Holy sheet...those digs!

[@HansPeter-lx6qk]

What a great game. Insane defense work in the first set from both sides!

[@mathdeep]

These Swedish dudes have absolutely no competition at the moment. Just too good. They are showing a dominance that is on par or maybe even more impressive than when Mol-Sorum were crushing the scene. I would love to see Sweden-Norway in the Olympics final but with Mol recovering from a serious injury, I think it would be a no-contest...

[@karlsonjunior7006]

David's D is insane, the digs he is getting unbelievable, and the block is just a sold fence

[@lucaspirolli7448]

Yeah man. Even in windy conditions, which is absolutely terrible for their jump setting, they are still dominating by a lot. Hard to believe anybody can take their gold medal in the Olympics.

[@nealpobrien]

The Swedes changed the game, and they are so amazing on every level, but it's fair to say Germany is rising and did not play well. For as good as Hellvig was and is, Ehlers was not hitting or jumping well. While Beach Volleyball is hardly synonymous with Germany, with adjustments they could've done much better.

[@xcver]

@@nealpobrien really? On the world cup stage they are ranked 3th and 4th between women and men all time, in european championships 2nd and 1st all time and in 7 olympics where beachvolleyball was present got 2 gold and 1 bronze medal.

[@marekprchal4573]

@@nealpobrien the swedes didnt change the game. the game was changed for them. like 9/10 of their sets would be errors few years back. the game is completely different because fivb decided they wanted to make the game more 'spectacular' so they let these jump sets go through. for me as a former player its unwatchable

[@vml9453]

These two are aliens for sure! 🇸🇪

[@drehog]

💪💪💪 Starke Leistung im Turnier!!!

[@Jordan-tr8so]

Ahmans stabs in this game were crazy, and tell me how Hellvig is out blocking everyone at 6’4

[@froeliuus]

Blocking is not about height but reading, you can be 7 but keep blocking wrong direction or call and you will get zero ball. OFc you cant be 5 but ad long as you can put your hands out of the net and you are god at reading you can block anything. Even a 6.1 with nice jump can go over man net easily. That not to underestimate hellvig but he is a prof that skill>>>height so no excuses

[@Jordan-tr8so]

@@froeliuus Great points

[@tommiejohansson962]

Dont forget hes "only" 6.4 but got a really good jump. So hes still pretty big as a blocker

[@fobef]

@@froeliuus Yeah try that if you're 5"2

[@froeliuus]

@@fobef ofc, but if you are like even 6.0 6.1 you can perfectly block

[@memeworld494]

Probably the greatest first set I ve ever seen🎉

[@n0cigar78]

David Shaman took a massive dose of ayahuasca directly before this game allowing him to channel the volleyball gods through his bones. What a ridiculous performance

[@LearnBeachVolleyballFast]

😅😅😅😂

[@Charc0al15]

Awesome highlights thanks for posting

[@bankbranchprogram1226]

Early Olympics final that was. Have to give it to the Germans, they played very well. ❤

[@vml9453]

Young hollands will be on German place in final Paris game. Screen!

[@cowe-ox2et]

Good call😂

[@NicolasQGHits]

Os caras jogam demais!! 👏👏👏

[@RagnarLothbrok2222]

Ahman is EVERYWHERE. Sweden duo is looking unstoppable!

[@ncstudio333]

The MVP is definitely Wickler with that defense... Absolutely class!

[@SadDetonator]

You may have missed the energizer bunny on the other side of the net who dug absolutely every one of those ridiculous chasedowns.

[@ncstudio333]

@@SadDetonator No he's class too but I feel Wickler had the edge with defense here, especially cuz Hellvig was blocking well

[@SadDetonator]

@@ncstudio333 I can't argue against your feeling, but I also can't agree with you based on the above footage, despite the fact that I consider Wickler the best defender in the world on any regular day... Agree to disagree 😉

[@Alex.Ost.2001]

Ahman and Hellvig are just phenomenal, they excel in every part of the game, its ridiculous On another note, I noticed that the german team are both sporting a Bundeswehr-Tattoo an their arm - are they a sponsor? (check 8:24 for example) Ive never seen that before

[@TheOnlySirC]

Good game Sweden! 🏐

[@mattiasmattioli877]

Assisti a esse jogo.

[@michelle778]

Germany didn't play bad at all. But that was another level from Sweden. I hope we can enjoy many more matches of that quality!

[@SadDetonator]

Åhman and Hellvig simply running circles around the competition. They cover the court like two energizer bunnies on steroids.

[@JoghurtmitSahne]

To be honest Clemens and Nils look a bit exhausted, bcz of that 3 sets against Immers / Van de Velde. I think this is why this game is a difference in levels

[@3411Chad]

The Swedes just demolished everyone in this tournament; in a class by themselves.

[@coopersmith2837]

At this point it’s basically guarenteed who’s winning in Paris with Norway likely not to play

[@toni5309]

did they say they will not be playing?

[@lucaspirolli7448]

They are playing way better than anybody else by a lot. It is amazing.

[@coopersmith2837]

@@toni5309 no but mol is still recovering from his surgery if they do play it won’t be in the best condition

[@killboxsource7678]

@@coopersmith2837 well that aged poorly

[@matthiasjaschke1471]

Why does ehlers say "line" everytime wickler hits the ball? or is he saying something else?

[@nikosmix]

The passer is telling to the hitter where to hit as he can see better where is the defender placed right after the passer made his pass.

[@bluepawn]

Even in a Hurricane, the modern Beach volleyball wins again the old fashion and has been beach volleyball technics... as I said for more than 20 years... speed, 2nd touch-hit, setting far from the net, very low setting (even during wind), are the basic keys of the beach : to make the blocker running running and running (most of the time tall) = He is way too slow to play correctly when moving all the time = disturbing the blocker is the key and never ever set the ball very high as the BLOCK can REST, drink a coffee and TAKE HIS TIME.

[@froeliuus]

Yea exactely. Only thing maybe sometime high set close to the net are necessary for a tall spiker to actually spike, to use his max potential. Short set and far from net are good but not so much tu jump max and spike, but maybe you ment that that power game is intentionally gone

[@bluepawn]

@@froeliuus you're perfect right. Power hit must be present of course but against speed, 2nd touch hit, lots of technics and permanent vision of the opponent s position (set very low, you will watch them permanently: what are their live moves)... The p "Power hit" team will lose for ever. The very high setting would work of course for very tall players though... But on this level... There s always a tall block.

[@SadDetonator]

It will be interesting to see what adjustments future teams will bring to the scene based on these observations. The game sure is changing, and it is becoming more exciting to watch.
