Lost to Macedonia.

One thing I'm confused about it is why Albania isn't entered into the other 2017 European Tournament that is in Poland?

We keep losing to them every time recently. We didn't qualify for the Euros in Poland.

The women will play today at 17:00 against Belaruss in Minsk.
Where is the talent coming from? I know we had a pretty strong volleyball program back in the day but I had no idea we had any decent players currently.

We lost 3:1 to Sweden. The final match is against Macedonia today at 18.00 . It depends how Azerbaijan vs Sweden ends but if Sweden Wins against Azerbaijan then we need to win against Macos, in that case we and Macedonia Qualify otherwise the Swedish would reach us with points and are ranked better head-to-head as we won 3:2 while they beat us yesterday 3:1 so +1 on them..
