This match has the "punto viva viva" guy as the second or third announcer? I love that guy. Seems like he's repeating what the other guys say. LOL!

Meh. This match isn't really important. Still, Dominicana should win this tournament.

If there’s one guarantee when DR hosts, it’s the advertisers getting their money’s worth.

Watching this team is very cringe.
I think it’s safe to say that not one of these players will be seen on any roster for any major tournaments.

Mexico wins 3-1 to advance to the final.
That will help them in their case to the WCH... but I think they may fall just short

I think USA might not be the number one world ranked team after this tournament. Brazil is only two points behind them but is playing in their continental championships. They both teams have faced vastly weaker opponents so their wins won't count for much. Anyone willing to do the math before tomorrow's matches?

Anyone willing to do the math before tomorrow's matches? www.fivb.com/en/volleyball/rankings/seniorworldrankingwomenThe rankings are dynamic with every match. USA has already dropped to #2 after all the losses in NORCECA Championships and Pan American Cup. Not that it really matters when you're already in the top 4.

It just means they will be in Pool C for the WCH's again instead of in Pool B. I kind of wanted them to go in at number one but their seeding in that tournament isn't really a big deal. Both the number 5 and 6 seed will likely be a European team. One of either Turkey, Serbia or Italy will likely remain the 4th, 5th and 6th ranked teams behind 3rd ranked China. Does anyone know if Dominicana winning tomorrow will put them above both Italy and Serbia? They can't catch Turkey at this point.

And I think it might cost DR's chances to getting to #6 in the World Ranking. They're 2 points behind Italy now - i don't know if that's with the updated Canada sweep or not.
