JPN took Set 1 after trailing late by 4 points. 28-26 i believe was the final.
Could easily see this going 5!

In the China-Korea match 2 days ago, some people were suspicious about the 4th set when China used Wang and Zeng together on court.
Wang and Zeng are together in the match now vs Japan so it is obvious that it is a tactic that China has been exploring.
I don't hear anyone questioning this pairing in this match ;D

It's always fun to watch a competitive match. A little sloppy but good.

Wow! Big win for Japan!
All the quarter finals should be entertaining..... The USA match is probalby the only one that has a clear favorite. I would like to see Brazil beat Russia..... and Korea defeat Italy.
