I cannot at this team is doing this well. I mean they trained a bunch of foreign born Filipinos who did not get their papers done on time, with an original bid for the Women's WCH. With our main pins just off injuries lol. 2-1 against a team they haven't won against like in ever.
I'm quite surprised too. For a team who's currently ranked at 77, they're fighting really hard against teams way, way higher in the workd rankings.
Ugh. It's too bad PHI vs IRI is playing while FRA vs ARG. -
Philippines take set 1!
The 1st set is almost the same story with the game against Egypt. Iran is undoubtedly offensively stronger than the Philippines but its the errors that made the difference. -
I'm so sorry to hear about Bernardinho's mother. It must have been very to difficult to coach a team today while also dealing with a loss of a family member. The loss against Serbia certainly didn't made things any easier. I hope he gets the emotional support that he needs in such a difficult time.

The results are so wild. It's like anyone can win now at this point. So many unexpected twists.
I expect Brazil to be at the finals but at the moment, they are at risk of not reaching even the 1/16 round.
Didn't expect Czechia vs China would have that much impact. I expect Czechia to go all out tonight because their chances in this tournament hangs by a thread as well. -
Brazil with 3 consecutive serve errors practically gave the match away to Serbia. Congrats to Serbia for closing this in straight sets and not allowing a Brazilian comeback. Admirable determination from the underdog team.

And we have our next disappointing team after Japan: Germany

-
oh no, is he also injured? I can’t keep up with all those injured starters 😢
I think he is. I saw a social media post expressing his support for the team in his absence. I'm not update with the injured players as well. I'm wondering too if Karlitzek is injured.
-
This match could have been a lot easier for Germany if Grozer is in killer mode. Sadly, his age is showing. It's mostly the OHs scoring.
-
Wait, I thought Mujanovic was an opposite? Why is he playing ou
Probably as replacement for Mozic? -
another upset

-
Finland did it!
France looked like they didn't want to be there. Quite a number of upsets in this tournament! -
Just tuned in to the tiebreak of France vs Finland. What a meltdown. Looks like another upset in the making

-
What's up with our team randomly winning a game?
It helped that Ordiales helped Bagunas in scoring today. All teams in Pool A now have one win each. It makes it hard to predict who who'll be top 2 and who will be eliminated.
-
OMG! Philippines won their first ever victory in WCH!


-
We won our very first set!
Egypt making those very costly errors towards the end helped -
Bulgaria

First time I've seen this team play. I see now why the Nikolov brothers are getting so much hype. They're so good. Crazy turn around toward the end of the tiebreak. Slovenia was leading for the most part and looked like they're going to win it but that crazy challenge from Blengini and an ace on Mujanovic turned things around

Blengini's challenges

Yikes. Japan is eliminated. What a disappointing run for this team. With them being eliminated, I'm afraid no one might be going to watch the remaining games.

Congrats to Canada! They did like what Turkiye did. Great blocks and serves. -
Thank goodness they lowered the prices to half!
you mean the vbtv suspscription?
