    I don't believe that it's so easy!

    2019's 1-3 and 2020's 3-2, they are too much hard...

    My favourite roster of Chinese (in 2022)
    male NT:
    S - Yu Yao-chen, Chen Lei-yang
    OP - Jiang Chuan, Dai Qing-yao
    OH - Zhang Jing-yin, Yu Yuan-tai, Liu Li-bin, Fu Hou-wen
    MB - Zhang Zhe-jia, Peng Shi-kun, Li Yong-zhen, Jiang Zhen-yang
    L - Yang Yi-ming, Yang Tian-yuan


    female NT:
    S - Yao Di, Diao Lin-yu
    OP - Gong Xiang-yu, Sun Xiao-xuan
    OH - Li Ying-ying, Wang Yi-fan, Wu Meng-jie, Zhuang Yu-shan
    MB - Yuan Xin-yue, Wang Yuan-yuan, Zheng Yi-xin, Liu Yu
    L - Ni Fei-fan, Xu Jia-nan

    that was a tough match, all 3 sets were close but Iran somehow managed to win all 3 sets.


    I think we somehow got lucky at the end, Kazemi got injured on the match point and things could be different if we had to continue without him (Esmaeilnejad the reserve OP sucks big time) Kazemi deserved the MVP award without doubt. what a great tournament he had.


    while winning the 4th continental title is great but this also means we will continue with this "Behrouz the emperor" :rolll:guy as coach, :aww: we will see what he can do against world level teams.


    also I'm glad that we will see 4 Asian teams in the World Championship. China and Qatar alongside Iran and Japan
