Why would you think Italy will match up with Serbia for certain if they lose this match to China? You think Italy will certainly lose to the US? Not for certain, but they would be risking it compared to playing vs Jap or DR. Whoever thinks these competitors are throwing matches at this stage just to potentially hurt themselves is crazy. Didn’t you think China also threw the first match and said they do not care about the group stage? You think Italy has no confidence to beat the US? And please point to where I actually said China was throwing matches at Tokyo? Don't make stuff up. |

It might have been not you, I could be wrong, but you still think Italy is throwing this 🤷🏻♂️ Maybe that’s where that came from |

Such a luxury for Italy to have two competent setters.

Italy's OH's scoring when in trouble are what's keeping them in this match, NOT Egonu.

I said they are not playing 100%. That's not the same as "throwing" matches. |

I said they are not playing 100%. That's not the same as "throwing" matches. Okay sure, Italy is choosing to play at 60% today just so they can have a tougher road to medaling. Let’s stay at that narrative |

Egonu hasn't been other-worldly in any Pool play match, frankly. I have to think she'll bring it in the knockouts though, we'll see. |
