Group D is the most difficult group with powerhouses like US, Italy and France plus teams like Iran and Belgium who are no pushovers themselves. Infact, Iran -atleast currently- could be considered a powerhouse itself making it a pretty tough group to play in.

^^Welcome back and you are right Belgium and Iran are no pushovers and I watched some of their games on youtube, they are not bad they will even bring a test I don't know if you can call Iran a powerhouse just yet. They did a nice job to qualify out of a top group but USA's B team wacked Iran pretty good. Also, Belgium has a pretty good volleyball league in Europe. I would say they are in the good but not elite category. At the very least we can agree that Iran and Belgum are god so you have powerhouse teams like USA, France and Italy but at the same time you have good teams like Iran and Belgium so there are no easy teams. Still no matter what happens to Iran, they still managed to beat Italy, Cuba, Brazil and Poland just to get here and they beat USA B in the first set I believe.

I will tell you this much our volleyball is light years ahead of our football!

Poland won the opening match against Serbia 3-0 .. 25-19 25-18 25-18

Didn't expect them to over-come Serbia that easily !!

Where can we live stream the game for free? I guess I need to wake up at 4AM tomorrow.I didn't expect Serbia to get punked like that either they are not a bad team plus they obviously have some tall players. Iran better shape up and learn from their US loss if they play like that against Italy, the Italians will destroy Iran. The good news is Iran defeated this team before so it can be done.
