Lol whoever from Pool B gets lucky and matches up with Korea…
There’s such a stark difference between “#2 Serbia” and third place Korea. No one can convince me tho that Serbia didn’t throw their Brazil match

No one can convince me tho that Serbia didn’t throw their Brazil match why would they throw it? China is their worst match-up by far, and they wanted to avoid a resurgence. It didn't happen though. I also think Korea is taking this match off emotionally. KYK does not have her trademark intensity. They're not good but will at least put up more of a fight in the quarters. |

Losing the guarantee to be opposite at least one of USA/Italy/russia but with this games, it probably wouldn't matter with how messy everyone is. |

No one can convince me tho that Serbia didn’t throw their Brazil match why would they throw it? maybe bc they think Russia will lose to Turkey and the US will be 4th? Or China could’ve been 4th at that time too. Idk but watching that match they lacked energy, looked careless and even Maja was as bad as I’d ever seen |

I mean at least Korea has tough serving and KYK. Their most favourable match up might be Turkey tbh.

I think Korea is saving their other OH (Park Jeong Ah) for the quarterfinals. They are basically playing their 4th OH option in Pro Seung Ju.

Korea playing a bunch of subs. This match should be a sweep for Serbia.
Also, it's so jarring to see Lavarini give actual tactics during timeouts lol. No "40 more plays" from Lavarini.

Only Serbia could have a player put up 30 kills in 4 sets and still be accused of throwing a match. Lol.

Huh… stats say Busa is 3/10. I could’ve sworn she had more kills than that. But then again these stats have been kind of whack some games

They really committed to putting Rasic on the slide in the scouting report for the medal rounds.

I'm kind of surprised Heejin+KYK+Bosko are getting all these swings. Well, I guess you want to keep players fresh and in rhythm and it may not be necessary to 'rest' them. It's not back-to-back matches in any day. Who knows.
