yeah but no one gets cringier than ebrar for both men and women. its not even ~spicy behavior just pure whack. staring your opponent down, shouting at them is not and will never be sigma
Totally agree!

Poland have several players who are irritating and like to challenge the opponent when they have chances.
Besides Fornal, Kaczmarek and Huber are also trouble makers. They did similar things in ECH 2023.
Irritating ? Maybe
The master was Zaytsev fm Italian team the rest of players are ... far behind his behavior.

It was classic match! Semi-final with both determination to win! It was similar like WCH S/F 2018. 1-2 and hard won fourth set. Finally after 48 years I will be able to watch Poland in OG final! Thank you !

Wolosz ended career in Polish NT.
She declared it few min ago.
-
No mental and fighting spirit. I was almost sure final result after mid first set. Poland is able to be on high level when they strongly enter match and win first set especially with teams like USA. Congrats to USA !
-
Sorry for team with best shape it doesn't matter- see WCH 2018 in Italy. Poland had to play four or five games day after day incl. SF and final /with USA and Brazil/
-
Seems like Group B is the strongest
hard to predict stangings except 4th place
sorry Egypt
So in OG we will have battle Poland vs Brazil both men and women
I think it's good group for all except Egypt. Winning by 3 pts could be enough to be in QF. Other groups are more balanced so hard to get points.
-
What a fantastic few actions both sides ! World class game with fighting spirit. Congratulation to Poland but also to Brazil.
-
Italy played perfect game with almost no mistakes. Congratulation ! Poland was on
the orher side not concentrated and looked tired without positive energy.

Kenya. Kenya won African Champs, Egypt runner up. Cameroon fell of a bit.
Kenya is on top of African teams in FIVB ranking but final ticket to be given in 17th June to highest ranked team. The same for Asian team. Now China is on top.

disagree, we lost against Thailand because of our focus at the beggining of sets
I played a little bit and believe me sometimes opponent team is playing over standard level. Additionally everbody incl. players expects win, you make few mistakes and suddenly other team is very dangerous till the end. Thailand is not bad and has always well defence. Polish team doesn't like to play against them, Japan and Dominican Rep.
-
Can someone explain to me why FIVB (and wikipedia as well) has not acknowledged Serbia as qualified yet?
Serbia is qualified already. On wiki tounaments results Serbia is marked Q.
-
yes, hun. They literally gave out 2nd set, can’t you see?
It's volleyball ! Fighting spirit first of all. Particular set doesn't matter.
-
Typical polish team, basically gave out the 2nd set
Are you sure expert ?

Congrats to all medallists. Semi-finals and final were just great. Italy played good but missed their chance in 4th set and ended outside top 3. Serbia and Turkey are on the same level but both teams are not perfect and can play beautiful volleyball or with a lot of unforced errors. Netherlands is a solid team if they are mentally prepared for hard game. Poland was on lower level but with some luck /other draw/ could go higher.
PS - sorry I really do not like behavior of Karakurt. She is female Zaitsev from Italy.

I agree, but this is classic Soviet-style or "old school". The coaches are trying to use very authoritarian means - such as screaming highly in the face - in order to inject a superior discipline in the team. Teams from the so called eastern block, such as Russia, Ukraine, Poland and Belarus, are the ones mostly famous for employing such tactics or strategies within the context of volleyball (and sports in general).
For Poland ended few decades ago ! Exclude us from Your list.
Last real example of such coach was Russian Karpol. He screamed to all players during Uraloczka game against Police. It was strange because after gane he was very calm. I don't remember anybody similar to his behaviour.

After the Poland Women’s team being “excluded” from the award ceremony, it’s so nice of Poland to have the Men’s bronze medalist standing on the stage together to receive their medals
It should be always that way !
-
Well balanced Polish team + fighting spirit! Good match ! Congratulations!

Looks like we are finally partly back in OG qualification system 80' :
1 host USA
5 Continental champions 2026 (old system)
3 World Championship 2027 best teams not yet qualified (v.good idea - in the past World Champion was always directly qualified)
3 World best FIVB ranked teams (Nation League will be also important)
My personal feeling - Continental Championships and World Championships will be finally on high level motivation and no additional qualification tournaments consuming time and decreasing value of core Championship tournaments.

Strange to announce host so early but nothing is comparible to FIVB
