Match point for Italy...
-
De Gennaro is indeed amazing
-
I have given up live stream already and turned to live score, which is faster.
-
What a set. I have no words.
-
From 3 points lead to 3 points down
-
Ding Xia is once again wasting our chances with her poor decisions.
-
I'm unhappy that both referees are from Europe
-
What just happened? Why replay? Didn't Italy make the wrong challenge
-
Will we have to wait an hour for the next match to start?
In about 6 minutes.

About the match: congrats Serbia, a totally deserved final!
But let me congratulate with Ned as well: the try it very hard and I really liked their spirit!
arrekusu : I envy you, they aren't showing interviews on Rai!!
She said she want to beat China in the final because they lost back in Rio. Well I wanna thank her for her kindness!

The interviews of this WCH have overall been really good. Had the chance to hear some players talk for the first time.
Did Maya just mention China?
-
Congratulations to Serbia for their first ever WCH final (IIRC)!
Netherlands fought really hard

What a drama...
-
Another one on one block on Buijs by Rasic!
-
Maybe not for Mihajlovic (at least not so far) but Boskovic's jump float is also very threatening
-
Mihajlovic and Boskovic both used to have very threatening jump serves, and yet both changed to jump float now. I'm not very sure about such move.

Such a beautiful though a bit empty court.

Chinese team's own match records:
- The Chinese team has never lost in the Semifinal match at the World Championship
- The Chinese team has never lost Twice to the same opponent in one tournament
- In the 2014 edition, the host team also beat the Chinese team in the pool match, but it failed to do it again in the semifinals
This is really not convincing statistically...for example, China lost to Italy in semi-final match at 2002 WCH. Also, we missed 2006 and 2010 semifinal so such tournaments do not count; about not losing twice to the same opponent in one tournament, sometimes you just don't have the chance to (like in world cup)...
Well, look forward to the match!
