Turkey is another one of those teams who seems to play to their opponents level. This is what everyone says and it's true

If Turkey wins this match I have a weird feeling they make it to the gold medal match...

I know we all love KYK but it’s honestly a shame Korea is here over an actually good team like China Japan should definitely be here over them. They could hopefully put up more of a fight.

Eurosport commentator said Korea and Turkey played against each other 9 times before. Korea won twice. Let's see how this one goes down

Japan didn't beat anyone except Kenya, didn't take a set against Brazil/Sebia, lose to Korea, got drubbed by DR 25-10 in a set. They're not playing well either.

Turkey has shown up with their A-team for events all quad. They have invested in the young players coupled with experienced players like Naz and Boz. They stepped up and challenged a great Serbian team in the '19 EC. They fought to even qualify for Tokyo in a pretty epic and emotional match against Poland. They kicked off the tournament dismantling China and took down a Russian team who had been playing at a seriously high level.
I'm rooting for them to medal. It just seems appropriate to me.

Karakurt ace, it's done. Turkey wins the first set, i feel like it was super quick?

How are y'all even watching this match?! I tuned in for 5 minutes and almost lost my mind. I had to turn it off. It's so sloppy.
KYK you deserved better 😩

That Olympic qualification game with Poland is a must watch high level volleyball for both teams. it's actually on Youtube. Turkey took 5 match points from Poland, came behind and won the game. All players from both sides were crying after those 5 sets. A lot of respect for that team to be honest.

Sidenote, I hope Japan uses this arena next time they host something like the VNL or World Cup or something. It'd be absolutely amazing with fans.
