Anderson was interviewed after the match and the announcer described how well the US was playing, how creative they were, how their offense was varied, etc. He was pouring on the compliments and asked Anderson how they do it. Anderson said, "Micah Christenson. He's the best setter in the world."
My god! Christenson is RIDICULOUS! Great job man. Also fantastic job to both teams. Love seeing these powerhouses play one another!
Shoji and Smith was part of the Polish team (Zaksa) that won the CEV. Smith even won the finals MVP. They are runner up in the Polish League. So playing against Poland gave them some sort of familiarity. But of course, the entire team is composed of well decorated players. Same with Poland. But in this game, US played their game plan well.
I mean it’s not like Poland’s got a complex game to plan against. They’re bigger than most, hit hard and serve well. You just have to be fundamentally better than them on the day.
its like bednorz and Christensen and Anderson, in zenit Kazan,
The star players are growing old, chill
7:10 that set from Christenson to Jendryk was absurd
Great chemistry. Muscle memory to these dudes😂 Chemistry is absolutely the single most valuable asset in team sports. USA and Japan seems to be on another level in this tournament. 🤙🏼👍🏼🙏🏼
my brain just cant comprehend how they managed to put that play together
@@natekrekeler2062 I think belief in one another that christenson can get the ball to Jendryk, and that Jendryk will be ready for the set
Yes, I agree❤
basic
This USA squad is so dialed in!!! Pure pleasure to watch. Playing as a team more than ever now. All the best!!! 👍
Darling Russell saved so many balls💙 He is one of the few hitters who can move so fast with such height
Kurek was having hard time penetrating the blockers of the USA. I love this first 6 of the USA especially Matt Anderson and Russel and Defalco. Micah is just on another level of a setter.
Its called growing old
@@akainu6010 Anderson, Smith and Holt are all "growing old" too (2-4 years older than Kurek) but we still see them performing on the same level if not better... I'm not saying age doesn't affect the player performance, it does, but using it as an excuse for under performed match sounds wrong
It's not entirely Kurek's fault. Both Polish setters were terrible in that match. The only thing worse than the setters was the crowd with the horns.
@@ShijirBat-Enkh ah tatatata some people have longer prime. And besides poland has beaten USA many times in the past already.
@@akainu6010but not in this game, though. Poland was humiliated here.
Congratulations team USA!👍👍👍 My favorite Aaron Russell😍😍
America is doing very well in both men and women this year.👍👏
I agree, but also hope the men team recruit new faces, like youngster likes woman team.
@@sreckolisinac3739Agree. Their women team has new players every year, even straight out of college, while their men team hasn't recruited anyone new in years. It's gonna be hard to find the replacement for Smith, Anderson and Holt.
@@RockAddicted7they have lots of talented players from the NCAA. Even some National teams have players who came from the NCAA. The reason probably there were few recruits is that few US players are playing Overseas (experience wise). Pay or talent fee is also one of the factors given that club teams can recruit easily from other countries with lower pay. It is not much of a Career for most of NCAA players that is why i really do hope US will have a professional league that will become as popular as other sport league there to accomodate their NCAA star players.
@@lukasloh2509 That's true but only for the men side. USA female players are always requested by every club team in Europe. I almost forgot, USA men team will have Gabi Garcia next year. They don't have to worry about Anderson's replacement (after the Olympics).
@@RockAddicted7 Isnt Jake Hanes who will replace Matt Anderson?
My favorite part of the game is the obvious tension between Defalco and Fornal 😂. Congrats USA 🎉
why? they are very similar players
They were giving stares to each other
Is Defalco straight? I smell something haha
@@glennmelecio Maybe you’re smelling your own arse
@@eduardroideAsseco Resovia (Defalco) and Jasztrebski Wegiel (Fornal) are rivals in the Polish Plusliga.
That bad faith crowd with the horns every time USA serves just makes me want to support USA and glad they won
I feel the same way. I like both the men's and women's Polish teams but I hate watching their games if there is an obnoxious Polish crowd. Those horns ruin the game for me.
I'd say it's typical for an european country. Additionally, Poland's got many volleyball fans. The situation in soccer, basketball and other sports looks the same
@@kaszagryczana2260 I have never seen this horrible behaviour by local fans in games played in Italy, France, Germany, the Netherlands or Belgium. And even if it was typical in Poland or in other sports, it is still unsportsmanlike behaviour.
@@catherineslater4438 Maybe you're right, and I'm wrong. I guess I'm just used to it living in Poland. So yeah, horrible if you say so, to me it's the norm. That doesn't make it right, ofcourse. I wouldn't make this much noise if I were there
@@catherineslater4438 yes. And you can see even Nederland team played at home the noise is just normal such as when games played in france, italia, usa, or belgium.
Poland and Turkey have the same horrible behavior in sports. noisy, booing, whistling, screaming too loud each seconds the opponent got the ball.
that's why im so excited seeing them beaten, except when played in asia. i will enjoy watching their game.
The brilliance of Micah 7:10…world class setting..cause who does this…🔥🥲
Love the way Team USA is playing this year. Fighting for every point, staying positive, and together. That’s what was missing at the Olympics and most of last year. Russell is the missing link, too. He’s such a good passer and a versatile attacker, and his defense today was awesome.
Yes Russel absence due to his injury played a crucial role in their dismall performance at the Olympics. But France’s Cinderella story is also inspiring.
@@lukasloh2509 As a fan of the sport yes, I loved watching France win the Olympics and VNL last year. This year, when the USA was knocked out at the World Championships, I rooted for Italy. I love the way Giannelli leads that team. And so far Team Japan has been the most fun to watch.
I completely agree with you! But I wonder... do you guys think DeFalco, despite being an amazing player, could also be a problem when it comes to some sorta teamwork-energy-a-team-needs-in-the-court? I tend to watch all the players reactions and every now and then I think he kinda overreacts and I honestly think it's not a healthy action. For instance, on 1:40 when Anderson gets blocked... from my perspective, his reaction was too much: while all the other teammates get together to huddle, he's from afar kinda angry haha.
@@brunofreire10yeah I noticed that too, Russell needs to pull him up to huddle. Not sure if he is angry about himself not passing the ball well or angry about Anderson getting blocked.
@@brunofreire10 That was my concern last year not just with TJ but even Micah sometimes. Someone would make a mistake or be slow to the ball and they’d get down on each other fast. I also hate it when TJ walks away from the huddle. But team chemistry seems way better so far this year and I notice more of an effort for the guys to come together after every point not more matter the outcome. Their jubilant post-match huddle after beating Poland was great to see. I’m optimistic and can’t wait to see them in person in Anaheim!
Congratulations USA 👏♥️🇺🇸
Those fcking horns lol
Congrats USA ! Everyone in US team worked with each other so well. Reminded me of
Team Japan. It's what a national team should be like that each member is the best in
the nation.
Still a good game for Poland! Big congratulations to Team USA! Hope to see them in the Finals against the Japanese team 🙏🏻
WHERE ARE THE POLAND - ITALY MATCH HIGHLIGHTS!!!!!!!??????
Amazing game! Holt was playing top notch volleyball! Glad to see he got to start! The whole team did amazing
3:56 fantastic twice dig by Zatorski 😲😲💪💪
Congratulations team USA!! Awesome job
Poland has been looking sluggish. Lots of service and hitting errors. Kurek was not himself, Leon got taken out he struggled. I like the Fornal/Bednorz lineup but I really wonder why Kochanowski was replaced with Huber. They just didn’t have their blocking game on. The US with Christensen and all their big guns is a great team. TJ had an amazing game, scoring machine. Congrats to the US, their offense just clicked.
Kurek was certainly himself . Remember human beings age . As any player ages, his competitiveness dropped in terms of physical aspects
@@liamlee8422 Is Poland still searching who will be the successor of Kurek as the main opposite spiker? Italy already got Romano as a successor of Zaytsev.
Gribc dont start even to build team yet . USA they already has a complete experienced team Grbic still hasn't decided what players he will build the team with and what he wants VNL game is not a priority either, it's just a preparation stage
@@liamlee8422 I hardly think Kurek is done. He’s making ton$$$ in Japan where he won the league title and was named best outside hitter.
I'd have to agree with you on this. There's something off with Poland during this game, just can't pin it. Their matches with USA in the past were intense, but this game USA really dominated them. Hmmm
USA has so many good middles!
Shoji definitely has to be MVP as Libero. He made insane saves. Matthew Anderson served very well, Cristhensen standing up as if he were on the beach, Defalco beautiful and lethal, Jendrick very well in the middle, the whole team put Poland on the ground. Go USA.❤❤❤❤❤❤
USA IS A TEAM TO BEAT!!! THEY'RE DEFINITELY A FINAL CONTENTER THIS YEARRR!
Finally, a US team I can believe in! Love the way they keep their composure and play one point at a time.
Lets go team USA. Job well done 👏
00:45 so many things happening 😂
Russell tripping by himself
Christenson pushing Jendryk so he can set the ball
Christenson blocking on the right, center, and left side of the net. 😅
Awesome dig by Shoji at 7:01! 👏🏼🏐
3:56 There aren't awesome by Zatorski and twice in a row? 😁😛
Poland dont need to worry about losing some games during preliminary rounds. They are already qualified to the finals as the host country. Probably the coach is testing which lineup has the best chemistry.
Disagree as polish man. There is a problem, they arent that happy about to game. Even when they winning
I can´t see Leon comfortable with the setter.. in fact, I never seen Leon so efective as he was in Zenit Kazan.
@@racielmendieta I heard Leon recently got surgery and not yet in 100% condition.
7:12 what a play between christenson and Jendryk
That was some of the best volleyball I’ve seen the US play in a while
really blowing horn every time the US was serving just fired up these players!! Great game for the US!!
Micah is 😮😮😮🫰🏼 the unsang hero Shoji 👏👏👏👏🇺🇸😍
3:58 Zatorski's two effortless digs.
I'm getting a headache just by watching this video. Can we ban the airhorns already? I can only imagine how annoying it must be for all the people in the arena, and especially for the athletes that are forced to play in such an environment
Its not that bad in person tbh. I was in the same stadium 2days ago. They are only used just before the serve, and when celebrating. Wasnt bothered by them, gives some atmosphere
No. It’s incredibly annoying, especially if your seats (that you paid for just like anyone else) is near or in front of some idiot with an obnoxious air horn. In an outdoor soccer stadium where the players are nearly a quarter mile from the tool with the air horn, MAYBE it is tolerable, but they never should be allowed indoors. Nobody should pay good money to have the eardrums assaulted in that manner.
De Fakco is Beast Congrats USA Last they also beat poland in Semi- finals
Can't wait Japan Vs Usa❤
crowd havin some serious issues with the USA team
У Польши связка ни какая, Леон был на высоте, когда играл за Казанский Зенит! Майки красавчик!
Can't wait for USA vs Japan 😳🤤
There isn't during the preliminary rounds.
For week 3, the two teams are on different cities.
me too. cant wait for their match by next month
Japan will win...
Hands down to the maestro, Micah Christenson. 🙇♀️
Poland is building a new team, the lack of focus and harmony was obvious. When you do silly mistakes when playing against USA, you pay cash.
Overall the trip is still long to the final.
Este partido está de candela 😊
What is the annoying noise during every USA serve??! Anyone else notice it? Sounds like a thousand kazoos 😂
Why there is no highlights from match Italy vs Poland ???
Dont cry . VNL is not important isnt it lol.
Adorei!!!
Defalco is amazing....wow
Finally we beat our bracket demons! Let's go USA!!!!
Thought it will be a close game. World #1 getting swept 😅
Good luck for your playing Volley ball Polandia
Dude, where is the real polish team? 🤔
top level volleyball. vnl 2023 is brilliant.
USA block was definitely present! Once USA starts running pipe w/Deflaco and Russell…just unfair lol 🤷🏽♂️
Why the commentator keeps calling Poland defending world champions? Wasn't it Italy that won the most recent world championships?
Because Poland from the last three world championships won two world championships and one vice-championship of the world and Polish clubs won the last 3 champions league titles
I can see the same result in the final today.
However, I am not sure Jeff Jendrik and Aaron Russel will play. Here, we see solid blocks from the duo. Micah Christenson was also involved in the blocking quite often to support Jendrik and Russel.
In the VNL last year, I have seen these 3 players formed a 3 blockers formation against oppositions. They are impressive in this aspect.
But, I think Maxwell Holt, David Smith, Thomas Jaescke, TJ de Falco with support by Micah can do the same thing.
How about that ,,same result" after 8 days? 🤣
@@piotrpot9630 hometurf advantage do exists I suppose.
2:17 'tight, just the way deFalco likes it' - pause
AFTER MICAH'S SEASON IN ZENIT KAZAN HE BECAME MORE FAST & BETTER THAN HIS PREVIOUS SELF(Even though he is the best setter in the world)
where's Semeniuk, Sliwka, Janusz, Bieniek? they made huge impact last VNL?
Semeniuk and Bieniek both were playing in Nagoi. Śliwka, Janusz, Kaczmarek and Popiwczuk are going to play next week :)
Congrats, USA 🇺🇸♥️
Came back to watch this after seeing that USA and Poland are facing off in the finals, and man that looked rough for Poland, so there’s hope for the US. Hoping they keep up the momentum from when they faced Italy
Poland is guaranteed promotion to the final tournament Vnl because it its the host and it can be seen that these matches are treated as training
This is false....they are not guaranteed anything. There are 16 teams in contention. The top eight go into the quarterfinals. If they finish 9th in the preliminary stage play then they are out.
We must watch it on the mute, because the noises are unbearable!!
Felicidades el mejor jugador Anderson
congrats to the Kings of Blocks 🎉🎉🎉
Superb USA, Congratulations! Keep blazing.
I don't recognize Poland, they play like a team that is somewhere 15, not 1 in the ranking and second in the world😔
I'm Polish and that's sad but true.
100% agree with you, its definitely not like Poland we used to know
They’re missing MBs Bieniek and Klos from Week 1 and their best setter Janusz. Having Semeniuk, Muzaj, Butryn and Sliwka on the bench wouldn’t be so bad either.
@@zelilee5312I'm not talking about their team, which is as strong as it is without those few standard ones, but I'm talking about their game, they're all good players, strong, trained, powerful, I don't recognize them in this VNL. Poland is strong and I believe that everyone can complement other players, what I have criticized Nikola since he started leading Serbia is that he is a good coach, but he does not continue and does not know how to shout when he needs to or to react to the guy by shouting, that by car etc. Poland MUST beat Italy tomorrow by any score.
@@amanda.a.France is constantly, if not always, in the top 5, then in the top 10 in the world, it is even much stronger than the top 10 and up to 7 national teams in the world and can even more than cope with all the strongest. But they don't always play in continuity, 3 competitions they play excellently, then one failure at the last World Cup, they were not in shape at all, and nobody in the French team is highly ranked by the volleyball public except Earvin, even though they play amazingly. It's a sport, the ball is round.
I was there! super great Polish audience and a lovely mood!
ANDERSON. RUSSELL. DEFALCO. CHRISTENSON. SHOJI. SMITH/HOLT/JENDRYK. ++JAESHCKE 💪💪💪
Didn't have Russell and Holt last year, and it's obvious how much of a difference that made.
Great serving & passing USA! Hitting on all cylinders.
Over and over, Christiansen shows what an asset he is. One of the best setters ever, but a phenomenal blocker too!
Poland didn't look like they were in top form. But when the USA serves and passes like that, it makes it much harder for any team.
@@royhenley2396huh? russell played last year
@@markjung9735 I thought he was injured.
As the host for the final round, hope Polish' coach is testing his team, essentially the setter. They need a better game creator!!
I hope that Janusz will be in better condition
Nice game!
O JEZUS MARIA ZDARZYŁA SIĘ AWARIA 😅😅😅
Someone needs to ban those noisemakers
Sorprende la facilidad con que usa ganó el partido 🤔
What knee brace do pros usually use?
Honestly, the fans of Poland were very annoyed. The sound they made in the arena was so frustrating to hear. Even when you watch this highlight video. I dont know why they should do this; to distract the server??? It is not the real fan spirit. it is unlike the voice of the crowd.
I'm Polish and I'm really sorry for these idiots... We - normal fans also find it annoying and completely unnecessary.
Kurek and leon grew old, the best(if i must say so) polish's blocking game wasnt as discipline as before, big congrats to usa and hope to see how poland overcome this season
Kurek is still a letal and effective player. Leon im not sure. May be it s time to replace him....i choice Schalpup..Buthryn*** en place of Leon😮
@@meninho3303 that is true kurek is still banging his attacks, but his game isnt as on point as before. And as for leon, he is prone to injuries and is getting older but he tried his best
Are you sure this was in Rotterdam, Netherlands cause it looks like they were playing in Poland. Gotta love those annoying horns 😁
W jakim kierunku zmierzamy...???
us team absolutely is very strong and we Turkish national team next year hope to win against usa team
I think the Poland setter is problem
YES
Indeed
Good job for EUA
เสียงกองเชียร์โปแลนด์น่ารังเกียจมาก😤😤😤
Wow USA!!👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽
No dzisiaj slaby mecz. Chłopaki do roboty, wierzę w was.
Kamil semeniuk, marcim Janus,bieniek, seharusnya ada di dalam permainan, Thomas fornal, bartos bednor Wilfredo Leon, bartos kurek cukup bagus memukulnya, tapi senter kurang bisa mengatasi serangan
leon is not himself anymore. hope he gets back to his usual beast self
7:09 😂👏🏽
The crowd can get real loud and distracting but you gotta luv it. I do not consider it disrespectful, they are just passionate about volleyball. I luv seeing great competition among great crowds. Its what the sports all about and it makes the games that much more immersive and exciting. It makes the wins that much more sweeter. Lets go USA, keep rockin it steady.
🎉🎉🎉The bothering horns (The vuvuzela) always disturb the USA team // The polish fans should be respectful for the opponent teams.❤
My baby Jendryk is here 😍😍😍
The horn from polish fans distracted their own players. They were the cause of their defeat.
Congratulations USA
Love seeing USA dominate like this.
1st defeat for Poland. Can't believ the reault...3-0 Poland vs USA.
Actually this is the second defeat of poland
@@nhicoroda96231st defeat WITH ENTIRE KEY PLAYERS... Ist defeat was without these key players.. 🤝
Congrats Team USA ❤
Кристенсен VS Бартош✌️🔥👍.
Tight, just the way defalco likes it ( ;) )
Parabéns Eua
