Speaking of European women's volleyball teams, most people are familiar with teams with outstanding achievements such as Russia, Serbia, Italy, the Netherlands, Turkey, Germany and Poland, or teams that have played more times in international volleyball matches. Even Belgium, a newly rising country, is estimated that few can call out all the main teams.
Therefore, taking advantage of the European qualifiers of the World Championships, I planed, picked, washed, re-edited and took out this series, which was released in the European edition of the VBOL Forum. As for this opening, I think it is necessary to start with Croatia, which once shone briefly. The players of this team are also 1 in my database.
Croatia's glory in the last century ended at the 2000 Sydney Olympic Games. They only finished ninth in the 0 1 European Championship, and even failed to reach the final in 2003. In order to save face, they recalled retired superstar Barbara Jelly at the European Championship in 2005. (Barbara Jarek) and the second biography "Maria Leigh Hertenstein" narrowly won the eighth place.
Croatia's performance in the following three European Championships in 2007, 09, 1 1 can almost be described as terrible, with only 14, 16, 13 respectively, that is, the basic team fell behind or came to the bottom, and went home early. Is there really no successor in Croatia? No, as a matter of fact, in recent years, there have been many powerful players in Croatia. However, volleyball is a poor event in Croatia, and the volleyball association is not very effective, which leads to the long-term unfixed lineup and many stars are unwilling to play for the national team.
Aunt Leto won the Champions League individual award on behalf of Fenerbahce.
Is Nata the first one? Osmok Crowe? Fans used to call her Aunt Leto. She is one year older than Barbara, and her height is only 1.84. However, her skills are comprehensive, her attack and defense are good, and she has won many honors at the club level, but she is unwilling to play for the national team after 2000. In addition to arranging Lenovo, it is also related to her emphasis on family and children. After all, the club has a long season, and the summer time should be reserved for family and physical recovery. After spending 20 13 seasons in Zurich, Leto chose to retire.
Of course, Leto belongs to the older generation, and many Mesozoic forces have emerged in Croatia in recent years. Among them, we have to mention the support of auxiliary attack Majapoljak (Perjak), Katarina Baron (Barron), Anna Gerbach's setter (Gorbatz), main attack Mia Djerkov (Yelkov) and Sang Ya Popovich? (Popovich) Senna U, the familiar main attack? Me? (Usic)。
