Korea's transition game was awful. Brazil was given multiple chances in rallies to finish.

Will be interesting since both semis were blowouts. Both USA and Brazil played their A teams at VNL and the USA won both times, but it is so hard to beat a team 3 times in a year.

This is kind of a sports cliche IMO. I’d much rather be the team who won twice, it pretty much indicates we’re the better team.

The USA's game plan will be similar to their game plan for Serbia. Serve tough enough to take the middles of out it and focus on getting in front of Brazil's LS and playing defense around the block.

USA and Brazil are the two most complete teams (they don’t have 1 go-to player that’s consistently terminal) so it makes sense that it’s these two teams facing the final!
Although admittedly I thought China was a complete team too… 🥴

Not the result I was hoping for, but I knew Brazil was a tall task. Hopefully Korea can regroup and give Serbia all they've got. I want to see KYK with a medal!

Isn’t this pretty much always the game plan at like, every level lol
