Olympic watch (2016 Rio news, qualifications, athletes)

[O-ZoNe]

iranians are mentally on of the weakest nations ever. even arabs are not like that. we lack talent and passion. americans/europeans/chinese/russians have all the winner mentality. iranians not. period

montakhab al iraqiyeh?

iran lost in 5 set, 1 point for iran, we have russia next, we can be top 4

No, Cuba is next. Then Egypt, then Russia.

Anyway, we got 1 point from this match, but we also got our confidence back. Our boys are officially in the Olympics now, as they proved tonight. And they deserve it.

As usual the team's engine started up a bit late, but if they show the determination they did during this match for the rest of the matches, we still have a chance. They need to keep this up.

thats the issue. people are proud of a defeat. who cares baba? people will remember victories and medals only. people wll forever talk about behdad salimi and hamid soorian. nobody will take about iran desered to win poland. dont you guys see that? ya bordan ya bakhtan!

[AIrani]

Confidence is important. Iranian players did well with Poland. They should take Cuba and Egypt seriously.

We should be happy with Iran vs. Poland game. It was a great volleyball.

Kaleh kali look man Iran came neck to neck with one of the best volleyball teams in the world. Even though we lost the game we got a point from the game which might make the difference between us going to the next round or not.

wa mesle hamishe ma aroom-o moadabim ama in "zefidpoosta" mara heywoon hesab mikonand.

some are happy with a defeat. i am not. poles can be one of the greatest, but if you have 2 matchballs you must play like germans do: calm, determined, and accurate especially.

I didnt see what happened at the end of game due to laggy stream. What happened?

[Narse]

amir,
what did they do? poles are famous for unsportsmanship!

Is that why Germany sucks at volleyball?

Most European teams are regarded as a practice match for Iran, apart from Italy, Russia, Poland and France.
