Volleyball - World League 2016

[Bessos]

We are in such a shitty situation right now.
Actually we are supposed to be resting now and then get prepared for Olympics, working on our weaknesses.

Instead we are forced to carry on with the players fatigue, making the same kind of mistakes over and over possibly playing a weak Olympic tournament then.
And we can't give away the world League either as we might get relegated.

It's such a disgrace that Asia is the only continent where the continental champion doesn't qualify directly for Olympics.

Asia would be that continent where all the other federations shit on, if it wasn't for Japan and Australia.

The World League format is pretty confusing. Why are the hosts of the final round playing in the first round if they are gonna go through even if they finished last in their pool?

6 teams will progress from Iran's pool. Very competitive pool with 8 powerhouses including Iran. I honestly think even if we cant finish top 6 in our group and manage to finish 7th or 8th in our pool it will be good for us. We will play alot of games by the end of the first round, and even if we don't make the final round, we can rest for the olympics and already had a good preparation for the Olympics.

First set: Iran 25 - Argentina 22
Second set: Iran 25 - Argentina 20 this set was much closer until the end.
Third set: Iran 21 - Argentina 25 Iran did not play well in this set.
Fourth set: Iran 13 - Argentina 25 the worst performance from Iran. Players had many errors.
Argentina is playing better with more desire to win. Iranian players are lethargic and seem not interested.
Fifth set: Iran 15 - Argentina 11

Iran wins the game. Tabrik.

tm game is a big game, if we dont lose to serbia and brazil, at least get a point from each game

I glanced over Brazil's record in international volleyball. They're truly a great team. They have wont the World League, World Cup, World Championship and Olympics numerous times. They have made it to the finals of the Olympics 3 Olympics in a row.

Its amazing that any team can actually handle them.

Brazil is just too good. Iran won second set due to Brazil's mistakes.
Best wishes to Iranian athletes. Yes, Serbia has improved a lot. Iran has to have one win in each country to stay in top six.

Win for Brazil 3 - Iran 1
Getting one set from Brazil is good but not great.
