Awesome to have this new format now instead of going from groups to....another group and only then a knock-out. Makes the whole thing feel a lot more professional and serious for some reason, and way

I can't believe how badly the Brazilians played after the 13-13 tie in the 5th set. Of course Italy was the favorite to win, and deservedly so, but the Brazilians had the no emotional control in the last two points and the Italians were as cold blooded as one can be. Congratulations. Well deserved victory for Italy.

This was easily one of the top 5 volleyball games I have ever seen :yikes:

 

I think Brazil played slightly better throughout most of the game. If the match had been stopped at 13-13 in the 5th and the winner had to be decided by judges, Brazil would have won.

 

Brazil passed perfectly for 5 sets, basically neutralizing even Antropova's serve. When she hit a cannonball with Italy up 12-11 in the tie-break and Brazil received perfectly again, I thought that was a turning point in the match. Then at 13-13, they basically shot themselves in the foot off an innocuous float serve by Sylla.

 

The match gave me the same feeling as Djokovic vs. Federer at Wimbledon 2019: the loser seemed to do everything better and should have won according to all criteria, and yet somehow lost.

 

Also, Gabi's performance was one for the ages.

I can say that was one of the most entertaining volleyball match I ever seen. probably only 2nd to 2012 men's Olympic final. (I'm sure there are lots of other great matches but only this came to mind) and Gabi's performance today was one of the best ever. maybe THE best ever. :bowdown:

 

Italy almost had no plan to play under pressure, I mean no plan B because they never needed that in past 2 summers. when you win for a very long time, you usually lose when it hurts the most. hopefully they learn from this and play better tomorrow. 

 

I hope Brazilian fans don't be too hard on Julia Bergmann. that was sad watching her cry after the match. 

 

btw I know about injuries on both sides (Ana Cristina, Degradi etc) but can someone tell me why C. Bosetti is not with Italy anymore ? and Carol (the middle blocker) for Brazil. retired from the NT? injured? not good enough anymore ?

I'm afraid we'll lose to Turkey in the final. However, we play today much longer and  some hours later. Turkey is in the best form of the season here and we're not playing as well as we did in Paris. Secondly, Vargas played brilliantly today, from what I can see in the statistics. It's fortunate we have Antropova, but unfortunately, the pur weakness at second-OH is obvious in matches like this. We would really need Pietrini in good form... Brazil is our toughest opponent recently, so maybe this was our worst match? Hopefully...

Now the question is, will it be possible to recover properly for tomorrow? That's less than 24 hours.... We haven't played many matches here, but that might be a factor. It's also clear that Antropova is playing against Bra better than Egonu. Kate also had to enter the VNL final and score the most points. Today was the same. Without such a strong reserve as Antropova, we were for 99% lost today, I think.

Sadly, in the US they only aired the first Semi, not the second.  (I don't pay to watch online.). But they will (supposedly) be airing the finals...hoping for a good game!

 

(They didn't even show all the VNL games with the US playing...who knows why?)

      I love that it is more straightforward in relation to the number of quotas and does not allow possible problems as it was in Tokyo and Paris.

      I love the judo qualification system, for me is the best in all disciplines. It combines a strong circuit, and it allows 100 or so countries to participate in.   So, maybe, if UWW does its job properly, it will be a good thing.

      The strength of the UK is that they are 100% focused on the track, while Italy must to navigate between the track and the road: the line-up is different for practically every event, etc. Paternoster should focus 100% on the track; she won't win anything big on the road anymore. As it is, she's weak both there and there. The situation is different with Balsamo, as she's also having significant success on the road and likely earns the most money there.

      Discovery+ in the UK have also got their schedule up now.     I notice that only thing listed as being in UHD is the Opening Ceremony though....

      The problem over the last few years was that no-one was able to keep pace with the big Katie Archibald turns. Looks to be sorted now.

      The women's top 50 is so crammed with athletes from the same five nations that it is not inconceivable they are unable to fill the full quota from the top 50, in which case a third double spot would open up between USA/BEL/GBR

      That women's pursuit team looks brutally fast. Batter you over the head into submission brutal, perhaps not seen since the early Trott-Rowsell days The 4 minute barrier could be on borrowed time.   The two British women sprinters Finucane and Caldwell also look pretty ominous, indeed the whole women's sprint team looks in some shape and with some depth to get that result without Finucane   Work to do for the British men's teams, but they won't be unhappy either, not to mention Joe Truman's unexpected Kilo win.

      How Many Medals do You Expect from Your Nation at the Winter Olympic Games Milano Cortina 2026？

      By JockCartier · Posted

      I prefer to do mine like this guy (https://app.podiumsport.it/) does his "Projected Medals" as probability based rather than straight medal picking... all things being equal, conversion rates should be about the same and the outliers come out in the wash. Unfortunately most people just like medal picking, and think any other approach is weird

      So probably: Men Oceania: Americas: Africa: Asia: One of  Europe: One of Host: World Rankings: Combination of  (probably not)  and whichever countries don’t qualify from Asian Games.  Universality: ? Final Qualification Tournament: One of the above in World Rankings    and one of  (most likely) or  seem safe with two quotas. The other will be favourites if a third team gets allocated two.    Women Oceania: Europe: One of Americas:  /  if US is ineligible due to their host quota, if the host quota gets reallocated then Canada will be in contention in the rankings Africa:   Asia: One of   Host: World Rankings: Combination of  (x1?)  (x1/2)  (x1/2), whichever doesn’t qualify out of  / ,  and  ? Final Qualification Tournament: One of above.  Universality: ?    is safe with two quotas between  it’ll be tough for whoever misses out of those three.   nevermind ,
