Serbia proved its dominance of world water polo in 2014 with a clean sweep of the major events, beating Hungary 11-9 in a penalty shootout on the sixth day of the FINA Men’s Water Polo World Cup at Almaty’s Central Swimming Pool today.
For the third time this year, Serbia beat Hungary in a gold-medal final after the June FINA World League Super Final in Dubai, UAE, and the July European Championships in Budapest, Hungary. The victory was the third time Serbia has reached the top step on the podium after winning as Serbia & Montenegro in Budapest in 2006 and as Serbia in Oradeo, Romania in 2010. Much of the success of Serbia was put down to goalkeeper Stefan Zivodinovic , whose vital saves in the dying moments of the final typified his drive, determination and blocking skills. For Hungary it was a fourth silver medal to go with its three gold and two bronzes at World Cups — the most medals of any country since the first edition in 1979. Hungary’s last victory was in 1999 in Sydney, Australia at the start of its magnificent run that led to three consecutive Olympic titles. Hungary led most of the match and was only inside the final two minutes that Serbia drew level to force the penalty shootout and win it 4-2 for ultimate success in Almaty. Hungarian captain Daniel Varga was adjudged the best player in the tournament, as voted by the coaches, so dangerous an opponent he was.
In the bronze-medal final, Croatia added to its lone silver achieved in Oradeo last time out, beating United States of America 8-6. For the USA, it was not to be a first bronze medal, following golds in 1991 in Barcelona, Spain and 1997 in Athens, Greece. It also won two silvers — in 1979 in Belgrade, Yugoslavia and 1985 in Duisberg, Germany. USA’s Jesse Smith was named the best defender and teammate Bret Bonnani amassed the highest number of goals with 13. Australia, whose previous best at World Cups was a bronze medal in 1993, took out fifth place with a well-controlled 12-6 victory over Kazakhstan, who upset Montenegro the day before. It was Kazakhstan’s first visit to the World Cup. Montenegro, so disappointing in Almaty, had to settle for seventh place, beating South Africa, another World Cup newcomer, 13-10. Earlier in the week Montenegro beat South Africa 12-4, so it showed how much the African qualifier improved during the week. From the tournament, four teams qualified for the 2015 FINA World Championships. As Serbia and Hungary had qualified from the FINA World League, the next four teams gained a spot for Kazan — Croatia, USA, Australia and Kazakhstan.
Working the score bench during the week was former international referee Vladimir Prikhodko (KAZ), who refereed the 1999 men’s World Cup final in Sydney. Among his many other appointments, he also controlled the 1996 Olympic Games men’s final in Atlanta, USA, the 2000 Olympic women’s final in Sydney and the final of the men’s FINA World Championship in Rome, Italy in 1994.

Schedule and results

Sunday, 24 August - final round

South Africa (L17) vs. Montenegro (L18) 10-13 (2-3, 1-3, 4-4, 3-3) - (7th/8th place)
SOUTH AFRICA: Dwayne Flatscher, Etienne Le Roux (2), Devon Card (1), Ignardus Badenhorst (2), Nicholas Rodda, Joao Marco De Carvalho (1), Lodewyk Rabie (1), Jared Wingate-Pearse, Dean Whyte, Pierre Le Roux (3), Christopher Baker, Nicholas Hock, Julian Lewis. Head Coach: Paul Martin.

MONTENEGRO: Dejan Lazovic, Marko Vukmirovic, Nikola Markovic (1), Stefan Vidovic (1), Darko Brguljan, Bogdan Durdic, Dorde Bulatovic (2), Jovan Saric (4), Radovan Latinovic, Nikola Murisic (3), Filip Klikovac, Uros Cuckovic (2), Slaven Kandic. Head Coach: Ranko Perovic.

Montenegro gained its second win of the week and they were both against South Africa. Montenegro won the first encounter in the rounds 12-4. While South Africa seemed to improve with each match, Montenegro has had a patchy week and needed to save face with victory today. South Africa showed its best attacking play of the week and opened through Etienne Le Roux from the top right. Montenegro went 2-1 up and Etienne Le Roux equalised. However, Nikola Murisic, off the near post, converted extra-man attack for 3-2 by quarter time. Jovan Saric scored twice, Uros Cuckovic added a second and the match was at 6-2. Radovan Latinovic was sent for disrespect at 5:28 in the second quarter and left the pool deck. Joao Marco De Carvalho lifted South Africa to within three at 5:06 and there were no more goals for the half. The third period was exciting for the number of goals and the fact that it was squared at 4-4. Pierre Le Roux scored his first and second and Saric netted his third for Montenegro. Both teams scored a centre-forward goal — a rarity at this event — to close the quarter at 10-7. Murisic received a clean pass cross-cage to tip in for 11-7 in the fourth quarter and Pierre Le Roux responded with a high-left shot at the other end for his third goal. Just like he did against South Africa earlier in the tournament, Saric scored his fourth goal on extra for 12-8 and ninth for the tournament. Badenhorst scored his second with a backhander from two metres and Murisic netted a third at 2:23. The final score belonged to South Africa when Devon Card tipped in an angled pass to two metres for double figures. South Africa scored just nine goals in the five lead-up matches, so to manage 10 in the last day — and against Montenegro — was most commendable.



Australia (W17) vs. Kazakhstan (W18) 12-6 (1-1, 5-2, 4-2, 2-1) - (5th/6th place)
AUSTRALIA: James Clark, Richard Campbell, George Ford, John Cotterill (4), Nathan Power, Jarrod Gilchrist (1), Aidan Roach (3), Aaron Younger (3), Lachlan Edwards, Tyler Martin, Mitchell Emery (1), Blake Edwards, Edward Slade, James Stanton. Head Coach: Elvis Fatovic.

KAZAKHSTAN: Makhmetov Madikhen, Sergey Gubarev, Yevgeniy Medvedev, Roman Pilipenko (1), Vladimir Ushakov, Alexey Shmider, Murat Shakenov, Anton Koliadenko (1), Rustam Ukumanov (2), Mikhail Ruday (1), Ravil Manafov (1), Branko Pekovich, Valeriy Shlemov. Head Coach: Sergey Drozdov.

Australia played a controlled match against a potentially potent Kazakhstan, fresh from qualifying for next year’s FINA World Championships in Russia. Playing without a renowned centre forward, worked for extra-man chances and conversions while taking good options. Kazakhstan was not allowed to play at the intensity of the day before. Both teams took time to settle into the match and it was not until 1:18 that Anton Koliadenko blasted one in from the top for Kazakhstan. At 0:28, John Cotterill converted extra man at his second attempt of the phase. He opened the second quarter from deep left and a minute later Jarrod Gilchrist had the Aussie Sharks 3-1 up on a 2m cross pass on extra. Rustam Ukumanov converted a penalty; Aidan Roach sent one into the bottom right from the top and Ukumanov slid sideways , accepted a pass and scored from deep left for 4-3. Aaron Younger accepted the easiest of cross passes to score from point blank and Cotterill scored his eighth goal of the tournament from the left-post position on a one-stroke drive for 6-3 by halftime. Roach took it to 7-3 early in the third period and Mikhail Ruday responded on counter. Younger grabbed his second, also on counter and Roman Pilipenko converted extra-man attack for 8-5. Cotterill scored his fourth and Roach his third — on counter — for 10-5 by 1:37. Both teams called a timeout, but could not gain a goal by the final break. Ravil Manafov started the fourth period to breathe life into Kazakhstan’s claims, but Younger with his third and Mitchell Emery on extra, took the score out to 12-6 in favour of the Sharks. On the opening night, Australia beat Kazakhstan 11-8.



USA (L19) vs. Croatia (L20) 6-8 (2-2, 1-3, 0-2, 3-1) - (3rd/4th place)
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA: Merrill Moses, Ryder Roberts, Alex Obert (1), Michael Rosenthal, Luca Cupido (1), Conner Cleary, Josh Samuels, Bret Bonnani, Alex Bowen (2), Nolan McConnell (1), Jesse Smith (1), John Mann, McQuin Baron. Head Coach: Dejan Udovicic.

CROATIA: Marko Bijac, Luka Bukic (2), Ivan Milakovic (3), Marino Divkovic, Ante Vukicevic (1), Ivan Buljubasic, Petar Muslim, Kristijan Milakovic (1), Ante Viskovic, Duje Zivkovic, Andelo Setka, Marko Macan (1), Ivan Marcelic. Head Coach: Ivica Tucak.

Croatia claimed the bronze medal with a strong game in the middle part of the match. By restricting USA to one goal in those periods, it set itself up for the victory. USA opened through Nolan McConnell  and led 2-1 when Jesse Smith dragged down a ball on the far post on extra-man attack by 2:13. However, Luca Bukic repaired the damage, also on extra, to close the quarter at 2-2. Ivan Milakovic scored a centre-forward goal for 3-2 on the first attack of the second quarter and the margin stretched out to three when Ante Vukicevic and Kristijan Milakovic gave Croatia the lead it needed. Alex Bowen fired one back for USA to close the half at 5-3 in favour of Croatia. Ivan Milakovic scored his third and Bukic his second in the only goals of the period at a time when USA struggled on extra-man attack and could not make the shots count. At four goals down by the final break, USA was not out of the match. Luca Cupido pulled back one but Marko Macan took it back out to four. Both teams went to timeouts and Bowen made USA’s break work when scoring at 3:53 for 8-5. Bret Bonnani had a chance to narrow it further at 2:27, but his penalty attempt was blocked by Marko Bijac. Alex Obert made sure of his shot at 1:02 for 8-6, but it was too late. The middle of the match proved the killer for USA and assured Croatia of the bronze medal.



Hungary (W19) vs. Serbia (W20) 9-19 (2-1, 3-3, 1-1, 1-2; penalties: 2-4) - - (1st/2nd place)
HUNGARY: Attila Decker, Miklos Gor-Nagy, Norbert Madaras (1), Balazs Erdelyi (4), Bence Batori (1), Norbert Hosnyanszky (1), Adam Decker (1), Daniel Angyal, Daniel Varga, Krisztian Bedo, Balazs Harai (1), Marton Levai. Head Coach: Tibor Benedek.

SERBIA: Stefan Zivodinovic, Strahinja Rasovic (1), Dimitrije Obradovic (2), Dusan Markovic, Gavril Subotic (3), Nikola Eskert, Dusan Mandic (1), Viktor Rasovic, Sava Randelovic, Nemanda Ubovic (1), Dusan Vasic (2), Srdan Vuksanovic, Dimitrije Risticevic. Head Coach: Dejan Savic.

Serbia needed a goal inside the final two minutes to force a penalty shootout and Gavril Subotic gave Serbia that chance. In the shootout one Hungarian shot was blocked and the second hit the crossbar. Serbia made sure of all four attempts and laid its hands on the trophy. Hungary made all the play until the final two minutes and wanted to prove that it was not a one-man team. Hungary played without Denes Varga, who was on a one-match suspension for a brutality foul sustained late in the semifinal match with USA on Saturday. He sat in the media stand, draped in a Hungarian robe.
The first quarter was tight with two action goals and Bence Batori’s opening goal on extra. Serbia levelled through Dimitrije Obradovic on counter, receiving a pass and turning to score. Adam Decker and Norbert Hosnyanszky made it 4-2 before Nemanda Ubovic, who missed a match through suspension earlier in the tournament, pulled one back from the two-metre line. Gavril Subotic scored his 10th goal of the World Cup on extra to level at 4-4. Daniel Angyal had a glorious chance to take Hungary ahead late in the period but watched as his point-blank shot was blocked by goalkeeper Stefan Zivodinovic, the best keeper of the tournament. Balazs Erdelyi struck twice for Hungary, the first from an inside pass on two metres for 5-4 to close the half. Then he opened the third quarter with a blast from four metres for 6-4 at 6.50 in the third. Obradovic converted extra-man attack for 6-5 at 4:46 and from then until the end of the period, there were no more goals. Decker scored his second on extra when he received a pass from Daniel Varga for 7-5 at 6:42 in the fourth period. Dusan Vasic scored above the head of  Attila Decker for 706 at 5:32.
The match was starting to get to the most exciting stage and Denes Varga was standing in the seats. Both teams missed extra-man chances heading into the final three minutes. On the third extra, Krisztian Bedo had a close shot blocked, as Serbia had its attempt stopped at the other end. Serbia gained a turnover inside two minutes and Subotic calmly took the ball up and when not defended he sent the ball into the top left for 7-7 at 1:40.  On the next attack, Sava Randelovic gained his third major foul and Hungary called a timeout at 1:17. Hosnyanszky steered the ball to Balasz Harai on the far post, but Zivodinovic blocked it, as he did a subsequent shot. Hungary regained and, with the seconds ticking down, captain Daniel Varga, voted the most valuable player of the tournament despite missing two matches through an allergic reaction to celery, took the crucial final shot. It bounced off a defender and hit Zivodinovic in the face and the match went to a penalty shootout. Hungary shot first and Madaras and Mandic traded goals. Then Batori had his shot blocked by the keeper. Subotic scored his 12th goal of the week and Hosnyanszky hit the cross bar. Strahinja Rasovic converted for 10-8 and Erdelyi made it 9-10. The Vasic stepped up to score for Serbia and take the gold medal at 11-9.

España no estará en el Mundial de Kazan 2015

23/08/2014 - NOTA RFEN.— Ante algunos comentarios aparecidos en las últimas horas en las redes sociales, nos hacemos eco de la información oficial de la Web FINA en la que informa, respecto a la Copa del Mundo Masculina de Waterpolo que se está celebrando en Almaty (Kazakhstan), que la derrota de la favorita Montenegro ante los anfitriones de Kazakhstan por 8—9 a 2.7 segundos del final provocó el delirio local y que la séptima plaza de España obtenida en los Europeos de Budapest 2014 sea estéril.

A falta de confirmación definitiva de la FINA sobre los países que finalmente han ganado su plaza para estar en los próximos Campeonatos del Mundo FINA Kazan 2015, la única vía para estar en el Mundial sería acceder al mismo por la renuncia de algún país y posterior invitación.

Conviene recordar que España -uno de los históricos en Campeonatos del Mundo desde siempre- jugó en el denominado "grupo de la muerte" del Europeo de Budapest 2014 frente a las campeonas olímpica, mundial y europea (Hungría, Croacia y Serbia) en julio, y que la clasificación directa era harto complicada, mientras que la indirecta dependía aún de lo que ocurriese en la actual Copa del Mundo en Almaty (Kazakhstan), donde Montenegro, que ha perdido el partido clave para nuestros intereses con una inferior Kazakhstan, ha jugado con un equipo B con solo dos titulares respecto al Campeonato de Europa de Budapest 2014 donde obtuvieron su plaza mundialista.

Una España en creciente renovación, no obstante, continúa su ruta de viaje para intentar llegar a los Juegos Olímpicos de Río 2016, en gran objetivo del actual ciclo, y se preparará para la Liga Mundial 2014-15 antes de los Campeonatos de Europa de Belgrado 2016 (enero) paso previo para alcanzar el billete para la gran cita olímpica.

Esta la Ficha técnica y el comentario en la Web oficial de la FINA sobre lo ocurrido en el partido que ha dejado fuera a España del Mundial de Kazan 2015:

Match 18: 15:50, 5-8 Semifinal, MONTENEGRO 8 KAZAKHSTAN 9
Quarters: 2-3, 4-1, 1-1, 1-4

Referees: Georgios Stavridis (GRE), Gabor Vogel (HUN).
Extra Man: MNE: 4/9. KAZ: 2/11.
Pens: KAZ: 1/1.

Teams:
MONTENEGRO: Dejan Lazovic, Marko Vukmirovic, Nikola Markovic, Stefan Vidovic (1), Darko Brguljan (6), Bogdan Durdic, Dorde Bulatovic, Jovan Saric, Radovan Latinovic, Nikola Murisic, Filip Klikovac (1), Uros Cuckovic, Slaven Kandic. Head Coach: Ranko Perovic.
KAZAKHSTAN: Makhmetov Madikhen, Sergey Gubarev (2), Yevgeniy Medvedev, Roman Pilipenko (1), Vladimir Ushakov (3), Alexey Shmider, Murat Shakenov (2), Anton Koliadenko, Rustam Ukumanov (1), Mikhail Ruday, Ravil Manafov, Branko Pekovich, Valeriy Shlemov., Head Coach: Sergey Drozdov.

Kazakhstan really wanted to beat Montenegro and qualify for the 2015 FINA World Championships in Kazan, Russia. It needed to win the final quarter by three goals. It needed to score a goal in the dying seconds. This it did. Even thought it was semifinal for the 5-8 positions, because of the make-up of the tournament and the fact that four qualifiers would come from the top six positions, Kazakhstan needed to gain a spot as of right and not to have to go to next month’s Asian Games in Korea and win the title for the spot. Now it has the luxury of competing knowing that it has already booked a plane trip to Kazan. Rustam Ukumanov was the go-to man for the winner. He obliged off a superb pass from Vladimir Ushakov from the top left. Ukumanov was on the far post and he took the catch with ease, turned dlowly and planted the ball down in the bottom right while the goalkeeper was on the other side of the cage. The goal came at 0:02.7 seconds and the crowd was ecstatic. Montenegro, now not bringing a better team to Almaty, will be looking elsewhere to gain a spot in Kazan. Montenegro always struggled and without Darko Brguljan, it would have been toast. He scored six of Montenegro’s eight goals and when Kazakhstan twigged to his potency he was pushed out of the way in the final five minutes after he had just gained his sixth. Montenegro took the lead at 4-3 early in the second quarter and was 6-4 ahead at halftime. This became 7-4 late in the third before Ushakov converted a penalty goal five seconds from the final break. Murat Shakenov scored either side of Brguljan’s sixth goal and when Sergey Gubarev went on counter to score at 2:02, the pool was set alight and at 8-8 there was a good chance for Kazakhstan to win. It came after a timeout at 0:42 and an earned extra-man attack. Kazakhstan was patient and sought out the right man for victory. Montenegro, shocked early, did not know how to finish and looked hesitant. Kazakhstan, however, had a reputation and a home crowd to protect. An assistant coach for Montenegro gained a red card after the final goal.

La experiencia de arbitrar una gran competición 

– Por Jaume Teixidó

 ago 21, 2014  Enrique Toste  El Rincón del Árbitro  

---

El estar presente en grandes competiciones es una enorme satisfacción personal y hace sentirme afortunado de poder representar al arbitraje nacional y a nuestro waterpolo. Sin duda es una gran responsabilidad pues la exigencia en estas grandes citas es muy alta. En ella participamos árbitros de los países participantes y árbitros que actúan cómo neutrales. Somos evaluados en todos los partidos y tenemos varias reuniones técnicas para analizar lo que sucede en los partidos. Con independencia de los partidos que en ellas actuemos, el mero hecho de estar presente es ya un premio. Tenemos que tener en cuenta que, sin ser profesionales, el ser convocados para estos eventos, hace que tengamos que dedicar muchos días e incluso semanas de nuestras vacaciones personales para poder asistir cuando somos convocados por los organismos Internacionales cómo LEN o FINA. Todos tenemos familia y obligaciones personales y laborales… A título de ejemplo, este mismo verano, en el Campeonato de Europa de Budapest, estuvimos 17 días fuera de casa y en la reciente FINA Women´s World Waterpolo Cup en Khanty Mansiysk algo más de una semana.

Cuando estamos tantos días fuera de casa, en estas competiciones, el intercambio de experiencias con árbitros de otros países y continentes es fundamental así cómo la convivencia con ellos. Sin duda esto hace más llevadero el estar lejos de tu familia y seres queridos. También tienes la ventaja en estas competiciones de conocer in situ las instrucciones e indicaciones en relación con los criterios de aplicación del reglamento vigentes en cada momento y que posteriormente trasladamos a la vocalía de waterpolo del CNA de nuestra RFEN para que lo comparta con el resto del colectivo arbitral.

Por otro lado, muy intensamente viví hace unos días la final de la FINA Women`s World Waterpolo Cup, la cual arbitre. Una experiencia única. Este mismo verano tuve la oportunidad de estar en el bronce femenino en el Europeo de Budapest en un Hungría Italia y al finalizar el mismo, nuestras guerreras ganaban el oro ante las holandesas. En Khanty Mansiysk , fui yo el que estuvo en el partido por el oro entre USA y Australia mientras nuestro equipo luchaba por el bronce ante las chinas. Ya en el segundo día de competición, en la fase de grupos, había dirigido este mismo partido USA – AUS con un ajustado 8-6 pero las finales siempre son diferentes. No nos podemos permitir el más mínimo error e intenté hacerlo lo mejor posible. He de confesar que tal cómo creo que me fueron los partidos y estando , desgraciadamente, nuestro equipo fuera de la final, tenía posibilidades de estar presente en ese partido cómo a la postre sucedió aunque no siempre es así. En ocasiones puedes realizar un buen campeonato pero no tener el premio como afortunadamente sucedió.

* A mediados de septiembre Teixidó explicará en WATERPOLISTA.com todo lo referente a las instrucciones de aplicación al reglamento de cara la temporada 2014/2015.

FINA on Thursday announced the field of competitors for both the men's and women's World Cup tournament, to be played in Almaty, Kazakhstan and Kazan, Russia respectively. The men's field will include 2010 winners Serbia despite their 7th place finish on the 2013 World Championships. As defending European champions they still received an invitation from FINA. The Serbs again face a highly competitive group of contenders highlighted by London 2012 Olympic champions Croatia, 2013 world championship gold medallists Hungary and runners-up Montenegro, as well as Barcelona 2013 quarterfinalists Australia. From Africa the team of South Africa joins in while hosts Kazakhstan are sure of participation as well. Major team absent is 2011 world champion Italy who finished 4th at the latest World Championships in Barcelona. In the last edition of the World Cup, held every four years, Serbia topped Croatia 7-13 in the final for the gold medal while Spain won the bronze after beating USA 8-12 in Oradea, Romania. 

In the women's tournament, with just 7 participants in total, all top teams are present with title contenders, 2010 winners and reigning Olympic champions USA joined by the top 4 teams from the recent 2013 World Championships, Spain, Australia, Hungary and Russia while China represents Asia and the South African women do so for Africa. In the women's 2010 edition of the World Cup, held in Christchurch, New Zealand it was Team USA who defeated Australia 6-3 in the gold medal final while China took the bronze medal edging Russia 11-9.
The World Cup tournaments are interesting as they, together with the World League two top spots, hold the first available places (4) to qualify for the 2015 World Championships in Kazan, Russia.
