as OH2 too and Tainara/Kisy as OP

  • Roberta had some bad times but she was 10 times better than both Italian setters. Stop blaming her. Did Rosamaria had ever attacked with double block in front of her and won a point ??? NO. She attackd almost all time with one block and enormous gaps. As a result Bergamnn took the terrible balls. This is how it worked.

    Italy played by far their worst match this summer and Brazil played by far their best match of the summer ( without Ana Cristina) and yet this is the result.

    She's Italy's version of Gabi today. :super:

    I hope that Italy will win tomorrow and I will have excuse for polish team that we lost with World Champion (joke) :lol:

    But I have the same feeling like you, if my polish girls would play today, I feel that I would not sleep few nights before because of stress :sos::rolll:

  • Would ZR start Julia B tomorrow?

    I think Ze would. From my prespective, he'd probably want her to redeem herself from today's loss. It wouldn't be a surprise anymore as Ze kept her as starter in THY all season long. I hope she'll be able to bounce back.

  • Both 3x2 matches tomorrow? hopefully!

    I forgot if Mari started after the loss to Russia in OG.

  • I wonder how the result could looks like if Ana Cristina would be healthy:/

    Gabi, AC and Rosamaria would be the perfect lineup for Brazil.

  • didnt Watch the match. But Ze adds a lot to the team but he sometimes just makes crazy things. Bring only 2 proper OH to the most the most prestigous competition of the year was his record. Helena is still young and he didnt gave experience to her in VNL. Not having a defensive oH at least (as he opted to bring an unexperienced player as Helena) was something amature .


    Btw congratulations to all girls. Once again Brazil among the very bests. Hope the team can figure out and take the win tomorrow.

  • He cannot play with just one outside.

    I thought I was the only one here super obssessed with Brazil 😂

    meanwhile Rezende on the men’s team is giving chances and experiences to Lukas, Darlan, Arthur and Thiery. ZR really needs to have a talk with the folks at CBV. Seems like he didnt trust his bench players to even play for minutes
