Iran vs Australia HD with English commentary:

[Narse]

I have read that the top Asian team and the top 3 teams (excluding Asia) will quality to Rio. So Iran needs to be the best Asian team or become first/second?! It sounds easy.

yes, I have understood it the same way.

[Malavani]

nice come back

[AIrani]

Tabrik.

Iran was behind and lost the first two sets. The first set was very close though and could have gone either way.

Thanks to Iranian players, they played well and the coach made good substitutions. Iran won sets 3 and 4. The fifth set was very close, but Iran won it.

All players were happy to win against Canada. I am happy too.

[Nokhodi]

Amazing comeback for Iran against Canada. They didn't give up hope and really made good plays in key moments. We had some luck too but you need to be good to be lucky.

[ehsan singapore]

is a good win , now we have 5 points which is crucial

[persian-eagle-13]

another crucial game is France, we need to get at least 1 pt from France

[irani8perspolis]

Australia lost first set to Venzuela. 18-14 Australia in set 2.
