Three short videos of the match:

2nd set was 17, not 11 according to our federation.
Germany: Weiss, Grün (15), Kozuch (11), Dumler (10), Fürst, Ssuschke, Tzscherlich (L); Apitz, Brinker, Beier
Poland played with all stars (Glinka, Swieniewicz, Skowronska) but our federation does not give a detailed line-up.

Italy team:

Outside Hitters: Antonella Del Core, Valentina Fiorin, Serena Ortolani, Manuela Secolo.
Libero: Paola Cardullo, Paola Croce,
Opposite: Taismaris Aguero
Middles: Jenny Barazza, Simona Gioli, Martina Guiggi
Setters: Francesca Ferretti, Eleonora Lo Bianco

Crazy decisions of Barbolini...two liberos, only one opposite and Anzanello not in the team.

Where do you have this information from?
And why Kabeshova???

I thought Salonpas Cup was cancelled this year??? A German team (I think Schweriner SC, but I'm not sure) was invited there but they wrote on their website that the tournament was cancelled :o

Joana, do you know why Grbac refused to play in Junior WCH?

Is it true that from 2009 on 16 teams will play on WGP?

Match statistics: http://www.cev.lu/mmp/online/w…3/9971/9972/index_EN.html

Serbia spoiled two match points, first Nikolic touched the net when Guiggi spiked out, then Cebic tried to defend an attack of Ortolani that would have gone out as well.

Sendspace ALWAYS tells me that the free service is at full capacity :cry2:

Serbian team:

Setters: MAJA OGNJENOVIĆ and MAJA SIMANIĆ.
LIBERO: SUZANA ĆEBIĆ.
OPPs: ANJA SPASOJEVIĆ and JOVANA BRAKOČEVIĆ.
MBs: VESNA ČITAKOVIĆ – ĐURIŠIĆ, NATAŠA KRSMANOVIĆ and IVANA ISAILOVIĆ.
OHs: JELENA NIKOLIĆ, BRIŽITKA MOLNAR, JOVANA VESOVIĆ and JASNA MAJSTOROVIĆ.

Transfer of Atika Bouagaa to Besiktas Istanbul is official now.

Daniela Lanner Mapeli from Hotel Cantur signs with German team RR Vilsbiburg.

Mello wanted to take a year off from NT in 2003, then Bonitta said if she does not play ECH (in 2003) she won't play Olympic Games either.

The Ger-Ned rivalry also exists in volleyball. There's no hostilaty at all between players, many Dutch players also played in German league, but both teams are extra motivated when they play against each other (bronze match ECH03, 2nd round match WCH06...)

Where do you have this information from?

Quote from "WIELKI_ZNAWCA_PIERWSZY"

Acosta gave clear reason why Poland will play in WGP 2008.

Oh yes? Please tell me what he said.

Please don't get me wrong, my problem is not that it's Poland who is directly qualified but in general FIVB's actions. LothiePG you said WCH was quite fair, well of course they can't manipulate everything but I don't think it's very fair that Japan was in a ridiculously easy pool, not to mention the MVP choice.

You guys do know FIVB don't you?? They care for nothing but money, for them it doesn't matter who is European/World/Olympic champion, money is what matters. When they give a wild card, why do they give it to the European champion (the OLD European champion who has yet to defend its title) and not the World champion? Sorry but you can forget these arguments, it's all about money in FIVB.

Money makes the world go round...and it looks like Polish federation has enough of it to enjoy FIVB privileges whereas other European teams don't...

If I were him I would leave Aguero, Lo Bianco and Barazza or Fiorin out...I think this decision of CEV is so totally idiotic!

Guidetti will take 13 players to Turkey, he has not yet decided which one will not play.

Setters: Weiss, Apitz
Opposites: Grün, Steffen
OHs: Bouagaa, Dumler, Kozuch, Brinker, Beier
MBs: Fürst, Ssuschke, Radzuweit
L: Tzscherlich

I don't think Artamonova will play. The countries have to send a list of 22 players to CEV, so they just add some random names. E.g. in German roster there are 4 players who probably don't even know that their names are on the list :wink2:
