India vs Iran (10:00 - Rio de Janeiro)
Brazil vs Spain (18:30 - Rio de Janeiro)
Our boys should blame themselves for blowing opportunity of reaching semi-final at this World championship ... Our choking against Serbia cost us place in the semis, we were leading 24-21 in 4th game before losing that ... What a missed opportunity by our youngsters.
In the last match of Pool our boys showed fighting performance against host and mighty Brazilian team ... They won the long first set in extra points but insted of taking control of the match they lost next 2 sets ... But in this match they made excellent fight back and won the fourth set easily ... Again very close fight in the fifth but again Indian boys prevailed in the extra points to complete memorable victory.
We ended last in the group behind Russia, Serbia and Brazil ... Now we will play matches for 5-8 classification places ... On 9th August we r facing our old nemesis Iran, against whom we struggled at Asian or World level tournament.
