Anyone knows any working live streaming for CHN v KOR?

this one announced yet does not deliver : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MGAC7Qz88f4

USA team is better today. The Chinese team will have to start all over again their campaign here after the devastating 0-3 defeat, it is not over yet! It's quite pitiful that they even couldn't take one game. Btw Kim Hill is lovely.

The Serbian girls will be my #2 idolized team, so many lovely girls there, so powerful and the #3 Busa is the loveliest in my eyes

Within the next few hours we'll witness the great match between the USA vs China, the world's strongest teams in addition to Brazil.

This match will be fascinating in particular for I believe both teams will field their strongest line-up available here, in this World Cup. The sweet trophy of two berths in 2016 Rio OG will encourage both to do the best here, more incentive than the recent WGP.

In their last two matches during the WGP series (Hong Kong) & final round (Omaha) both teams did not come in full force. It's true that both sides still have one or two key players being absent from this World Cup, but the current line-ups much better represent the real power of both than in the preceding encounters.

We all should enjoy the awesome treat in matter of hours

Of course I hope the Chinese team will bag this match

Quote from pappi

you flatter me indeed! thank you for the compliment words to me.
my very first volleyball game when i was very young was the volleyball game in Barcelona 1992.
and when i was 11, the final game China vs Cuba in Atlanta was so impressive to me. China was beaten and i was beaten by volleyball completely.
but actually now i am not a pure fan of China volleyball.
as one of millions of volleyball fans, i would like to say some responsible and reliable words here.

i used to watch WGP final in Ningbo couple of years ago, and i had chance to say some words with regla torres.
at that time, cuba was rising with some young talents like sallas, palacios, castaneda simon, giel, r.sanchez, cleger.....
but more and more players were running away or leaving national team for reasons.

i heard most likely that the talents could not be allowed to join other nation's leagues and blocked by the national sport authority. the only way to go abroad is leave national team.
this is the result of cuba volleyball. of course it is only one simple reason. there is a complexity and mixture of hundreds of reasons for descent of Cuba volleyball.
the outdated comcept of training and low salary of cuba players are also big problems.

Thank you for explaining on Cuba team. I had guessed earlier their setback might have been caused by the socioeconomic matters. Among many other things it surely takes substantial financial resources to build and maintain a competitive team, the underlying support system and the entire domestic competition.

The JPN team fight quite amazingly, they lost in five games with razor thin margin!

And the RUS team are not as strong as many might have perceived!

My goodness, it must be very painful for Kotoh to have the ball hit her face directly!

Quote from Matthias

Not just her, nobody on Russian side blocks well individually but worst of all they don't block well as a team, they're badly positioned with big holes between the blockers and bad timing.

Serbia's "decision" to skip WGP final round turns out to be a good one. Russia who played fairly well in WGP finals now lacks the energy they had back then, and it's just the 2nd of 11 matches

So seems to be the Chinese decision to not sending their A team to the WGP Final Round.

Russian blocking just doesn't work. Surprised the taller team can't block effectively.

Congratz to Serbia for the much needed victory!! What a great comeback

Russia will eventually take the match, though surprised that Japan give so good the fight

Will SRB repeat yesterday's match? They should have taken the 2nd game but they let it slipped away.

They have all the needed resources to beat the USA team supposed they minimize their errors!

The cutest team in this tournament, #19, 10, and 03 are great

For those volleyball fans who care to seek the higher quality of World Cup videos at 1080 HD, check them at this uploader: FIVB Volleyball - the official channel of the International Volleyball Federation at the google's youtube. So far they already uploaded some World Cup vids.

Other uploaders to my knowledge just provide the 720 HD resolution though they do the uploads fast and extensively.

Thanks pappi for the info on the weird yet interesting various scoring records. They simply show some teams are really out of competition!

I am stunned by the reality on how far the Cuba team has been down to the bottom, from a nation on top of volleyball (with the most gold medals on the Women's World Cup) down to the insignificant level today. Wonder what happens with their volleyball team within the last decade.

Well, I enjoy reading your many postings. Quite informative, balanced and well-thought! Much appreciated!!

Just another reaffirmation of different class among the 4 teams

Quote from Emil

As expected easy 3-0 win for Russian federation and USA

I hope the Korean team will give a decent fight against the USA... having the five sets will be a great effort

I'm rather surprised that CHN is voted with higher winning odds than USA

Quote from ossubtus

yes, samsara, but CUB still has more WCup golds...

Ok I see, Cuba has more World Cup's GOLD medals, and one gold even means more than many silvers and bronzes

Top-4 : CHN USA RUS SRB

Lesser teams: JPN DOM KOR ARG PER CUB

Great losers: KEN ALG

Interestingly, this will be China's first World Cup after Lang Ping's return as head coach of China's women's team in 2013.
Their record of Three Gold, One Silver and Two Bronze means they have won more World Cup medals than any other country. <Wow!>

Hi everyone! I am samsara not from China yet an ardent supporter of the Chinese women's volleyball team

Can't remember the precise year I started to fall in love with this team, but possibly when I watched casually their plays during the 2014 Women's Volleyball World Championship... the new generation of the lovely Hui Ruoqi et al.

I love watching women's volleyball and talk about it, and I find this forum is great for all the volleyball talks and carries lots of info, many kinds, incl. the tournament specifics and the technical aspects as well. I am just a beginner, a spectator of volleyball match and still learning enthusiastically to better understand and enjoy the game

Cheers all!
