Coach Nikola Grbic is used to the fact that he often changes the composition of the Polish volleyball team. The situation is no different from the current European Championship. In the Friday match between the Poles and the Dutch, the Serb made a bet, in particular, on Tomas Fornal. The MVP of the 2022/23 season in the Plus League did not shine this time in the White-Red squad.
In the case of Tomasz Fornal, during his time as coach Nikola Grbic, he almost managed to get used to the responsible role of the owner of Jastrzembski Wengel. The volleyball player certainly has great potential, but so far he has not been fully embodied in a representative reality. In Friday’s match against the Netherlands at the European Championships, the groom changed after the first set and subsequently had only short episodes on the field.
Tomasz Fornal is disappointed with the advance of the White-Reds
Looking at the statistics of the Poles’ second match at the European Championship, starting with Fornal (along with Wilfredo León) simply did not stand the test. The host, the Plus League star, was also unlucky, because in the starting set Byalo-Chervoni certainly did not show such a level as in the second part of the match.
According to statistics, the groom played -2. What does it mean? Breaking down performance into simple odds, the volleyball player played well on the receiving end, but terrible on offense. Groom was taken six times, with a positive effect of 67 percent. The perfect party? Fornal here was calculated at 33 percent.
However, the attack was very bad. Groom recorded a zero round without completing any of his five attacks. In addition, as soon as the receiver was blocked, he also added one point to the “cap” of the opponent. In addition, for four visits to serve, Fornal did not have a single ace, and according to statistics, there were two direct errors in the player’s serve.
Kamil Semenyuk changed the volleyball player after the first set, remaining in the “six” until the end of the match. And the Poles with a score of 0:1 with Fornal reached the final 3:1 with Semenyuk. Although this is an unfair simplification, because everyone can have a bad day, but the great performances of volleyball player Jastrzembski Wengel - whether in Plus League or Champions League games - make it possible to demand something more with such a high sporting class.
The groom in the Polish national team is still a big mystery.
