Olympic Qualifiers for Volleyball(Iran playing)

[footballeirani]

And we lost 3-1.. Australia now much closer to olympics

As for us like always we find a way to **** things up, after that first set we did not do jack. This is just pathetic...

[Sharkie]

So what's going to happen now? I don't think we're eliminated..

[footballeirani]

We are pretty much doomed, Australia needs to lose big and we need to win big...

[footballeirani]

Just read something interesting...if Australia finishes first, Serbia second, and us third we still qualify. Either Australia has to majorly suck or they win out and Serbia finishes second for us to have a chance.

Dang, that's a harsh loss! What is the scenario that we go to Olympics? I think the best team and the best asian team get the 2 spots to go to olympics.

Yes if an Asian team finishes first in the tournament, then the next best team will go through as well. SO basically we need to hope Australia finishes first now!

[shahramii]

how many would go to Olympic from this tournament ? couse we are now int the third place

[oldcoach]

The winner and the top Asian team get to go to the Olympics

We beat Peurto Rico 3-1. They were dead last and had lost all their prior matches 3-0.

Australia and Serbia play next. We need Australia to beat the crap out of Serbia.

I still think we are not playing as well as we should. We certainly are sub par with our serves.

Wait a sec! We need Australia Lose 2 matches an we win all. We can win against Serbs but not them. They are weak. Their win against us was just accidental. I think both china and Serbia will beat them.

One thing:

If Australia wins the tournament and Iran finishes 2nd what happens?

[footballeirani]

^^ Then Iran and Australia advance. Australia lost to Serbia 3-0...we need them to lose again. Iran pretty much has to beat Serbia now which is kare hazrate fil...

[footballeirani]

Iran is playing Venezuela at the moment and we are up 2-0 and about to wrap it up in the third set.

[footballeirani]

Iran won against Venezuela comfortably 3-0. Venezuela along with Peurto Rico are not a huge factor in this tourney. With this win we move to the second place for the moment. Australia will play Japan later today. We need Australia to lose for us to have a chance.

Our next game is against Serbia...a really good team that is leading the table...we sorta need to win that game. So like I said we need to do something amazing in our next game and hope for Australia to lose.

Also have to add that our guys served a lot better than previous games! Lets go get this done Iran!
