20 Times Liberos Shocked the World !!!

Nice. Oh, well played, Tsukita. And it's France on the front foot. Oh, what a pick up! Absolutely incredible defence by Japan. I didn't even see that. Yamamoto bagged. Taxi for Yamamoto. Making a difference on the service line. Goes it to Falco who over bumps again. Oh, what a dig by Shoji. What can Russell do? Oh, he's missed. He's missed. Unbelievable. I can't believe Shoji dug this up. He had to be in the most perfect position. Look at this. He's right there, way deep. He almost had his butt on the ground. Went huge from Couric after a big pick up from the libero. Yamamoto's correct. He's been doing those kind of plays his entire life. I mean, he's just so comfortable. What a pick up. That's incredible. Ogawa. That's Japan. That's how they play. Soak up the pressure. They deal with a big booming hit. Eye to the middle and then a ball out wide. How many blockers? Oh, well, you're not going to put everybody in. Then I'll use the space you left behind. Thank you. So he must have just been. That was very close, you know. Nowacic, he'd jumped from behind the three meter line. Yeah, look at that. Just behind him. Then he's able to jump over and set in front of him. That's a back jab. Pick up from behind the line. That's promising from Nowacic. A powerful serve. It's in. Nowacic got there. And then the pipe. What a finish. No wonder Martin Lebedews' arms are raised outstretched. What a great spike. ...competitive. Can Serbia finish this one out? On the outside. Remains in. Beautiful play there by Petkovic. And Petkovic. Wow. Man, it's out of the back row to slice off that cross-court angle. About five meters off the net and on the sideline. This is awesome. What a swing. If Joust is OK, play on. Wide again. Didn't touch Palacios. But he's put it into the fans. And as much as they... Looks like they've just let somebody's son come on to play. No disrespect at all to Kravic. It's great. Mibreau is on as a defender. That's an excellent play. Good up and well. Great pick-up. Shoji. And Russell works the block. This is some excellent play from the USA at the business end of this first set. Zaitsev goes for it. Nice one. Palazzo. Tipped over. That's easy pick-up for Namir. And he's still in it. Big swing. Cross. Nice fast ball out to Lavia for a sharp angle. A good swing shot. A defensive shot. Holland, Dutch, people like 18 and 7. André Guyen. Joust strike good. Good finishing by Cebul. Zandia. Vardy. Mistimed. Well read by Slovenia. It's up to the middle. The whip. And finally. Amin using some power off the block. That's just a smart play as well. He knew the block was there. Going. Again to Zatorski. He forced Slipka to set. Oh, great up. Outside to Cebul. He's got a couple of hands in front of him. And the cover is no good. Oh. Slovenia had that point. Two players on the floor trying to get the cover. Great. Great pick up from Haas. That's a net touch against Germany. They're all looking to say who touched it. Now, it is not often, if ever, that the referee. Great up from Zatorski. And it'll come back. The middle attack is covered again from Zatorski. Then the crowd kind of hypes up and the longer the rally goes, you can feel the energy building and building and building. And when Iran gets the point, it's almost like it just falls totally flat. It's so unfair because this is an incredible play by Tukta to get that ball, take some speed off of it and force it to. Right now, nine points away from winning this match against Bulgaria. Their final match of week two. Oh, Thales. Great up. Free ball. Whoa. Tough free ball given by Bruno. And Asparuo. He's entered this match in the second set and he has been on fire. So he came in for Nikolov. Love to see that as a middle blocker, whenever you get an overpass, it's just like on a plate. Oh, Mazic strong swing. Slipka lefty on the outside into the block. Recycled. He's going to go again and that's a push. Ball still alive, but doesn't make it way back over the net. Slipka really smart player when it comes to that shot out there. Didn't try to swing on the first. Harich. Harich very soft float serve. Still up. Great dig from Pekovic. Out to the backcourt and a beautiful stuff. It looks like Serbia can do no wrong. Everything China is throwing at them. They are returning. And look at this set as well. Wang had been on his knees, falling to the ground, still able to set middle. That was so impressive. But that did a good job against the Netherlands today. Kiemink through the middle. Good dig. Oh, finish on the outside. Bit of fancy footwork. Good take, good defense. Their middle gets going, but that's a good dig. Free ball opportunity. Iran has a chance. They'll go big on the outside. The dig is still good. Michieletto runs it down free. Side step is dug. Amin again goes cross in the same spot over and over again. That spot really sharp cross is working for Amin. Man, they look out of breath and rightfully so. What a hard effort by Iran. Geez, that set's coming from basically behind him. Touch. Russell once again just comes up with the goods. He's been so good in this match. Gets it off of Zimmermann and away. Taken early. Koprevica steps in. Oh, Luke Perry does beautifully. As does Koprevica. Oh, Kuljic can't find the hands. And Australia are on a heater. Five-point lead. Now a two-point lead.
