Neither team is playing with any intensity. Neither want to win this match. Looks like they're just going through the motions, letting the chips fall where they may.

Haha, winner of the pool, likely faces Brazil... I know. I'd like Russia to win this match because I don't want to see them in a Semifinal, and have someone else knock them out.

Russia's libero looks like a total badass

Sokolova looks pretty darn good in this set. She is passing most of the floor with the libero...though that also says something about Italy's serving

I don't understand why people keep bringing up this point. Brazil has played poorly in the tournament and still might be eliminated. Why would someone count on them to beat a team that same someone sees as a threat to the dominant USA? It's like saying: A is much much greater than B. B is better than C. Therefore A equals C. Huh??

Gonchorova has NEVER hit anything other than high seam... If they match up with the Americans, I hope they can take that away.
