Summer Paris 2024 - Volleyball

[SA HAWK]

Epic

that was fun.
I’m exhausted.

 

[Trojan90]

Game of the tournament so far for me. Sad to see the end of Japan and ‘the big show’ Nishida.

I have to be honest that I have been very lucky with some of the tickets I have had and the matches I've seen. I was at the Brasil vs Poland 5 setter and now this one. Heartbreak for Japan, incredible victory for Italia.

Enjoy. We are all living vicariously through you for these few weeks.

Ticked off a World Cup, so the Olympics sit firmly at #1 on my sporting bucket list. Went to the soccer in 2000 but not sure that counts.

Rough for Slovenia to win group and get Poland.
Bugger!

 

[matt_897]

the ace to save match point. holy crap.
we have ourselves a contest.

That’s right, that was an insane serve match point down

 

[samFFC]

France choked away that set. LONG way back now.

 

[Drummond]

I’m absolutely gutted for Japan. Up 2-0 and 24-21. They had it. The upset was theirs. You just knew when Italy took the 3rd they’d win the match. Japan still had chances in the 5th though.

 

[Trojan90]

Am all caught up finally. Germany unlucky, France won’t go down easily. Turkey China game was fun.

Ready now for my girls. Haven’t really been challenged yet, should win tonight as long as they’re switched on.

After it was 7-7, an 18-5 domination to round out the 2nd set.

The defense was impressive setting up chance after chance for Gabi and co to beat the Dominicans into submission

Gabi really is incredible. Brazil continue to look amazing. Italy and Brazil the two standouts for me.

She somehow floats through the air forever.

She somehow floats through the air forever.

And then unleashes pure destruction

 

[Trojan90]

Job done girls. Hit the showers and move onto the semis.

 

[samFFC]

Amazing work Clancy/Mariafe!
Previously undefeated, we Smashed them.
QF is another undefeated pair.

Playing for medals
One more win to play for gold!!

No clear favourites in the men’s comp.

Lets go Polska!

 

[Trojan90]

France peaking at the right time. Should be an awesome final.

Nervous for Brazilian girls tonight. USA like the French men, working into the tournament nicely and know how to win them.

 

[PoopingHindi]

not long till it starts. I’m gonna try to stay awake for this one.

the gold medal games are thankfully at 9pm Saturday and Sunday if I’m reading it right.

 

[The_Todd07]

Good fight back after a less than ideal start

 

[The_Todd07]

Damn it
First dropped set

 

[Trojan90]

Nervous first set. They really need to settle. Seen this script before.

 

[Trojan90]

**** yes. Gabi inserting herself now.

 

[The_Todd07]

All tied up

 

[The_Todd07]

Set 3 not going to plan
