Can i have 2 wishes: a clean win for us and a win for Canada.  I'll be a good boy, i promise.

Netherlands with very bad luck. Looks like they finish third in poule B, which means Poland, Russia and Argentina in the next round. No chance for us against all those three opponents.

Iran just survived Finland. still thanks to Kolakovic they wasted 1 point here. Kolakovic didn't even put Mousavi and Marandi in the list underestimating Finland and our reserve libero was terrible in everything making it very hard for the setter . also our 17 years old MB (who has a bright future ahead) wasn't just ready for this level in such atmosphere and made so many mistakes. it was like playing in Helsinki ! at some point we had 4 Under-20 players in the court at the same time it's great to use young players but not all of them together and not in middle of a world championship !

 

I just hope wasting this one point doesn't hurt us at the end . one thing is for sure that we need at least 2 wins in next round to stand a chance. which will be very hard since we will get a very tough group.

Netherlands is going quite well, I think they will have some real chances, although difficult.

Nope. even if France wins in 3 sets, they won't surpass Netherlands in the table. remember the number of win is the first tiebreak and not the points. you will be 3rd only if Canada wins the next 3 sets which is unlikely after being 2 sets down.

No, only the points against the teams that go through to the next round. Argentina will start the second round with 1 win, 2 losses and 2 points.

Oh yes, you're right. Hopefully France will win the match against Canada. Besides that, they need to. Otherwise they take no wins to the second round.
