Iran Men's Volleyball National Team @Rio

[ehsan singapore]

now that iran won, we beat egypt we are there, if poland cant get points will be good for us, and if we beat russia we can be top 3

^^we need to avoid Italy in the next round. They are playing top volleyball right now. If we can get the 3rd position so we play the 2nd place team from the other group it will be best for us.

Not so sure the others are any easier, with the possible exception of Canada.

I don't care who we play in this entire tournament as long as we don't face France until the final lol they're the bane of Iranian success

It doesn't matter if we finish 2nd or 3rd in the group.

There will be drawing of lots.

The 2nd in group will face the 2nd or 3rd from the other group (depends on the draw).

The only thing that is determined is that the 1st place will play against the 4th place.

i think if we meet canada or italy is ok, brazil is the one we need to avoid, honestly i think france wont make it though, they will lose to canada today

[Narse]

yes in the case of brazil, there will be massive referee decisions against iran, given that brazil has won only 2 medals so far.

is not the refree is just that brazil at home are good, even though we have beaten them before

Fantastic win by TM! Like I said, TM has built their confidence and will only get better. They truly are the dark horses in the tournament.

I have to fix it a bit

if we finish 3rd, we will play the 2nd team either from Group A or B.
3rd placers won't play each other. that's for sure

so if we finish 3rd, there is 50% chance to get Argentina in QF ! that's why we have to try to finish 3rd in our group.

I see... now that makes it very interesting.

Are you sure about this? Wikipedia tells a different story.

Things are likely to be shaking up a bit. Argentina is actually not that strong this tournament...we just had a very bad game against them and still kept it close in each set. Poland thrashed them 3-0.

Does anyone have a link to full Iran-Poland and/or Iran-Cuba games with English commentary?

yup but argentina will qualify unless cuba or egypt beat them and honeslty i dont think that will happen we can still be third if we beat egypt and russia, and even 2nd with 10 points, if we beat egypt and russia
