Does anyone know the playoff schedule? I see that the matches are just about set (except for luckly losers). When would Gibb Bourne play? Germany hasn't been playing as well/coming off an injury, hopefully we can get that done!! Dalcena plays Qatar Saturday night 12midnight ET/9pm PT Tribb plays Germany Monday morning 9am ET/6am PT

If Alison/Alvaro win (against Mexico) and Bruno/Evandro win (against Latvia), they will meet in the QFs.
Nothing like the Rio gold medalists facing off against each other in the next Olympics lol

So while we were being entertained by the USA Womens indoor team, it looks like an upset is about to happen. Plavins/Tocs won 21-19 and up 18-14 in Set 2 against Evandro/Bruno. The Rio champ is about to go down with a 9th place finish!
I’m seeing Evandro has 3 blocks to 0 from Latvia. 12 errors from the Brazilian side, only 4 from Latvia.

Latvia(Plavins/Tocs) giving Evandro/Bruno the business. Couple over on 1 in the second set. Looks like this is pretty much over in 2.

Plavins/Tocs who hasn’t looked good all year long suddenly making a push? And Brazil hasn’t been good since Bruno got Covid.

High bar, but was so good last olympics. Would be crazy to if LAT can knock off both Brazilian teams

Of the 6 medalists from Rio, only 3 remain in contention.
Nicolai/Lupo and Alison.
This could change by tomorrow when we wake up 🤷🏻♀️

I wonder who he's going to pick up, guess it's one between Andre, Guto and Alvaro?

Three more years of doing 80% of the work coming up.
