Serbia wins the 4th 30-28!!! What a performance especially by Boskovic and Uzelac there at the end. Germany has been so fun to watch this VNL and I'm glad they're in the finals I don’t think Germany is guaranteed a spot

DOM takes the 2nd set, 25-20. Match tied 1-1. DOM finally played a 3-set match yesterday, back to the usual now.
It's been really nice listening to this match with no commentary - just the court action audio. I don't know if it's by accident because originally the JPN-NED and DOM-CHN streams were flip-flopped and I never exited out.

Really strange refereeing decisions. In at least two challenges the point was unduly given to Canada (in one replay the touch was seen). Too bad because the match was distorted, I hope only by incompetence. I disagree that Canada was given it unduly in two challenges. One, yes. But, Danesi should have got a card first before the ref did his own challenge to reverse the call. The ref let it go a long time and then decided to check the video again. I was not referring to that episode. That point was given to Italy and Danesi should have behaved better, although it is worrying that a referee does not see such a touch less than 2 meters away. I was referring to the fourth set, e.g. point 2-4 for Canada, where from the replay from behind you can clearly see that Maglio touched the ball with her thumb. Less clear is Gray's touch toward the end of the set although index and middle fingers seem to move a bit.

DOM was up 22-20 in the 3rd but got stuck in a tough rotation with neither of the Martinez' or Gaila in the front row and never scored again.
China comes back 25-22 to win the 3rd set and now leads the match 2-1.

Also, uh, the Netherlands is up 2-0 on Japan and is trailing just 1 in the 3rd set, 17-18 in striking distance of a sweep.

Stats for CHN-DOM through 3:
Jineiry has 10 kills, 0 errors, 13 swings. Gaila has 23 points! Yonkaira hitting negative got benched for Peralta who is getting the start in the 4th.
LYY has 16 for China.
China has been so low error from the service line - with just 3 compared to Dominicana's 10.

Dutch beat Japan in four.
USA will avoid Serbia as long as they dont lose to Germany or China and Serbia doesnt go five sets with DOM.
