 as well

Sure, forgot about them.

 

Although unlike for Serbia and China I still can see them not qualify directly, although that's partly because of how the group is playing out so far.

So is anyone happy with how their team is doing?

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

 

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  )

 

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 laughable opponents so far)

Canada is improving as a team, but I mean this is ridiculous…

Must win set for our OQT chances…
