You bring your wins and points to second round so a loss tomorrow will likely eliminate France from Final Six.
I’m very curious what De Cecco’s problem is. First he abruptly got married in the middle of the final series without the presence of his family then has taken whole summer to deal with a personal problem . It is interesting that he is getting free pass by Argentian fans .
BTW ; do you think Zaytsev’s target video ,#sorrynotsorry, a bit offensive to De Cecco?

Velasco said "He said he's fine, but his mind is elsewhere".
I'm very sorry for him

I think they played together for 2 years, so I a gentle tease is a very normal things (it wouldn't be if he didn't personally know the 'victim'), especially after a 'captain derby'.
Still, I wondered if he knows what problem Luciano had...

Maybe De Cecco is changing citizenship like Orduña?

France cannot beat Canada on sets ratio if tied on wins and points
brahmin, I didn't understand. Is it just a specific, or a correction?
If France will beat Canada 3-0 or 3-1, they'll be ahed of them.
Ps anyway I didn't do the math, just copied it from volleyball.it with a bit of correction on Serbia/Russia (I actually forgot the correction in pool H) and Belgio/Slovenia: I considered these two couple of teams like 'having even chance of being 2nd/3rd', while them said Slovenia and Russia are more chance to be 2nd than respectively Belgio and Serbia.
Maybe De Cecco is changing citizenship like Orduña?
Orduna did that because he hasn't been good enough to play for Argentina, so he uses his italian citizenship to get signed easier by italian clubs.
If De Cecco changes something, then it means he's planning to not play international volleyball anymore (also, he's already 30). I see him retiring soon, but I would like to think he wants to try one more olympics.

He said "tied in points and wins", if France wins 3-0 or 3-1 they will be tied in wins but not in points: Canada will have 9 and France 11. He's talking about the case in which France wins 3-2, they will be tied in both but Canada will still have better set ratio.
Is there any livestream for Japan-Argentina game?

Thank you, i have tried it but unfortunately it wouldn’t allow me as I’m in uk 
Japan already eliminated and still takes it to 5th.
This Argentina team
Iran also messed up by losing an important point in their last match of the preliminaries.
Argentina is such a unstable team. They could compete against Italy in one match, but then in the verge to lose a set against Dominican Republic or lost against an already eliminated Japan team.
It should be quite frustrating for Velasco. Btw...how could you set the last ball to Lima? 
I am happy that Argentina qualified to the next round, however, congrats to Japan for their effort.
No words, absolutely embarassing defeat.
They shouldn't even bother showing up in Varna for the second round.

I know he said that, but what I was wondering is why 
I mean, it seemed like a correction, but it wasn't actually correcting something, just adding an info...
Unless he didn't agree with the teams in the brackets?
Japan won, I didn't expected that. Not that one/two points made a great difference for Argentina's hope to get to Turin, but still...

I know that but those points matter, like, to finish above Australia or Finland in the final ranking. Now, we will finish even below those teams and our world ranking will fall apart.

Just relax. Argentina have more chances to qualify to the olympics than the 90% of Europe.
