Nobody in Ukraine expected that Beldium could win. So our team "was sent home" by the fans just after the game against Belgium.

Our coach:

 

To beat Italy, we need to play better in defense, and in attack be on the same level as them," the Argentine told Suspilne Sport. "But they are four-time world champions. They have a very big history. The Italian league is one of the best in the world."
 

"We have to give our best. If the Italians win — compliments to their coach. But I want to reassure people in Ukraine: we will give everything we possibly can."

I'm fear of this match, because failing to advance from the group stage will be Italy's worst result since 1974. And in the VNL was tough, only 3-2 for us. Italian team is out of form and I think this is the end of de Giorgi's coaching career. France's prospects for the Round of 16 also look very bad, but after the women's gold medal, I'm more relaxed. I think we need to change our coaching staff and start from begining in a new year.

Italia just too strong today. Romano and Bottolo were phenomenal, couldn't find a way to neutralize them for practically the whole match. Like a mentioned yesterday, our team is already a winner, noth

Both teams are weakened: you are missing Plotnicki and we are missing Lavia. This will likely be an ugly matchup between  two teams in very poor form.

You mean Plotnytskyi? :mumble:
 

Pretty sure he retired from the Ukrainian NT, only playing club volleyball now.

He is young, so nothing say nothing. I think that for a probably new coach in Ukraine, he should became in NT. Egonu also resigned for some months with NT Italy, becouse of our former coach- Davide Mazzanti.

:USA was up 2 sets to 0 over :CUB.  Cuba was up ~18-24 in the third, and the US came back with 5 straight points, but then Cuba did win the third.  US had to come back in the fourth, but eventually pulled it out.  Whew!  3-0 :USA!

 

And with :POR winning over :CUB, :POR moves on to the Elimination Round!

 

 

Next round:

:USA-:SLO, who will face winner of :POR-:BUL

Ok. De Gennaro is 38 and still play...

Oh it’s for sure doable for him to retire and return after a couple of years (or sooner, like Egonu), but I wouldn’t consider him to be “young” for volleyball standards (more like in the middle) :p

 

Yeah, Hoag is still playing for Canada at 33 (didn’t formally make an announcement, but I assumed he retired quietly), and he’s still swinging rockets like he did when he first started :p

 

What I’m trying to say is that I think with Plotnytskyi, he’s not absent from the squad in a sense of you know “big players that could make a significant impact” because well, he’s retired. With Lavia, he injured his hand and missed out on these Championships. 
 

But I realized since then that you didn’t know about him retiring, so… :p

      https://nypost.com/2026/01/31/sports/team-canada-skeleton-coach-joe-cecchini-speaks-out-after-american-katie-uhlaender-manipulation-claim/   Oh the drama....   Cecchini: “I don’t really wanna speak negatively about Katie, but Katie was not on the World Cup team. She wasn’t a top-tier athlete in that program anymore. She was at the end of her career. I would personally would rather race against Katie. She’s not as competitive as the other athletes,” he said. “It’s probably really unfair to say and not really where I want to go with this but that’s where we are with that.”   Uhlaender: “If I were Canada, I would be concerned in how this coach is representing the Olympic values for his country,” Uhlaender told Fox News Digital. “He hurt a whole field of athletes, all with dreams, and this sends the message that they don’t matter unless they are number one. All athletes matter, and we all deserve to compete fairly, with integrity, and respect. He did not respect anyone in that field. “This is not about my resume or how good the athletes were in the race. This is about the fact that he intentionally manipulated the competition to hurt myself and 13 other countries because he felt it necessary to eliminate all possibility. That is against the spirit of sport and not what the Olympic movement represents.”   Isn't it great when other people's dirty laundry is aired?  /sarcasm     (I was a little surprised to see NPR pick this up, but per this article, Uhlaender preemptively recorded the phone call after receiving a text from Cecchini that said he had 'bad news' for her.)

      Idea (that I don't want to mess with right now, but someone else can steal the idea): Could feed the docs from LA28 + Paris 2024 through AI and see what it says.  (Would just take downloading them, perhaps merging them for ease of upload, and passing it through.)

      Slowly going through the documents.   Looks like canoe slalom qualifiers will be a bit different. More kayak cross quotas which will let nations to essentially qualify two kayakers.

      How about we choose either Rome or Milano  I hate this timeline we have entered of multiple host cities / countries. The football World Cup became ludicrous, we don't need the Olympics to join them. At least not more than they already are.

      FIBA World Cup Qualifier March P.R.   This is my proposed Young Guns Developmental Roster. The FIBA World Cup Qualifier in P.R. is a throwaway tour- nament for Team USA after the Gold Medal Game debacle. This is the perfect environment to test the Young Guns to see who has it, who does not, and who needs more devel- opment. The 2026 FIBA World Cup in Berlin is the tuneup for 2028 in L.A. The game against Spain will answer many questions.   Betts     Center age: 22 Boston  Center age: 24 Brink     SF, F   age: 24 Stewart  F, PF  age: 32 Kiki Iriafen F     age: 22 Jackson SF       age: 24 Howard  SF, SG age: 26 CC         PG       age: 24 Paige     SG       age: 24 Young    SG, PG age: 28 Plum      SG, PG age: 32 Citron    SG         age: 22

      I'm also reminded as I know Canadians are painfully aware that if figures hadn't been a part of the 1984 Olympics, then Brian Orser would have won gold.  Hamilton could have finished 4th in the free skate that year and still beat Orser who finished 7th in the figures
