Great substitutions by Santarelli in this set. Also keeping Mirosavljevic in was good decision, she is much better than Mijatovic in any case (and position, LoL).
this is kind of Embarrassing for Japan to be losing right now while Serbia is basically playing with no opposite
Japan, Week 1 and Week 2 called, they miss you.
What's happening to Japan this week is disappointing. Hope they can revive things come finals week
By the way, shall we take a moment to appreciate how consistently awesome Zehra is! When she was compared to Thaisa, people were making fun of her but She is literally one of the best MBs right now if not best. She is the best attacker of the tournament and second best blocker. And she is not even 23 years old yet
On the other hand Eda is playing with all her grace at the age of 35😍👏👏
With Hande and Simge back, Türkiye could beat USA in finals
How about those USA players that will comeback in the finals?
I think with the USAs depth, Turkey will challenge USA but they will not win againts the American.
But,
CROWD will be one vital factor that turkey will snatch the game.

Turkey has to get to the finals first 
(as does the USA)

Seems like this week's "experiment" killed the momentum they built in 1&2. Hayashi is the only one who brought game tonight.
Match isn't over , but it's painful no matter the ending
This is the 2016-2021 Japan.
One thing I forgot earlier is FIVB has to make “in the plane” calls challengeable…. Especially if the refereeing is as awful as it’s been
Serbia digging everything just impresses me
I don't believe he's writing it, but Mirković is playing really well

she was excellent all week long. Very impressed. Sure she had some bad moments in each match but overall her improvement is extremely noticeable
that's the thing with Japan. They're so structured that any little thing that's out of the book throws them off. Some Brazilian fans think they "gave" that game with Turkey but I think they're genuinely having difficulty winning.
I hope they surprise us in the next matches.
Van ryk is too error prone and Murmann as libero is not it.
"choose what we focus on" is the new "choose to compete"
Winzer: "Choose what we focus on!"
GER beat CAN 3-1.
Unless USA throws to GER tomorrow, THA is in the finals independent of the result.
Germany wins in 3. So the high probability of Thailand entering the final 8 is within reach, just need to watch out for germany-US game tomorrow.
assuming the expected teams win (USA over GER, ITA over THA, JPN over whoever they play, CHN over KOR), then it's looking like
TUR (1) - THA (8)
ITA (4) - JPN (5)
BRA (3) - CHN (6)
USA (2) - SRB (7)
for the finals brackets?

this is what Brazilian fans are babbling about huh. i've read posts about them crying about it

What are they upset about? We're not flying Zhu in for the finals (even though she is in Europe).
