Players from Iceland :thumbup:their celebration is truly beautiful :)

They are happy with every single point, that's the true meaning of sport :) and their fans are awesome, there are very few of them yet they create great atmosphere

Well, players from Iceland actually played better then I thought they would ;) I was fearing they will be on the same level as Algeria from last years World Cup, but especially in 2nd set they played pretty competetive volleyball, even managed to lead against the strongest team in the group for a bit :d

 

Now I am truly curious about the Level of Cypriot team :)

Poor Moldova was this close to achieving their first point at this qualification :( they lost 4th set 26-28.... still this is great result and beggining of tournament for them , as 4 years ago they only managed to get 3 points in a group with Slovenia, Hungary and Israel.

Pretty decent first set for :CYP which is a shame on us. We lost 15 points, but only because Cyprus' players seemed to lose their heads when they got us at 11-12...

25-17... we are playing against second-worst team of our group... Jesus Christ, they were leading 4-1, 8-7 until again they lost their heads in the middle of the set and that's what saved us. We will take 4th place in this group, after Serbia, Czech Republic and Slovakia...

3-8 for Cyprus in 3rd set. One of our commentators got almost silent and i cannot blame him...

25-15 in the third set for us. We won 3-0 but it was a dreadful performance and we won all sets only because Cyprus could not keep concentration after half of the sets and after leading for example 10-5 lost 7 points in a row. I fear the upcoming matches...

    • Ukraine has made progress recently and lost yesterday on penalties to the UK, but that still doesn't explain why the Italian team isn't making any progress. We are sitting in a lower division for 3 years and that's with a ban for Rus and Blr. New and great coaches are being brought in and it's not giving any results. 8-10 years ago we were regularly playing in the highest division, every 2 years and that was with a much stronger teams (Russia and Belarus were there). I don't know where the problem is.

    • Many things, probably they thought it is already over and the win will come itself... but also Nitra improved their play a lot, they outplayed us in physicality in the last 2 games, they won almost every duel. Was hard to watch. Anyway I am still persuated we will finish the job at home with success on Tuesday
    • If you look at their results this season and on the Super Series, it’s not really that surprising.    I’d consider them to be medal contenders. 
    • At one point it seemed we were making good progress in this sport, but in the past 1-2 years things seem to have hit a standstill..   Ivaylo Ivanov is still our only elite judoka, but he is passing 30. There were/are some promising youngsters, but they haven't been able to make a jump to the senior level. At this Euro we barely had any first round wins (not including Ivanov). In fencing and taekwondo the results are much more visible for us. 
    • yes, but that's only an (important) episode... I mean, what's up with your team more in general...it looks like they got the classic "fear to win", they're not as brilliant as they were in the early games of the series
    • after a few leagues ended well before the true climax, now we have both leagues from the good, old Czechoslovakia going to game #7    shame that both games will be at the exact same time
