Polish players play badly compared to the national league, many mistakes, ineffective attacks. The whole game depends on Stysiak... even with weaker players, we don't exist without her. Italy is a class better than our team even with this coach. We should do our best to save this good ranking

 

Even after 25-9 in fourth set? You never know with womens sport, especially in team sports, I believe that it was this one always one bad match during long tournament and now will play better and will be more motivated after troubles.

And nice road to lost second.  I told everyone everywhere US and Italy easy win here with quota.

I think Germany makes a good chance too. Especially when Poland is in a bad form, Italy misses a lot of their good players and USA is the last opponent of Germany (I fear USA is already qualified by then and will give rest to some of their best players).

You saw the last matches with Turkey or now with Korea? Italy will win easily. Too many mistakes.

Germany lost a set against Colombia today. If losing a set against South Korea is a bad sign for Poland, than losing a set against Colombia is an even worse sign for Germany. :d

Korea is 36th in the world, Colombia 21st. That'quite a difference. But I agree, losing a set against Colombia isn't impressive either. But still I think Germany has a good chance for a win against Poland (and in the last game against USA).

Its difficult for each team to keep high form by whole long season. I want just remind that Italy is playing here without their best players and also are without high form as at VNL. Do you remember that they finished EC without medal losing to Netherlands? I think that we still are favourite for quota (alongside USA) here, mostly by playing in home. Mark my words.

Given the amount of pessimism on this thread, I would not be surprised if in the end no team qualifies from this tournament 

@Benolympique can you help us out and provide some optimism, or do you also think :FRA will somehow fail to qualify?

    • This season? It's a pity that we couldn't try fight for him, especially considering our problems in the sprints. 
    • Lara Malsinier and Alex Insam are junior World Championship medalists from a few years ago. Maybe it was possible to provide them with private teams then and now they could even fight for a single podium from time to time? I mean especially women because there, for example: Canada or France can be in the top, so why not us? Now Rodlauer from Austria has joined the Italian team but for now there is a huge gap to the top and only Sieff and Lara Malsinier are jumping well. There was success in the Summer Grand Prix but with a weak competition. Even 3rd place in a single competition in winter is worth more than winning the LGP with a terrible squad.   It remains to wait but I fear that the most we can count on is a dramatic fight with France and maybe Finland in the mixed competition at the World Championships. Bresadola probably won't return this season, so only the inconsistent Insam remains. 
    • When did Kim Min-Seok switch to Hungary?
    • Earlier today, Taiwan beat the USA    Of course it's car from the best US tram but it's still a big deal for Taiwanese baseball
    • And even here we lose to France? I really don't know what's the point of organizing the Olympics if you can't make progress in practically any sport. France has the Olympics in 2030 and there they will definitely prepare 100%, just like for Paris. We can't do that. It's obvious that in ski jumping we have no chance of winning medals, but decency dictates that we should at least win here with a France like that.
    • Finally the ski jumping season begins 11 teams in the (real) mixed team competition, no Switzerland.
    • Most of our athletes are constantly bothered by something: the pressure to qualify, the miss of pressure when they have already qualified, etc. It's the same in football: at the beginning of the season they are a poor form becouse of a little played and at the end of the season they are tired. They are always looking for excuses. A real champion always plays at a high level, like Sinner, and doesn`t look for 1000 excuses for his poor performance.
    • Think it is mentally difficult for the two teams with the Olympic place guaranteed and the pressure off, whereas everyone else is absolutely playing at 110%.  I'm sure things will be better once they get to Milan. 
    • There's no point in cheating, these were terrible European Championships for us. Retronaz out of form, Constantini with a huge number of big mistakes. Only illness can excuse it... We've probably lost the last 10 matches with Switzerland... It looks like Constantini had the tournament of her life in mixed doubles in 2022 in Beijing and she will never reach this level again.
