ExpandBy my math is official. But the commentators and the Dutch team are acting like it’s not confirmed.
What would the world rankings look like if 
beats 
3-0 and 
loses to 
0-3?
Wouldn’t Canada then still pass the Netherlands? The gap was small between both teams before this match and is much higher rated than .
3 - 0 
in the bronze medal match 
The tournament will be hosted by 
and 
now according to the Polish PM.
Normally speaking, it will be between 
and for one ticket to Tokyo. of course the heavy favorite, but beat 
and back-to-back at the 2018 World Championships. I don't have my hopes too high up, but I'm excited for that match tomorrow.

The top 3 in Group A is very clear to me (
), with 
and battling it out for the last spot in the Round of 16. That's really a toss-up for me, as I think they could all take that final spot.
-
Group B: and are of course the biggest favorites.
is a clear number 3 for me after their good performance this year in the Nations League. I don't think 
stands any change, so and 
will battle it out for that fourth place.
-
Group C is obviously the weakest here, with
not performing as well as they back in 2016 and 2017, although they should still finish 2nd. I don't see any serious threat for in that group, they seem to be the clear group winners to me, whereas 
is the clear number 6 here in my opinion. That means 
and 
will battle for third and fourth place.
-
and 
are the clear favorites in Group D, but perhaps 
could surprise them here. They have shown good results against weaker teams, but I think they're ready to make the next step. Surprised to see that 
even qualified for this tournament. They should be happy with any win. I put 
over 
for 4th place in this group because of home advantage and the slightly better results in the past year.
ExpandPool A Turkey - Serbia
Pool B Italy - Poland
Pool C The Netherlands- Azerbaijan
Pool D Russia - Germany
Im sorry for our bleues ?
I have to agree with your picks. What I predict:
Group A: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6.
Group B: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6.
Group C: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6.
Group D: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6.
Semis: vs. and vs.
Final: vs.

I actually think deserves a medal here, but because of the draw, they will most likely meet in the quarter finals, and I think will win that matchup, although I believe they are currently stronger than both and .

will most likely meet in the quarter finals, that's why I don't predict them to make the semis either, although I believe they are stronger than at the moment.
in the same pool during women's volleyball nations league in week 3.
Expandand especially after first set, still incredible how they lost it........but bounced back in the end
Wasn't able to watch the match as I'm at work, but I gave up hope after I saw that they were trailing 0-2. The highlights of this match must be incredible. Can't wait to find a proper video tonight.
Came back from 0-2 in sets after losing the second set with 25-15.
ExpandWhat Brazil needs to qualify ?
3-0 victory against Japan, then they would tie in wins, in points and in set ratio with Japan, but Brazil's points ratio would be better than that of Japan.
Best result ever at a World Championship for 
Our previous best result was a 7th place in 1998.
The top 6 might very well be exactly the same as the final 6 of the 2017 WGP:
Expand12 September 2019 - 8 September 2019
I think the dates in the opening post might be wrong. 
The draw for the Final Six has been made:
Pool A =
Pool B =
I would be surprised if either and/or makes it through to the semis.
Serbia! 
3 - 1
Through to the semis! 4/4 of our teams in team sports through to the final 4!
The Netherlands still in the running for 2nd place in pool B, which is the pool with USA, China, Serbia and Italy. 
Simple win by the Dutch women over the Italian team. Now it's almost sure that have qualified for the quarter finals.
Dutch women lost 3-2 against team USA, but winning these two sets will put extra pressure on Italy. The Netherlands now have 3 points, where 0 points were expected, so all in all a good start for the Dutch team.
Great win against China! The Dutch somehow managed to turn another 1-2 around, just like they did during the WGP.
Amazing bronze medal for the Dutch women after beating China and Russia, both in five sets. Russia even had 4 match points in the third set.
The Dutch girls have made incredible progress in the past two years. I'm curious to see what they can do in Rio.
What a weird second set, where 
suddenly managed to raise its level, but then it dropped again during the third.
Deserved victory for , but what a weird scoreline.

It would be a surprise, but don’t underestimate the Dutch when it comes to messing up an important game.
