france win 3-2 to croatia

Diouf best scorer

She's tall and good prospect,I hope she and rotar became french star and be in olympics

like i said without russia and italy

This tournament is a non sense

once again any club from italy

wow

A resolution said that teams from russia and ukraine can't play together

So moscow.will be changed

If he won his match in 2nd round he will be probably scandicci

Really hard and injustice,both should be in 4th round

i read in many sites about russia

So without the 2 best teams this tournament is a joke

so sad

Italy was training hardly to this

I hope this gonna be reportef

Quote from beri

in theory both Hande and Thompson can play for Boskovic when needed and Fatma can come in, I'm sure this will happen but in the past Tijana has always been overused and she is captain now so yea Idk

Not before she had kim,bethania,larson,natalia and good MB

Fatma she isn't reliable.and she's weak in attack

Hande has ups and downs,she can score but she's not gonna be the main score at least with a powerful team

Thompson she's good but let see how she handle the pressure to receive

In conclusion Bosko is gonna be used a lot

i don't think sheilla is going to play abroad

She wants to stay at brazil

Quote from Let's go orange

Is there a team left in Brazil who can afford her and who still needs an opposite? Or is playing abroad her only option?

what i read by voloch is that she was going to receive the same monry as the last season but she wantes to play

All big 5 teams have their opposites abd the other don't have too much budget

Because even if the olympics like jaque,paula and other aren't in their peaks a long time ago,they're still receiving a lot just for their status

in all matches boskovic have done +20 points per game

She is gonna play all matches this season and can't rest

Wow

Quote from sloth

Or maybe she thinks she deserves more money that Minas was willing to pay... Either way, good decision for all parts involved

I read in group of Brazil i think voloch said that minas proposed to her the same monry that last season but she didn't renew because wanted to be a starter

Normally not a game I would watch, because both China and Dominican Republic aren't my favorite teams. On the other hand Castillo is one of my favourit players, so you made me curious to watch this game. You didn't say to much, because what a great performance in defense by Castillo and a nice match to watch with a lot of rally's! I think they should use her performance in this game to learn young libero's how you should read the opponents game. She was everywhere on court and made dig after dig. Also her sets in transition are one of the best in the world Doesn't matter where she is on court, she can deliver a perfect set for the attacker. IMO De Gennaro is a bit more consistent, but when Castillo plays at the top of her game, she is the more complete libero. Also De La Cruz impressed me, what a dominant attacker she was back than! Marte reminds me a bit of Dijkema Playing a solid game, but in the important moments very shaky and not involving the middles at all.

As for China, Zhu Ting already a beast in attack but a bit clumsy in defense I always love Zeng Chunlei her smile Also Yuan with a great performance for a 17 year old! Wonder what happened to Shen Jingsi, Yang Junjing and Shan Danna? Can't remember them playing for the Chinees NT after the WCH 2014 and they played pretty good back than.

Jingsi shen was the back-up setter till 2015 but then appeared ding xia and she wasn't considerer to rio and didn't appear this last year

Yang yunying was a very good middle blocker

She was injured in that game i think and don't play the finals

Aftee that yuan occuped her place till now and she reappeared but in bench

i don't like actual japan's setters

They're so predictable

If you can see a match of japan nowadays you're gonna see the setters doing the oh 3 or 4 balls to oh in the same rally

Also japan has grown this last year and i think they're going to rise their level but i don't see this actual or future japan team battling for medals in any fivb competition (only avc)

it's oficial the schedule.of italian league

Start 20 september and a good game is busto vs monza

Quote from StefanS

I have read the conditions of the league due to Corona pandemics, and it sounds horrible:

maximum 10% spectators are allowed from the full seat capacity of a hall. The protection masks have to worn all the time in the hall, if not players, who are warming up, or currently playing, it applies to everyone there.

Entering requires temperature measurement.

If other leagues act like this, the fan cloud will be effectively dead - better than participants die because of pandemics of course... it shows the extremely difficult position of the clubs and leagues now.

How it's horrible? They follow the protocols given by the autorities and that's good

i don't think she won't play in supercup cause the recovery is gonna take 2 weeks and i hope she can be 100% for the start of the league instead

so like is not new thread i put it here

The next ligue A will no have playoffs and the champions will be the best team at regular season

So weird considering that 2 years ago mullhouse who was almost perfect in reg. Was defeated and eliminated by marcq en bareoul that just qualified a match before the end of the regular season

sesc/Flamengo

the same format as italy cup

A good start to see the teams

Quote from Let's go orange

I just watched the match and you were right, what a GREAT match!!!

You know the tune they use after a long rally: “This is volleyball”. Well, this match shows what volleyball is IMO! Both teams playing flawless and at their best

I'm not the biggest fan of China, but they have a really balanced team with strong players at every position. Lead by the best player of the world: Zhu Ting. She is just phenomenal, good in all aspects of the game. They use the middles a lot more as Italy and that is the merit of Ding Xia. Her sets to the slide are spot on and really difficult to read for the opponent. Yuan and Yan Ni aren’t just great attackers, but also strong in block. Opposite Gong and libero Wang are the silent weapons for the team. They do not stand out, but their work in defense is key for the way Ding Xia can set her attackers. The second outside hitter position is wide open, where they can use both Zhang and Li. Zhang brings more stability in serve receive and Li bring more firepower at the net.

Everything worked out perfectly for Italy this match (tournament). Egonu just great in attack, both in system and out of system. Good thing she became way more stable the last two years. Malinov did a great job delivering a decent ball to Egonu when they were out of system, but when they were in system, she played really fast to the outside. Bosetti and De Gennaro made sure they could play a lot in system, because their service reception was really good. Also the fast bumpsets of De Gennaro, just awesome! They are the real leaders of the team and ensure that the team keeps a cool head through their experience. Also Sylla received pretty good and helped out Egonu in attack. Both middles, Danesi and Chirichella, probably played their life tournament. Especially in block they were really important for the team.

Hope both teams can find this form again next year during the Olympics and they are one of the many favourites for the gold medal; Serbia the strongest team in the last few years. USA is much stronger than during WCH, solving their problems on the setter position. They probaply have the strongest outside hitters in one roster of all national teams and have some new talented players at the middle blocker position. The same applies to Brazil as to the USA. Macris solved the problem at the setter position and Thaisa is back in beast mode. Also Gabi became one of the best outside hitters in the world. Finally you have Turkey as dark horse. Can Guidetti do the same he did with the Netherlands in Rio?

Can't wait to watch live volleyball matches again and let's hope some matches of the Olympics 2020 will finish in this list of best NT matches!

I don't know if was in the semis or in group phase but in one of those zhang only did 1 POINT

Incredible and that point was a bad defense from sylla,an overpass

In the other game she wasn't appear also
