Defeat was expected, so whatever. But I don't see Poland beating Italy if they play like today.

Ishikawa is a beast. Top 5 OH in the world right now for sure.

Also another thing, I prefer women, but I have to admit Lavia is a very handsome man. Wish I looked like him

Primeiro ouro para a Polônia em uma VNL!

Poland playing without their top three players (Leon, Kurek and Bieniek) and still managed to win. It's very difficult to beat a team with such a good squad, even more so with fans like that.
