USA looked almost perfect against a lackluster France today, while Russia had a bit of a slow start and then got on track against Argentina. This match has big implications for pool rankings and potential quarterfinal matchups, should be a good one!

I’m liking all the team USA indoor volleyball headshots. The other countries look like mugshots 🤣

This is an absolute hate crime. I've never seen Poletaev look bad in a photo. Ever. I'm devastated.

I don't know specifically, but I'm like 75% sure Erik has a 'what's in my bag' on his youtube channel, and I'm like 35% sure he says the shoe brand he uses. Might be worth a shot because I'm not sure the specific brand is usually public knowledge.

Ok I'll go.
USA stays elevated but falters in game 3 getting out of system.
We win 3-1
Won't be easy at all, but I think we have a better collective starting 7 and system rn.

If we win the serve/pass battle pretty decisively, I think we stand a very good chance of getting through Russia's block/defense and winning the match. However, if Russia is successfully able to pick on TJ/really cause trouble in our serve receive, I think we will have a ton of trouble getting through Iakoblev and Volvich and our chance of winning decreases drastically. If Russia is passing well, might be game over.

I’m liking all the team USA indoor volleyball headshots. The other countries look like mugshots 🤣 Really? Because I feel like the photographer used a weird lens that focused on their chins. They all look like they have Frankenstein chins.

Anyways… I like USA 3-1 here but I think it’s a closer matchup than the France one. I think it just depends which Volkov and Kliuka show up.
