the semis between JAP vs BRA was entertaining alright, but the screaming finals between jacqueline x gamova RUS x BRA was the real deal. everyone wanted a catfight to happen.

Quote from Leonardo.D

The 35x33 second set was just

That match was a masterpiece, in all senses. Feel gutted for Japan, but we all wanted a BRA x RUS rematch in the finals. But that match is one of the best I have ever watched, pure volleyball. Fabiana waking up from the third set on, Sassa coming for the rescue, Takeshita, Saori and Ebata Amazing match.

seriously though, 'sup with TUR?

shame, china had so many chances. but take nothing away from italy though. egonu was absolute monstrous the last set.

CHN breakdown at 4th set. they can't stop egonu and they're making tons of errors. shame, they had a great run.

followed by a serve error

they actually CAN defeat italy. italy isn't playing really well since the end of the 2nd set. it's only china's errors that's keeping italy in front.

ding xia. hahaha

on the other side, TUR is being eaten alive by the USA.

that's the funniest ball in-out, if the ball is 1 strand of hair away from the line.

come on china, make this 3x2. take it to 5th set!

china is digging its own grave with all these errors. helping an already more superior team to win.

i just love egonu's hair. lol #outoftopicbutjustsaying

TUR was able to match and challenge SRB in the 3rd set but alas, their errors was their undoing. that was a lousy ending. lol

also Ana Moser and Janina Conceiçao before Walewska and Juciely.

44 blocks for Carol!

ana moser was an outside hitter though.

Quote from jaeden85

Maybe Rosamaria will be the starter in the QF.

yessss please!! and she's being interviewed right now. so respectful of belgium in the interview.

rosamaria is doing some great defense since she entered the game. let's put her in the starting position next time please. pri daroit deserves her rest forever in the bench.

... and kissy brings it home! congrats brazil!

if only BRA will have another player of carol's caliber though. basically a repeat of walewska/fabiana and fabiana/thaisa would've been awesome.

SERB, to be honest, is not playing that terribly well (as a team). They remind me of old school Russians, with their high balls and all. But that speaks of how good individually their hitters are.

it's that just TUR is playing soooooo bad.

on the other side, brankica and team are annihilating TUR.

carol milove..

the world is going topsy turvy. the grandmothers showing their age. lolololol too many errors.

go brazil! let's get the 2nd set.
