We didn't need any more evidence that Brazilian volleyball has hit the bottom of the barrel, but still our women's team wants to make it absolutely sure. They barely won the South American title, but they still lost the match against Colombia. What a crazy competition where the loser of the match wins the title, but even with the title it's still a shameful day for Brazilian volleyball, for sure.

Men's european junior water polo championships concluded today in Malta. Serbia won the gold medal beating Greece (10-6) in the final.

Egomaniac coach wants to be more in the spotlight by turning into the protagonist of the game, comparing the sport to another one in which the play time is like 5% of the total and almost all players are ultra specialized tools who don't even have to think.

Did they, though? Edit: never mind, obviously the Canadians don't count.

Well done guys, another great success for this team. Gold medal will come one day, but at the end Italy was better, congrats to them. 😉🤗

Croatia and France first below the line 🥲. I believe if there was a normal Asian championship Croatia could have made it. But in the end own fault by losing to France in the crucial match. And I think that CRO and FRA are better teams than CZE and KAZ.

Congrats to both Italy and Slovenia. It's a dramatic final.

Italy european champions in both football and volleyball!

Campioni d'Europa

when Romano came in I thought what the hell they are expecting from guy who was playing in 2nd division not long time ago it turned out to be a genius sub by DeGiorgi looks like switching jobs in Lube and Italy NT with Blengini worked well for both of them Congrats to Italy and also well done to Slovenia for having an amazing tournament

We are, once again, on the top Only 1 month after the Tokyo's failure, with a youngster team, just wow. Congrats to Slovenia, I really like how they played and I really appreciate the match

Congrats Italy! What a year for them, two golds in volleyball EC, gold in Euro 2020, 5 athletics golds in Tokyo and win in Eurovision with rock song Also congrats Slovenia, silver medal is also very good result

No no no, there are some teams you just don't trash talk before the game is over and much less with one day of anticipation Still, you have guts, I'll give you that.

World Athletics really needs to put 'flawless organization' aside as a (too) important factor. You're just not going to get flawlessly organized events in places like Kenya, because every single year in every single sport we see events all over Africa having all kinds of organizational problems. However, in terms of sports quality and general feel and atmosphere, they're often absolutely amazing. The junior world championships in Nairobi a few years ago showed how badly they should have a senior worlds there, I've never seen a whole stadium party like that all day long, day after day. Best athletics event ever.
