THAILAND Pornpun was simply amazing and once they started running those combinations Poland's block was nowhere to be found

Canada's win is good news for Netherlands in terms of this tournament. It's less good news for the world ranking, but there is more time to fix that

Bruhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Huh Nootsara made a comeback?
Is it because other setters are injured? Or a general comeback?
-
Lol Blagojevic with Shenzen against Serbia
-
Its due to her abdominal muscle injury

So the team travelled to Japan today. Nova Marring took the place of Hester Jasper back and Britte Stuut is with the team for the training internship in Japan. She'll go home when the rest of the team heads to China. I am unsure if she was already training with Rote Raben and got called away, or that she didn't join the team there yet

OTOH a photo of a promo event from yesterday includes Dutch junior OH Noa De Vos, so maybe she'll play for Wiesbaden?
There was an article about her going to play in the Bundesliga, but it's deleted (link). It's either unofficial or cancelled or TBA i think

Dutch team will travel to Japan tomorrow to practise for 6 days. After that they'll go to China for OQT

What a game yesterday!! I never ever could've imagine a 3-0 against Italy, and we got 12 important points for the world ranking. Italy looked dead with no fire in their eyes at all. There's always drama around them and most girls deserve better than that. I really can't imagine threating your superstar opposite like this
And another great game by Marrit Jasper. She finally got the opportunty to be more than a serve/backrow sub and she took it with both hands. We're also so lucky with our middle blockers. The gap Belien and De Kruijf left is unoticable, there is no gap actually.
The final was great to watch as well. What else could one wish for than an exciting 5 set match? Turkey is the well deserved winner of the tournament. My personal dream team would be:
S: Ognjenovic (showed she still has it. Turned around the match against NED on her own, while being sick)
OH: Daalderop, Karakurt (hate to admit it but her performance was outstanding for someone who switched positions so recent)
MB: Eda, Lohuis
OP: Boskovic
L: Gizem
Can't wait for Olympic Qualifiers starting in a few weeks!
-
Maja with a big positive impact on Serbian side. Van Aalen is playing really really well also
-
Lohuis has Boskovic in her pocket
Edit: and also the complete Serbian reception line-up. OOS balls only after her serve
-
Reesink is way better this set luckily
-
Irregular Lohuis appreciation post 🥰🥰🥰🥰
-
Pls give me Knip in the next set. Reesink was awful in service reception
-
That was fantastic volleyball by Turkey, well deserved final for (most of) them!!
-
Egonu's aura is kinda worrying
Compared to her even Goncharova would look like a fountain of emotions, I think I haven't seen a single smile of her since she's on court
I was about to write about Paola Goncharova. If you can come from the bench and do this you're a real superstar. She let her actions speak for her
-
I mean any team would miss De Gennaro but Fersino tho... she's been incredible so far

Best part of the match 100%. Hope they have the balls to give red if needed
