Argentina playing terrible

Conte some smart hitting of Le Goffs block. Aiming high and getting off fingers. Seen the odd blocker actually realise that, is risky, and dropping the block as they hit,

Argentina playing terrible

It should’ve been Italy. Would’ve been if Zaytsev didn’t get injured. Shame.

Italy blew it. Should not have lost that match considering the position they were in in each set.

Agreed, you just want to see the best playing off for medals.

Argentina with a good run here, but France get 2 straight to jump back out.

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Argentina coach odds on a full blown punch up?

 

[manureid]

Viva La France.

Glad they won. Argentina players a bit like they are in soccer. Moan a lot. If they could dive and roll around they would

 

[drd23]

Scenes! France are through!

 

[Drummond]

It all clicked for France tonight, clinical performance. Far too good. They’ve really built some momentum here. As hard as it is to see them matching ROC, maybe they’ll give it a shake?

 

[Trojan90]

France through the the Gold medal match vs ROC. Good effort from 4th in pool stage, knocked off Poland and already have a win over ROC this tournament.

Argentina's good run of 5 straight wins leaves them fighting out with neighbours Brazil for Bronze. Can't see Brazil losing that one.

Now onto the girls. Serbia vs USA will be a beauty.

 

[SA HAWK]

Missed it due to watching the handball

Sucks there are no replays.

 

[samFFC]

France just dominant since mid-Poland game. Wowee!

 

[manureid]

Pretty sure I heard earlier in the tournament that the Brazil coach was taking over France post Olympics. He would be pretty happy with what he has seen.

 

[manureid]

Yanks up comfortably in 1st, although fighting to get the set point with some good Serbian blocking

 

[Trojan90]

Big Bosko trying her best to keep Serbia alive here.

 

[Drummond]

Comfortable win. Assuming Brazil get up tonight, that sets up a brilliant gold medal match.

 

[Trojan90]

Yanks too good. They're in some pretty good form at the moment.

 

[manureid]

Yanks too good. They're in some pretty good form at the moment.

The fact that probably the best hitter they have is out injured and they still won 3- 0 tells you a lot. The player they brought in to play in her place as opposite pretty much dominated

 

[Trojan90]

Game time! Lets go Brazil.

 

[Trojan90]

1st set down for the girls, Rosamaria on fire. Hopefully Korea can put up more of a fight from here.

 

[The_Todd07]

Everything else has turned to shit since the Boomers were up 15.
At least my favourite non-Aussie team can still perform.
Rosamaria is killing it

 

[drd23]

Looks like this semi final is a bit of a non-contest unfortunately

 

[Trojan90]

Everything else has turned to sh*t since the Boomers were up 15.
At least my favourite non-Aussie team can still perform.
Rosamaria is killing it

I've adopted them as honorary Aussies!

 

[The_Todd07]

Great rally

Right colors afterall
