    anybody watching the South American Championship final ? I'm sure I'm not the only one in this forum watching this
     
    a bit info for other users to know why this match is special, Brazil won this tournament 31 out of 32 times !! and the only time they didn't win, because they didn't participate !!
    both teams are here almost with A team , but both of them missing 2-3 star players (Bruno, Lucarelli, Wallace, De Checco, Conte, Sole). still this is a GREAT match, Argentina was leading 2-0 and something like 16-10 in 3rd set. they had 4-5 match points but Brazil came back somehow and stole the 3rd set 31-29. there was also a red card against Argentina at 22-21. from 22-20 to 23-20 it turned into 22-22 because of a dubious call.
     
    Argentina was flawless until some point in the 3rd set, but I think it will be like Brazil-Bulgaria in OQT.

    Literally 1 week ago they were heroes, but after losing against and our boys already get hated on by some people, that`s just sad  I still think they achieved something great, especially considering how big this sport is. I hope they won`t care about the haters and keep being awesome

    Our commentator just said something absolutely unbelievable ! Apparently yesterday in the match Austria-Belgium happened something unreal. Austria was losing 8-9 Belgum won another point but the score suddenly awarded 2 points for Belgum. Anybody, literally no one ine the arena noticed it, only after the match they found it, Austria submitted later an official protest, the organizers had to agree that this incredible mistake occured but sadly the match was finshed and nothing couldn´t be done anymore with this.
     
    Unbelievable, I mean there a lot of peoples, referees assisting and controlling everything in the match and no one even from the team itself noticed this

    I think your team has potential, today they played pretty good in the 1st and 3rd set against Bulgaria, which is a very strong team. Greece certainly lacks experience when it comes to playing at important tournaments, but has some talented players like Zoupanis or Protopsaltis. I think you should be able to take the 4th place and qualify from this group.

    Having multiple hosts leads to the need of pre-determined elimination bracket, because of the travel. And this gives some teams the chance to arrange their position in the group stage, depending on which path they prefer taking in the elimination rounds. And this has happened on multiple occasions in the last 10 years.
     
    I want the draw to happen after the group stage ends. Still have the first play the fourth and so on, but draw it after the matches have been played. Then have another open draw for the 1/4 with the 4 best placed teams from the group stage, which have made it there, be seeded against the other 4 and then make it a bracket to the final. Much more interesting and not that hard to do!

    Well, historically it's a volleyball city. They have been playing in first league for probably ever. It was a reasonable choice considering the size of the Arena (9-10K) and its history withe sport.
     
    It just shows the lack of popularity of volleyball in this country...

    Well, our boys played like there was no tommorow, but in the end was much stronger and deservedly won. This tournament is not over yet, we will fight for 5th to 8 th place and I hope we can get something more. Anyway, this was an amazing tournament, hardly anyone expected anything from this team, but they proved their worth. They have every reasonm to be proud.

    You may not know this, but here's an interesting story about Tijana Boskovic. She was born in Bosnia (Republica Srpska) and when she was junior Turkish federations and one club wanted to see her and her family in Turkey. They offered them citizenship and  great conditions ( it was a huge sum of money), BUT her father who is Serb rejected that.
