chrison- you're right but we believe in our guys
as did the european championship in 2009, but that Zagumny
It could seem weird that an Italian is telling you to trust in your team, but I don't like at all when results are taking for garanted... In volleyball everything it's possible. Did someone expected in 2007 that Spain would have won? ?
Personally I think we are strong, but we have to play very well vs Poland and it's not obvious that we will manage to do it. And that may be won't even be enough to grab the victory, who knows?
Of course I trust my guys, I do think they can win this match, but one thing is saying "they CAN" (I think both Poland and Italy can), another is saying "they WILL" (may be it's possible to say that about Russia... but not about Italy, imo).
Why are you so pesimistic? I guess that Itaaly would have veeery hard task.
We have Kubiak instead of Bąkiewicz, Igła is in great form, Możdżonek started to attack, Kurek is more stable then before (reception, service). But I think that Wlazły would be the most needed player now.
For me the chance of victory are 70 Italy and 30 Poland... if the Poland win they are fenomenal!
They are my second favorite team after ours.
I also think that our guys have a hazy approach to the match: they haven't been able to play a single match leading the set from the beginning. Against Belgium and Finland you can afford it, but against Poland I've some doubts. I bet will be a 3-2 or 2-3 with so much errors from both. Anyway, let the best win! ?
Good luck the best ?
btw, I'll be courious to see the bookmakers "opinions" ?
So chanses: 70 to 30 for Italy
I would say that the chances are 60 to 40 for Italy, but as always I count for Poland and after the match I want to say: "Arrivederci Ragazzi" ?
And I want to thank Poland, that we will play in the next ECH ? many thanks and good luck
saku- you're right .Igła despite age is amazing
World class ?
let the best win! !?
For us is, like someone said, and appointment to the history of italian volleyball...
Go guys, go! <3
See u later... when will have already known the result of Ita-Pol?
Good luck to everybody guys.
Can't wait for Russia - Serbia!!!
I hope You win in the final. I won't say arrivederci, but I say: FORZA RAGAZZI !!!
P.S. On tomorrow I'll cheer for Poland,too! ?
we don't defend title
Guuuuys I'm so proud of youuuuu!!!
Tomorrow we will need to play even better, I will expect a bit more by Zaytsev and a defintly more from Birarelli. In general We can block more than this, but today I'm really glad for our serve!!
I expected smth more from Poland in general, btw Jarosz played better than usually, Igla was very good too, Modzoneck (sorry if misspelled!) was great, I expected smth more from Kurek, but as casamodena said may be Zygadlo could have used a bit more... but afterall doesn't see to me that Zygadlo didn't play well.
And at last, damn if I was waiting for that moment and damn if we deserve it!!!!!!
=)
@redman, I love it --> "The best vs the best or Miljkovic vs Mikhaylov" !!!
In my "dream team" they are my two opposite ?
look every set to 20 point was equal,after that border italy served 2 tmies very good and it was everthing, Poland couldn't do nothing with this
We are defintly going to need it tomorrow...
The 4th set was so vital and Butko(in my opinion) screwed them.Anyway,as much as I would have loved to see Russia in the final('cause I love their team this year),Serbia's team totally deserved it and that result is gonna make for a great final day of the ECH 2011 - Russia - Poland and Serbia - Italy ?
Congrats to Serbia,not they were better than us,but WE were worse then them.
I'm totally dissapointed and not gonna watch tomorrow's game.
It was block. not finger, all the hand! ;/ - Bela Hobor - one of the best referees
