ngapeth is just one of those players that, when you see them play, looks like he doesnt care at ALL ab being on court. THATS how effortless his skill is, it's truly remarkable

Ngapeth is from my city in france, a small one. He is from one of the district that is known to be the "hood" of Poitiers. And some people from this town see him as someone with a high ego, and a prick somehow. That's funny, because when you know how he is seen in international volleyball, he is an incredible player. I'm happy to see how people from other countries consider him ! He truly came from the bottom to the top !

Watching this reminds me just how much of a machine France was in that match. They definitely earned it.

As a french guy and supporter of France, i'm happy to see the match from your point of view ! You have a great team, and I love your work as a libero and youtuber! Can't wait to see our teams facing each other again !

YES! Finally you are reacting to a match with France. Wierd that you havent done that sooner. They are so good at defense.

This was the most exciting volleyball game I've ever seen. Incredible

i love erik shoji

I love it how he can't help but root for USA at all points even though is not live and he knows the final result ahhahaha

Great way to analyze your own plays! Can't have W's without the L's! 👏

Post-Toyko, Team USA is on a positive trajectory. They came so close but fell short on just a couple of missed serve receptions and errors in two epic 5th sets this season (here against France and then against Poland at the World Championships). But I love the way this team played and fought and can't wait to see them go for gold in Paris. (Also despite a few errors this match, having Aaron Russell back has been huge!)

I've been waiting for this one! 🇫🇷🇺🇲 Thank you, Erik! 🤩

Thanks for your part in giving the viewers a great final match to watch.

I love how you started a little bit subdued/tired, and then got so fired up by the end of the set! It's great to see this kind of love for the game ☺

watched this match in person! lost my voice cheering for you guys HAHAHAHAH been waiting for you to cover this match

You know what Erik, at the beginning of the third set, the FIVB commentator Clayton was intrigued by the opposite switch in Team USA. He said he would be eager to see whether it was a decisive and magical switch like the unexpected Muserskiy sub for Team Russia in the London Olympics final. What's more interesting is that the commentator of that great comeback was Clayton himself, so I really hoped TJ could step out to turn the whole thing around. The result was a pity but you guys really put up a fight, and I do believe Speraw was really bold to make such a choice. Good luck for the club plays.

I asked in your last video when you were practicing to have more analysis of positioning. And here you are first play breaking it down. Thank you!!

I saw this game. When France won two sets, I didn't think America would come back and win two more sets. It's a pity that America lost in the game. It was a very interesting game and DiFalco, Christian Son and you were great. But I hope Iran will win American football after losing very badly to England. Greetings from Iran.

congrats to the USA team getting to the finals. I think I only saw the highlights of the game but thought it was well fought. thanks for the analysis

this match with france was incredible. it seemed like a rough start but you guys really picked it up!

Loved this match Erik, what a fight back. Speraw almost pulls an Alekno. I remember one of my coaches saying sometimes you just want the best players on the court, even if they are not in their normal position. Though I think this holds more for the amateur level than at the top. But hey! Ebadipour just played middle for Milano and they almost beat Piacenza in 5, so it happens. Garrett played the best I have ever seen him in this match - some of his hits were epic. TJ did great coming in at Opposite. Aaron had one heck of a summer, so good to watch!

This was the day I became a fan of the USA men's national team. France came in so strong in the first couple of sets I was sure this would be a 3x0, y'all's fight in the third and fourth sets was a beautiful thing to watch and truly a masterclass to any other team on how to take back a seemingly hopeless game. Anyway, despite the loss, congratulations on a beautiful match!

You guys plays so well in this VNL was really hoping you could pull it off. Overall a great tournament for you guys. Was waiting on this reaction, tough loss.

Great recap! Your reaction on that ace 😂

The match definitely had its up and downs. Watched it live. Thought the comeback was going to happen in 3 straight. But a silver is a great finish. Looking forward to next year.

I remember that for the first time ever, waking up around 2-3am in the morning watching it live, and it was truly exilhirating!

Love this dude.

I'm french so i was really happy when you said congratulations !

i still can't believe i have a volleyball from this game sitting on my desk, signed by players from France, because i won the trivia game from between the break between the first and second set. it was an amazing game to watch!

Eric, você tinha que comentar a reta final do segundo set e o terceiro set que foi sensacional!!!!!!

i love ur vids

While you were freaking out abt the pass I was freaking out about the setters eye work 😭😭that ball over the left shoulder is always brutal for me

4:57 - the serve was so fast I could see two balls during the pause!

Looks like a lot of chatter through the net from the France side in this set

I see Erik Shoji's video. I click. No matter how late the notification comes up.

The semi's vs. Poland had similar issues. They were bombing serves and USA had trouble fighting them off and at least putting it in play. Easier said than done I'm sure but I would say it's definitely USA's weakness. USA has top tier defense with you behind the blocks, great offense run by the best setter Micah, and great athletic hitters. Just need that serve receive! lol

Thank you and happy thanksgiving! To be honest I’m not sure! Sorry! Maybe you have some suggestions?

u r the best libero in world

what was the main improvement that you saw in the US team that led you guys into reaching finals this year? (and such a massive improvement too in a short amount of time! especially if you compare the team's placing the year before in VNL) did something in the system change, was it something that newer additions to the team brought to the table or was it simply bc there was more time to practice since the pandemic wasn't affecting scheduling as much? manifesting that VNL comes back to the PH so i can see you play 🙏

When do you play at 5 vs 6 and who makes that call? Is it a decision made during the serve based on the opponents offense lineup or does speraw make that call?
