Argentina vs Poland in a few minutes I will repeat my prediction. France, USA and Argentina will win medals this World Championship. On paper Argentina should win this easily. If not, then I will reconsider my prediction. LOL. Poland has passing problems. idk about "easily" Argentina needs Conte to have a good game, better than he did against Serbia Poland has OH problems. Very inconsistent passers. Argentina pretty much have their lineup. Defense is harder than offense. You can have an off day in offense but still be good in offense. When your defense is gone it also affects your offense. Conte has his defense. Poland's OH is just not consistent with their backrow defense.

Fornal and Sliwka starting at OH for Poland, Popiwczak at libero Argentina also not starting Palacio and Loser. Not sure anymore Argentina's chances. Vicentin is good but not Palacio level.

interesting Ishikawa and Nishida didn't play at all probably being cautious. Ishikawa maybe not 100% yet? Nishida also had couple injuries in 2021 involving ankle and calf sprains. Best to keep them safe instead of overexerting in a simple scrimmage.

France won in 3 sets. Bench players started and played the 3rd set.
They're starting a new game now.
