So this starts tomorrow. We are going to participate for the first time, and by my account, about damn time we started playing with the big teams. Goal is to not get relegated, but if we get a couple of wins it would be a success.

Netherlands - Brazil in the same week in the same venue as last year, too bad my girlfriend arrives a week later this time...not much fun going to  -  without someone cheering for the opposing team

So, only an hour till game 1, still no official lineups anywhere, well done FIVB.

 - , let's go  

 

Always a bit of a special match for me in any sport, let's see if the Dutch team can take their second win in 32 matches against Brazil

this league doesn't make sense at all. Almost all teams with B teams. For example only 3 players from last year team (Serbia) are right now in Italy. But it is expected, this year is very important.

Also the Dutch team is competing with a very young and inexperienced team, although some of the top players (like Celeste Plak) are on the roster. I don't think she specifically is in the team this week though, haven't seen her yet.

 

Netherlands going from 19-14 to 19-20 in the third set (at 1-1)

19-14 to 20-25, unbelievable.

I wanted to know how much some players pay to be in the starting lineup. Bia, for example, must pay a fortune.

From 18-12 to 19-17, here we go again..
