Guys, are we rooting for France or the ROC here? Anyone who wants USA to advance should be rooting heavily for Russia. Period. Advancing to the QF's is the most important aspect first rather than worrying about potential crossover matches or winning the pool. You never want to be in a winner-take all match with a team who is all over the place (Argentina). Come on Russia!!! 12-16 in Set 3

Pool A is 3/4 decided. Iran-Japan winner moves on. The loser does not. It's that simple. . Canadians have clinched even if they get pummelled badly by Poland? 😯

The reasoning is that Canada can have no worse than a 9:9 set ratio (1.000) The Japan-Iran loser cannot pass Canada in points (who has 7) and Japan-Iran loser will also have a sub 1.000 set ratio. Mathematically impossible for Canada to be passed.

That would be quite the plot twist if France can take a W here and against Brazil

Let’s see if their offense can hold up
