Canada take the fourth set 25-11, and the match against Ukraine!

Best case scenario for Canada, 5 - 2 victories, 14 points. It’s hard to see not least 2 of the remaining rivals topping this.

If for instance both Serbia and Dominican Republic have 3-1 victories tomorrow, they will finish in front of Canada, irrespective of the result of the Sunday matches. if they win 3-2 tomorrow, one point on Sunday will do to defeat Canada, but perhaps not to finish in the top 2.

 

Either China or NL will be at 4-1, 12 or 13 points after today’s match. So even if the winning team today, loses tomorrow, a victory on Sunday will put them at 5-2, with at least 14, but perhaps 16 points.

Given that the 4 rival teams play each other, each result that’s positive for Canada in respect to one team, will at the same time be negative in respect to one of the others.

I was very confident about Brazil in this tournament before it started, but after the game against Bulgaria I was already expecting this result, plus we had this sad news that happened earlier today. 

 

Overall, I'm not satisfied with this team. Let's see if we can beat Belgium and Japan to at least get the second quota.

So far the Dutch team is heavily outgunned, everything points towards a 3-0 victory for China.

A bit better, but still 0-2 down. Hard to see how to come back from this. A defeat will almost certainly spell the end of Dutch aspirations here.

2 -2 woww

Just looking at Canada, it's pretty crazy you can go 5-2 in the qualifying tournament and be (potentially) ranked in the top 10 in the world and still not make the Olympics.
