Poland was on fire but it was a great tournament to see all the way through.
Why were on fire?!. We were better. Simple.🇵🇱✌️
Poland is a powerhouse. I was able to watch them live against Japan in the PH Leg. They are so strong!
Czesto zastanawiam sie z kad Azjaci biora wysokich ludzi?. 🤣🤣🤣😘🤣
Their opposite was unconscious this match. Insane play for him.
Congrats team USA for silver medal 🥈
Looking forward to see you guys coming to Japan for OQT! (I hope I could get the ticket from the waiting list 🥲)
I watched this match both on VBTV with English commentary and U-Next with Japanese commentary, it was so fun the Japanese commentators gave a lot of compliments about DeFalco, I kinda laughed when they laughed saying "it's DeFalco again" 😁 one of the commentators was Fukuzawa, former Japanese national player.
Erik, how's your Polish doing? 😉 You've been a huge part of ZAKSA's foundation for 2 seasons now. Do you understand at least some of our language? Love to see you rock it more in the upcoming PlusLiga season! ❤
In sport, knowledge of local curses is essential :) Even the Polish chess grandmaster Paweł Teclaf, when he made a dramatic mistake at the end of the game during the blitz World Champ and fell off his chair (the video of this incident was a hit on the web), he shouted: ''Kur.. mać !''
@@krzysztofizdebski1223 Well, that's not exactly what I had in mind 😝
Cześć, kurwa, kurwa mać, jak sie masz, dowidzenia, ja pierdole, to cały alfabet polaka😀
I'm sure he knows at least ONE word. You know the one.
I think one of my all time favorite players to watch is Matt. DeFalco is working his way up my ranks with just how much better he’s gotten over the last couple of years
Eric, I just finished watching the final of you guys against Poland. I wanted you to win so bad, but I'm so pround of how hard you guys play and will keep cheering you guys on! Congrats on making the final and watching you all play is so awesome!
Straight out of the gate and DeFalco being a defense monster
it was a pleasure to watch this match in person!! You did amazing, congrats
ya that was such a great finale! greetings from Poland
To był zajebisty mecz
Finally!...though it must have been hectic for you! Hope you are having a good rest there. Thank you always for your hard works. I watched this game in midnight via BVTV. Glad to see you enjoy friendly rivalry with them yet I do hope you have the best of luck next time!!
Thanks, Erik, and congrats team USA for the silver. Would love your analysis, too, of Japan vs Italy.
Congrats Team USA on Silver! Win for P in Poland was great for the sport all around We love you brah thanks the vid, ALOHA!!
I always loved and supported team USA since ever and I will always forever. Thanks and love your youtube channel great libero Eric. Congratulations bagging the silver.
I cheered so much for you guys during this final. You had such a great tournament but in this game you werent playing your best. Poland was on fire. Hugs from 🇧🇷
You play how the opponent lets you.
your reactions are excellent👍🏽
Just found your channel, greetings from Poland, hope we can face each other in the Olympics finals!
It was great to live on RUclips and watch your reaction. Go USA!
Uwielbiam ogladac mecze Naszych Chłopków z USA 😍, zawsze na poziomie i fair play ❤POLSKA BIAŁO CZERWONI 💪💪❤❤ Erik👏
And I don't like watching matches between Poland and the USA, because the Yankees play every match with the same commitment and the Poles only play some matches for the highest stake at 100%. If Polish volleyball players play the match against the USA only at 80% or without faith in victory as a year ago in the VNL semi-final, they get a 0-3 thud. When an American sings an anthem with his hand on his heart, it is not just an empty theatrical gesture. That's why every match against the Americans must be approached as a match for life. And our volleyball players sometimes have a problem with that. Hence the humiliating 0-3 defeat, sometimes.
This was a good match! You guys had a great tourney!❤
Great match for Poland
This set was kinda hard to watch as a fan from Poland haha imagine being up 16:12 and then losing the set. But always fun to watch you play against your ZAKSA teammates.
This was great game!😊
You guys played great volleyball. Hope to see you again in Anaheim next year. We were so happy to meet you there. Btw, you mentioned when we met that you’ll be playing some summer tournaments. When and where is the next tournament?
Also, you look good and relaxed in this video.
Take care and so proud of the whole team!!!
loved this match! I watched it live and it was some amazing volleyball. one thing I was missing was USA’s iconic energyyy, for the Olympic gold medal match better bring way better energy haha 😉😉 even though the outcome of the match, it was amazing to watch such amazing players as a young player myself, team USA has a very strong team and a very strong future. sometimes it’s just a game of momentum and especially with Polands amazing cheering. amazing job Erik can’t wait to see you play even more
I hope next year will be the Gold medal year for you guys whether it's VNL or Olympics. I hope you post more behind the scenes vlogs for the qualifiers later this year.
Vnl was so fun to watch this year! So glad there is volleyball league outside the Olympics now
Hi Erik, nice to see you again, love this match. go USA
Dang, Erik, I have been waiting for your comments on the final like a frog waits for rain.
Even though this didn’t go team usa’s way it was still such a fun match and a fun tournament. I saw one of the games live and it was literally the coolest experience of my life so thank you for that team usa ❤️. I love you guys so much
I was very impressed with TJ Defalco’s performance both defense and offense. I just simply love him❤
The Polish serve at 23-23 was actually insane! To even make that a playable pass was wild too!
I've been at the NL - POL match and noticed Poland playing a lot of their players who I considered not the starting 6. What's your thoughts on coaches doing that?
Polands so deep there bench could probably make the playoffs in a tournament like this. Having 6 players start every game in a tournament is going to wear down that player a lot, so they want to rest there starting 6 whenever possible and tbh No hate To NL but Poland is WAY better there's not really a fear of losing even with the bench. one of the Reasons USA Got so far in the Tournament is because of how good Matt Anderson was in the Quarters and Semis, but when it came time for the Finals He was unfortunately not as good most likely because of how much he Played. Hope this Helped.
@@nathanaeldykstra5004 Don't get me wrong, I agree with Poland being the better team. The NL team lacks having more than one 'star' player in my opinion, where as Poland has plenty. It was just odd seeing them make it go to five sets when I think they could've taken it in a quicker fashion.
I thought it was about giving the 'bench' players more game rhythm so they will be in playing shape in case the team needs help aside the strongest six.
As for the USA team I wanna also credit Defalco, man really stepped up his game big time! Not to mention the middles doing wonders. With the current pace of the game it always baffles me how they get double and triple blocks in game..
@@nathanaeldykstra5004 Like that you mentioned Matt. They need really good opposites to fill in for Matt in case he has a bad game. Unfortunately, the backup opposites are just not that good.
How can you not love watching Erik? I think its impossible really.
Congratulations so happy for you, one day I hope to see you guys play against Japan
Nice video :)
Always support you and USA team 🎉❤
Hey Erik, congrats on getting 2nd! First time watching Nations League and was fun to watch your and Japans games! Maybe you could react to some of the Japan games? Cheers!
kaczmarek is a beast
Thanks but would be interested to get an analysis of the sets you lost too. What are the mental things you are doing if you are down? How to certain players on your team react? Do they push and lift spirits or do they get angry and aggressive?
Hello idol . Your Fan from the Philippines. 😊😊😊
What do you think about Zatorski getting an MVP award for the tournament? I am from Poland and for me it was a kind of shocker 🎉
it was still a great campaign for the USA Men's team. Thank god we have three solid OHs now. Just need a second OP - give Matty some rest please. Erik, your MVP/dream team recognition is also well deserved!
Your Filipino fans were rooting for you all as the winner for gold.. hope to see your team at the VNL 2024 in the Philippines.
Wow, we're jumping right to the end this time.
I've never played volleyball, but as somebody with knee issues (yay gymnastics) I'm in physical pain every time I see these, especially when there are digs in which the defender leans pretty far to one side (tell me if there's a shorter name for those I know nothing lol). But that was a really awesome set, especially at the end when it was so close! just one question: do volleyball players have bad posture? like, you're always supposed to have your shoulders over for passing, so does that also translate to your normal posture?
we Love You and we know how You love Pol
hope to see you guys meet again in Paris 2024 gold medal match! 🤩
Pozdrowienia z Warszawy dla Erka .♥♥♥
ZAKSA POWER🐐🤝
Hi Erik! Do you have any tips for receiving floating/super floating serves? Thank you in advance!
Will there be “how to read a hitter/blocker” videos in the future?
Japan vs Italy bronze or Japan vs Brazil week 2 please!
I'm certainly expecting that!
It was a good game
USA are on fireeee like u guys are all monster and titans during the game!! compared in training cuz u guys always have fun reallly love iiiiit whooo!!♥️♥️
Did anyone notice that Erik looks so much different when the camera is inverted or is that just me❤❤❤
Erik where are you ?we miss you
I am glad that the best libero in the world and one of the three best MB players in the world play for ZAKSA 🔥
Initially, I was slightly meh to see you chose 2nd set to cover here but in the end - being Poland's fan - it was actually valuable to scrutinize play-by-play this pretty massive choke we've committed. Great effort from the USA team to come back from 16-12 down, though!
you should do one of these videos for that crazy long set against argentina
You are the best libero of the VNL
Hi erik! Could you put up any practices of micahs and josh for us setters? Ty and good luck
I must admit the US aren't my favourite team. But, I've been Kędzierzyn's fan basically since they reached the CL final for the first time a bit more than twenty years ago. As I live abroad, obviously I don't have many opportunities to see them live, but I saw the Ljubljana final last year, the Trentino quarterfinal and Torino final this year. I am happy to have Eric Shoji in the club. And David Smith, too.
It's quite interesting to see that game analysed from the American perspective.
How much did Speraw use you and David in the scouting report?
Lucasz Kaczamarek played so well.
he know how to speak English?
another amazing video, can we get a new Japan reaction video on this year VNL?
Mecz był bardzo dobry , obie drużyny grały na wysokim poziomie . Nie podobało mi się zachowanie drużyny Amerykańskiej przy dekoracji , trudno im się pogodzić z tym ze nie wygrali i okazywali swoje lekceważenie .
Dokładnie, bardzo źle to wyglądało
Just curious what’s up with different color shirts? Leon had a different jersey on
🔥🔥🔥
I hope to see you react also to Japan vs Italy battle for bronze! ❤
David Smith is the best middle blocker in the world right now, then, there is some empty space and comes Kochanowski with his fast hand.
Any tips for Liberia trying to improve with positioning
I hope next year VNL will also bring team USA Here in Philippines to play...
I am a bit sad when you lose but still, I love you all guys cheering team USA since the 2016 Rio Olympics
I just Love USA for volleyball and Japan too!
Congratulations USA silver medal ! We love you ❤️ 🇵🇱❤️🇺🇸
No way you were ranked 6 before the tournament. As a Polish fan I get really anxious when we get to play USA, I think it is like the top 3 threat besides France and Italy (used to be Brazil and Russia but Russia is out lol. And Brazil kinda can not win vs Poland nowadays, dont know why).
Plz share a link to watch full match ..final ..poland vs usa ...
USA is always strong. It's always a pleasure to watch our team to play with you guys.
🔥👍
How you got the back side view video, I already purchase volleyball tv subscription but they are providing only side view but I need back view video for my research purposes
Congrats on the amazing tournament you had!! Can you also react to the womens final it was also amazing
Argentina vs USA and Argentina vs Japan were exciting matches, too!
Brazil v Japan was too but why wasn’t Leal playing ?
@@snaz388 yes!. I'm not sure but I assume he had a rest as some leading players don't show up until the third or the final round in VLN.
Dave Smith ages like fine wine 🍷
hahaha, agreed. Smith just seems so reliable
when will there be a video about the pass guide from maich
Where does he find the match filmed from this angle?
Erick I watched live from my heart I have to say. That this match the team did not have any energy, looked tired, just did not feel as though they had any fight. After loosing first set that they should not have it just felt like they were done.
Mattie really just fell off in the second set, that being said still very Happy you guys got silver 🥈. Climb up to raking #2. Ladies finishing fourth are one point behind Turkey #1 #2.
❤
Poland the best. !!!!
The difference between the USA team and Poland was that USA played top volleyball from the very beginning of the tournament whereas Poland with each round was getting better and got top form on the final.
11:05 Eric, where have you been? haha... You're nice person. Regards
congrats team USA!!!
I'm relatively new to watching volleyball, and I know the libero wears the different jersey, but why did Poland have a second player wearing a different jersey?
It is for the equal jersey project that stands with equality between men and women
What wqs up woth the poland jerseys?
Hey Erik, could you react to a Footvoley match? (Futevolei in portuguese) Its one of the most popular sports in Brazil right now
I think you won this set because Poland wasn't ready for Aaron Russell to play and I didn't know why Grbić change Fornal for Leon in moment when Leon could nice serve
when is the next video Erik, we miss u..
Could anybody tell me how to watch this baseline view?
why is their 3 different strips at 5:01 cause they both aren't lebero cause one is hitting.
Why were there 3 diff jerseys on the Polish side?
