As expected of the fans, the day of the World Championship Women's Volleyball Championship took place with very unexpected results. In particular, it is the “horse fall” of the United States signaling the instability of the defending champions of the Olympic champion.
In the latest match, before an opponent is not too strong as Poland, the US is expected to have a gentle victory. However, with the weak performance, the US lost to Poland for the first time in 12 years and also indirectly helped the opponent have the advantage in the race to the quarterfinals.
In the earliest match of the day, Japan had a dream starting to win the first check against Italy. However, when Egonu's team squeezed the squad and smashing the “hot machine”, a failure was unavoidable for the girls of cherry.
Thailand also caused regret when losing to the final team in the German table. This defeat made the opportunity of this team no longer much when the last two matches had to encounter Serbia and the United States.
China against a weak opponent like Puerto Rico had a gentle victory without too much effort. However, the performance of this team is not too good and will need to improve if they want to go deeply in this year's tournament.
Belgium continues to raise hope in the race with opponents when winning 3-0 victory over the South American representative Argentina. However, the opportunity for this team is not much when they will meet two strong strong opponents, China and Brazil in the last two matches.
Serbia followed its impressive achievement with a light 3-0 victory over Dominican, which made the race to win the quarter-final tickets of this group to be more difficult than ever.
Meanwhile, Tho Nhy Ky also won a 3-0 victory over Canada thereby rising to rank second on the ranking of the US team. The quarterfinal ticket was almost firmly in the hands of this team.
