I just did some math on the Italy/Serbia/Dominican Republic group.
Let's assume that Domincan Republic and italy will win their games against Puerto Rico.

 

Then there are two possible outcomes:

 

1) Serbia looses against Dominican Republic

-> 1st place in group I goes to Domincan Republic

-> 2nd place in group I goes to Italy (and will potentially face USA in the QF)

 

2) Serbia wins against Dominican Republic

-> Serbia/Italy/Dominican Republic are tied 

-> next criteria is the difference in baskets for the matches between the teams with the same number of points 

-> Italy is already fixed at 160-163 = -3

-> Domincan Republic is currently at +5

-> Serbia is at -2

=> It is not possible for Italy to finish in 1st place (and avoid USA in the QF). It is possible that Italy will finish in 3rd place (if Seribia wins with less than 8 points).

 

OK...first assumption already failed. :facepalm:

So I would say...everything is possible in group I (all teams tied with 7 points)

Looks like :PUR got the win over :DOM that essentially turns the final group game into an elimination match. Here are the permutations and rankings:

 

Winner :ITA :PUR
:DOM

1.  :DOM

2. :ITA

1.  :PUR

2. :DOM

:SRB

1.  :ITA

2. :SRB

1.  :SRB

2. :PUR

Wow, so a win for the QF but no team can gain 1st place by their own.

Yup and with :USA looming for second place (unless they throw their final game) things will be a bit tense. Italy/Puerto Rico will occur first so Dominican Republic/Serbia will know if they are playing for first or second in the group.

At least it is fair as DomRep an Serbia cannot both reach the finals.

And even if DomRep/Serbia will know that they will face USA in the QF it is nonetheless better than loosing in the group stage.

To be honest, better for us to lose to DR and not bother with 3 more meaningless games in the WC.

    • It's hard to believe it was still in this calendar year      
    • In last year, we were were happy with Brignone's wins, and today we're excite that della Mea is in the top 10... It's hard to imagine a bigger fall... And Goggia should give up on the giant slalom and focus on the speed events – Vonn isn't wasting time on the giant slalom, but is training for downhill and SG. Goggia last one finished on the podium in the giant slalom in march 2018, and she has no any chance of winning an Olympic medal at the regular competition. It's a waste of time and energy to finish 8th or 9th and risk injury. And we have to accept that without Brignone, we have no chance of winning a medal in the giant slalom in Cortina, and that's it.
    • yeah, just like Anna Trocker earlier Today   I think this is the best way to blow them    they're not ready for the world cup stage yet, but we're so bad right now that our coaches are digging deep
    • Some surprises and fun results so far at this year's Worlds. Like a few minutes ago, when  Harrysson made the 1/8 with another very good performance. Now he plays Jonny Clayton, who this afternoon made a stellar performance in a tough battle with Zonneveld. I don't see an easy match for Clayton, even though on paper he would have wished such an opponent for a 1/8 before the tournament.   Also i'm delighted that my fav Gary Anderson seems to be in good form, though at his age, he is prone to sudden bad matches at any time.
