When it's crunch time, the Netherlands almost always choke.
And of course if Bongaerts makes a few mistakes, Dijkema immediately comes in. Great coaching by Morrison

Since when has Robinson a good serve?
When she was the bench player in vakifbank in 2017-2018 season, that was the chance for her to play~~~

I think Netherlands should try new liberos. Knip and Schoot are both precarious.

Maybe Hester Jasper can change to libero. Her reception was good. Considering her height, it's a bit difficult for her to play as an OH.

Gosh mara again as starter. No block points no attack points for her! Lol

Maybe an option for the future, but she wouldn't be ready to play in short-term.

without injuries, im already ok with gabi and natalia as starting oh of brazil!

Yes, true. That would be the plan after Tokyo olympics. For now, they need to stick to the current two.

Is it normal for the 1st reff to react that late?

If Daalderop was healthy, she had to come inside the court for Buijs. She is the weak link this match.
Buijs had a bad performance today. It seemed there was no Plan B. I feel like the opposite side of Grothues is a huge problem, especially on passing. I hope Daalderop will improve her passing. That's crucial.

Typical coaching by Morrison: Never making the substitution in time.
-
Belgium on a streak here. Brazil has no answer but to call a time out.

Yes today Buijs was bad, but last week she was the best player actually. Still Daalderop is the better option IMHO, both in attack as in reception.

Roberta out-of-place set to the OH is sometimes magical.
-
Annie Drews.
She is def better then Jennifer Lawrence atm
She is so average OPP, not even near high level volleyball.
Lowe all the way over her.
-
Just hope Coach Ze will let the reserve play after this set.

So we know All The teams qualified for the F6: China, Brazil, Italy, Turkey, USA and Poland

Oh,Malwina could rest tommorrow,Brazil already lead 2:0 Belguim

Buijs is almost always hesitating against physical strong team...she needs to dare hitting instead of tipping or soft shots... I prefer Nika.
Today was comedy-capers in many moments unfortunately. Bongaerts had many connection-problems, especially with Plak at zone 4 and Koolhaas at zone 2. Nevertheless, I think she is overall a better setter than Laura. She plays faster, more versatile, is a better blocker and server. She just lacks experience.
What worries me the most is NIka's health. Why she didn't enter court today, even for a few points?? Hopefully she will play tomorrow, stating she is not injured again.
About libera's : unfortunately there is no better one as Schoot and Knip.
P.S. I really like Drews as a player, but please STOP chewing bubblegum during the match...it is so annoying to see it all the time..
