Whoever wins Pool B will have a real advantage going into the quarterfinals. If Japan, Russia, and Italy do what they are supposed to and get the top 3, Dominican Republic would be the easiest quarterfinal for sure. Pool B is going to be so fun to watch. Every match will be a battle.

VOLLEYRUSSIA has just updated the groups of London Olympics on facebook.
Group A: USA (1), Italy (4), China (5), Turkey (8), Dominican Rep. (9), England (12)
Group B: Brazil (2), Japan (3), Serbia (6), Russia (7), Korea (10), Algeria (11)
Then these two groups are balanced.
Let's see whether it is official or not.
-
That groups being already mentioned are certain anymore. So;
Group A: England, Japan, Italy, Russia, Dominic Republic, Algeria
Group B: USA, Brazil, China, Serbia, Turkey, South Korea.
Quarter Final Match-ups;
1A-4B, 4A-1B and the other match-ups will be determined by lot between the teams of 2A - 3A - 2B - 3B.
Semi Final Match-ups;
(1A-4B) - (4A-1B) and the other leg
Dom. Rep., Algeria and England in the same group, what a joke!

With Yang Hyo-Jin (MB), Kim Na See (setter), KYK, and replacing the Opp lefty to one of the younger MBs (the one who used to be the sub), then they have a good chance against anyone.

Correction at Semi Final match-ups!
The winner of 1A-4B will play against one of the quarterfinal match-ups determining by lot.
&
Similarly, the winner of 4A-1B will play against the other match-up determining by lot.
Btw, Turkish Volleyball President and many other people have already given lots of statements to the media about the groups. So, i strongly believe that groups are official.

Why FIVB is still sleeping? Every federation, volleyball sites, fanpages publish something about the groups but there isn't any news from FIVB still Really absurd..

Do you mean #19 Hee-Jin Kim? It isn't the first time while she played as OPP, she was used in this way during Asain Championships.

Does anybody here go to the olympics?
It is my dream... I wish I can but I will be with my scout group in a camp and I will be (maybe) without mobile phone [but it I take it with me in the mountains it doesn't work] and without internet (for sure) and also without television. I can't watch matches... I hope someone will post the video on youtube (especially ITA and USA matches... and also the final that will be ITA-USA

If it is true Italy-Russia as first match is so stupid idea like USA-Brazil from the World Cup.
