Also Graven was really, REALLY good for Germany at libero. Not sure what the hesitation was with starting him but he's earned that spot now.

I thought CAN would have won this match. I don’t know how they lost set 3. Good job, Germany!

It looks like Japan might bring the same lineup for round 2. They’re already on the way to France

Watched the Canada v Germany replay. So many poor oos sets by Canada. Almost always behind the hitters. They had every opportunity to win this but imo the setting was rough for Canada.

Is Bulgaria not going to make the finals most likely?
Nikolov is going to play the U21 world championships

They have left Japan Slovenia China Italy Netherlands Poland France Bulgaria Bulgaria may throw in the towel though. They have Brazil Canada Argentina Cuba Germany Iran Serbia USA |

Cuba's setter is weak but they have yet to add Robertolandy and when he steps on the court with Herrera and a guy like Yant....lookout.

Plus Japan is still bringing their A squad next week and Slovenia is looking solid with Čebulj at OPP? Yeah, if Bulgaria doesn't totally throw it in, Canada is in real trouble. |

I wouldn’t say China is favored in any of their remaining matches, but the matches against Germany and Canada could be the difference
