Thailand is unpredictable team, they can beat much better teams, but also flop against weaker ones. Random team. 

But this is huge surprise, considering all Pol vs Thai matches. 

In 15 matches since 2005, Poland has 11 victories. This is Thailand's first victory against Poland since 2018.

With the loss of Poland, the chance that Germany will get a ticket has increased again. The Netherlands already sees the misery: if two lower-ranked countries (Canada and Germany) qualify, the Netherlands will not go to the Olympic Games. That would be a huge downer.

Germany has to win against Slovenia first...it is not looking good. I think it will be 1-2 after three sets.

Wow! What a major result for Canada. Will be very close in this group, but Canada definitely has a good chance to qualify. 

China needs to have another throwaway game for that and even then. Group is wide open now at least.

I'm really happy...I expected them to lose games against :KOR:THA and others (not only vs "powehouses" like :POL and :USA)

 

meanwhile they're winning those matches and yesterday playing also with a lot of reserves of this team of 3rd tier players and yesterday we did even see our usual "libero" (a midget, in volleyball terms) playing in an attacking role (she did even smashed a pipe shot from the 2nd line :yikes: :roflmao:)

 

and all this, despite a setter that can't play a ball in the area of any hitter (not saying a precise pass, just a reasonably decent one) and "that man" on the bench

 

we're doing so much beyond expectations, I couldn't be happier and more surprised (even if we just played luoghable opponents so far) :yikes: :lol: :smoke:

Don’t worry Canada isn’t qualifying

And neither is Germany. They lost two sets against both Slovenia and South Korea and haven't even played the suppsedly stronger opponents yet. Even another 3:2 win would basically be the same as losing a game (three lost points in total).

I don't think that they will qualify either.

On the other hand: Poland just lost against Thailand while Germany won against them with 3-0.
I don't say that Germany is favourite against Poland, but it would not be sensational if they win this game as well.

But I don't see any chance against USA or Italy and they will have to win at least one of these two games.

 

I am not so familiar with the world ranking, but I assume that Germany could catch up a few points here.

No shock. I told you guys we are weak.

 

This is what you get when Wołosz is being a part-time NT player who only plays in the most important tournaments these days. The hype for this team was completely overblown by our media and of course now the shitstorm is coming :lol:

Game win difference preceeds points iirc,  so winning against both Poland and Italy would be enough (beating USA would be very unlikely to me)

 

If Germany lose either I don't see them qualify. For Canada to Q Serbia should win all their matches and the other teams in 2-5 should trade five set games all over.

    • Today is a day without Italians in the leads positions. I`m worried that they are not trying to revive this our sprint. There is only one Bosa and he is old. Pergher is young but she is also only one. It is a pity. After the Olympics they will probably 100% give up on the entire sprint. Our medal bag in Cortina will depend 90% on Ghiotto, just like it did on Fabris in Turin 2006. If Ghiotto will be in goodshape, he can even win 2 individual golds + a team medal. If not, it will be a flop. Apart from him, only Lollobrigida can compete in the mass start and possibly Giovannini in the men's mass start.

    • Yes, he is ones of the first supporters of Milei, owner of one of the most important stock market of Argentina (Bull market), he was peronist and for "unknown reasons" start to be libertarian.   Even being libertarian in my case, i have to admit that him is one of the dumbest of "Milei supporters" and a clown when  he is in TV, he made me feel  embarrassed in many occasions.   Camila Giorgi being with him is.......inconceivable.
