    A resounding failure for CSM Bucharest! Firea and Szabo's team collapsed in B »Culmea! Enter Pandele's team and ... also Szabo
    Article by Marian Ursescu

    CSM Bucharest, Romania's former women's volleyball champion, will be replaced in the first league by the Voluntari City team. A "business" that seems to be in the family, among the mayors.

    On the website of the Romanian Volleyball Federation appeared the composition of the teams that will start next season, both in the first league and in the second league.

    For women, in Division A2, the Eastern series, CSM Bucharest is the first team nominated. The vice-champion of Romania retired this season due to the club's financial problems, and CSM announced that he will not register the team in the second league either. Following the negotiations with the federation, however, it seems that there are premises that bring changes in this case. The general manager Gabriela Szabo is expected to leave on holiday, the only one who has to approve the registration in the second league.The SCM will bet, in this case, more on the juniors, having no immediate goals. Surprisingly, the CSM gave players, including juniors, the freedom to find their teams. Francisca Alupei (17 years old), one of the most talented players in the new wave, who had a contract with CSM Bucharest, arrived this summer at the Alba Blaj Volleyball champion.

    Voluntari in the first league!
    But the surprise comes in the first league, where the place of withdrawal of CSM Bucharest was taken by ... CSO Voluntari 2005! In other words, the team of the mayor of Bucharest, Gabriela Firea, comes out and enters the formation of the mayor of Voluntari, Florentin Pandele, nobody other than her husband.

    Moreover, the sports manager of Voluntari is Zsolt Gyongyossy, the husband of the general manager of CSM Bucharest, Gabriela Szabo!

    CSO Voluntari was invited by the Romanian Volleyball Federation to enter the first league, although it is only one year in the second stage, and in the debut season the team finished in 4th place out of 8 participating teams.

    5 teams in the second league
    After co-opting CSO Voluntari in the first women's league, Division A will have 12 teams in the next season. However, five of them were promoted from the second league: FC Arges, CSM Tg. Mureș from the Western series, CS Medgidia, Rapid București and now CSO Voluntari 2005 from the Eastern series.

    No money found!
    The management of CSM Bucharest decided this summer that out of the 5 teams that he had in team sports (girls and boys volleyball, handball girls and boys, rugby) to keep only handball. For the rest, no money was found after the club budget was reduced by 30%! The women's volleyball team was the most titled after the women's handball. The "Tigroaicele" from volleyball won the national title in 2018, participating in the Champions League groups. Two years earlier, in 2016, CSM had won the Challenge Cup, the third European trophy in value.

    "I have no connection with Voluntari anymore!"
    Zsolt Gyongyossy, the husband of the General Manager of CSM Bucharest, Gabriela Szabo, argues that since he was appointed State Undersecretary with responsibilities in the field of sports, he no longer holds any public office at Voluntari. "It was ethical and moral to give up all public functions," said the technician. CSO Voluntari acknowledges, however, that she was invited to Division A1 and as such will have girls volleyball teams in the first rank.

    VIDEO + PHOTO Spain and Argentina will face each other in the final of the World Basketball Championship »Veteran Luis Scola has written history in China
    GSP

    Spain and Argentina will face each other, at 3:00 pm on Sunday, in the final of the World Men's Basketball Championship.

    Argentina enters the history of basketball. The "cougars" produced a new surprise, after the elimination of the Serbs, andthey drew France in the semifinals, score 80-66. South Americans thus become the first 21st-century line-up to play a world tournament final without an NBA basketball player.

    The MVP of the semifinal was veteran Luis Scola (39 years). The former player from Houston, Phoenix, Indiana, Toronto or Brooklyn finished the game with 28 points, 13 rebounds and two assists. The school also holds the 2004 Olympic title, the bronze from the 2008 Olympics and the silver from the 2002 World Cup.

    SPAIN, DRAMATIC QUALIFICATION
    Spain came to the final after a confrontation with Australia which needed prolonged halves to establish the outcome. The 2006 champion won 95-88 (22-21,10-16, 19-18, 20-18, 9-9, 15-8), after a match in which the arbitration was vehemently challenged by the Australians and is at the second final at the CM. The man of the match for Spain was Marc Gasol, with 33 points.

    Herman Van Holsbeeck, former manager at Anderlecht, was arrested for questioning yesterday and had to spend the night in jail. He may have paid black money on transfers from football players. This morning he was again interrogated by the police.

    In the afternoon, he was brought before the examining magistrate. After the interrogation, he suspected him of forgery, money laundering, private corruption and the association of criminals. Van Holsbeeck does not have to go to jail, but must adhere to conditions. For example, he may not have contact with other suspects in the file. Van Holsbeeck is also not allowed to carry out financial transactions, unless these are necessary for his daily life. He himself denies everything.

    Christophe Henrotay
    It is the same investigation that previously also involved top football broker Christophe Henrotay and an employee.
