I’m not comfortable with saying there’s a real winner of this match. All I know is that I’m losing by watching this mess lol

I’m upset that the China-Russia match starts so late because I would rather be watching that than any of the first three matches of the day 🥴

THis really is not the Korea/DR match I was expecting. SLow, no power, mistakes everywhere constantly. Yeah, only 25 total points in but this is not good. Even KYK looks lethargic

Both teams had the latest time slots in their prior matches and now have an early one, but it's not like they were yesterday, there's a day break.

Kim Heejin (Korean OPP) was injured and I'm not sure she's recovered. I would say Korea needs to set KYK a ton and try to win this, but I'm not sure she's looking like she can go off.

As for DR, well, we know how inconsistent they are. They were quite up and down in the 5-setter with Brazil.

Lol Lavarini and Kwiek both look so pissed

Korea takes the first 25-20

[trojansc]

Rivera came on and got aced three times. That was ugly.

25-20 Korea takes set 1.

one of them wasn’t her fault

[trojansc]

Still no De La Cruz. Rivera keeps her spot on court, Gaila off for set 2.

Japan has to feel good about watching this match.......

Wtf is this Korean setting

[basil]

this Korean setter...new Mirkovic?

Kim is a queen so she handles it but still.

[basil]

I have a feeling both liberos are better than their setters at setting.

[trojansc]

There's only one decent setter on court and she's in the libero jersey (and she hasn't even been setting well today either)

[trojansc]

DR is even more cringe when they play without a setter but somehow they manage to score points in those rotations

Ahhhhhh omg another throw called
