After 7 days of the 2022 Women's Volleyball World Championships, all teams have played at least 3 games, and those who are fast progress have already played 4 group matches. Currently, 10 teams have secured their place in the top 16 in advance: Italy, Netherlands , Dominican, Poland , Turkey , Thailand, the United States, Serbia , China, Brazil . South Korea, Croatia and Cameroon were eliminated in advance without playing in the group stage. Chinese women's volleyball team 's opponent in the fourth round was the Czech women's volleyball team. Due to the previous three consecutive losses, the Chinese women's volleyball team basically booked the victory and 3 points of this game.
A Group: 1. Italy 4 wins 0 loss 12 points 2. Netherlands 3 wins 0 loss 9 points 3. Belgium 2 wins 1 loss 6 points 4. Puerto Rico 1 win 3 loss 3 points 5. Kenya 1 win 3 points 3 points 6. Cameroon 0 win 4 losses 0 points
Italian women's volleyball has obvious leading advantage in this group. On the premise of hiding the main starter in this round, it still defeated Kenya women's volleyball 3-0, and established the top 2 positions in this group early. The last round against Dutch women's volleyball is just a competition to compete for the top spot in the group. When the Dutch women's volleyball qualifiers have also advanced, it is probably difficult to pose a threat to the Italian women's volleyball team. The top 3 of this group have already secured the rematch quota ahead of schedule. Cameroon has all lost and was eliminated early. The fourth position will be between Puerto Rico and Kenya. The last round of the group stage is also a life-and-death battle between the two teams qualifying.
B Group: 1. Dominicans 3 wins 1 loss 10 points 2. Poland 3 wins 1 loss 9 points 3. Turkey 3 wins 1 loss 9 points 4. Thailand 3 wins 1 loss 8 points 5. Croatia 0 wins 4 losses 0 points 6. South Korea 0 wins 4 losses 0 points
The situation in this group is relatively chaotic, which also reflects that the gap between the teams is small, especially the top 4 in the group The position competition may continue until the last round of the group stage. After the four rounds of the game, no team maintained a complete victory. The Dominicans unexpectedly rose to the first place in this group. The host Polish women's volleyball team lost 1-3 to the Dominicans in the fourth round and temporarily ranked second, but the top 4 teams all had 3 wins and 1 losses. I am afraid that the competition for the top spot in the group will continue until the last moment. The winners of Thailand against Dominicans and Turkey against Poland will win the top 2 in the group. Croatia and South Korea both achieved four consecutive losses and were eliminated early, and the match between the two teams in the last round will become a battle of honor.
C Group: 1. The United States has won 3 wins 0 lost 9 points 2. Serbia has won 3 wins 0 lost 8 points 3. Germany has won 2 lost 6 points 4. Canada has 1 win 2 lost 3 points 5. Bulgaria 0 win 3 lost 1 point 6. Kazakhstan 0 win 3 lost 0 points
The strength of the US women's volleyball and the Serbian women's volleyball team in this group is the best. Although there were minor twists and turns in the game, it still maintained a complete victory and has basically locked in the top 2 positions in the group. The German women's volleyball team has a great hope of qualifying. The last chance to rematch will be between Bulgaria and Canada. Judging from the previous games, the overall threat of the Canadian team is not as big as Bulgaria. The record of the two teams determines the ticket to the last rematch.
D Group: China 3 wins, 0 losses, 9 points 2. Brazil 3 wins, 0 losses, 9 points 3. Japan 2 wins, 1 loss, 6 points 4. Argentina 1 wins, 2 losses, 3 points 5. Czech Republic 0 wins, 3 losses, 0 points 6. Colombia 0 wins, 3 losses, 0 points
China, Brazil and Japan were optimistic about the top 3 in the group before the game. The Chinese team will face the Czech team in the 4th round. It is difficult to win the opponent, and even lost to the Argentine women's volleyball team. They are already at a disadvantage in the competition. The Chinese women's volleyball team is expected to sweep the Czech women's volleyball team and win 4 consecutive victories to continue to top the group rankings. Brazil and Japan will have a direct conversation in the fourth round. The victory and loss of both sides will also have a significant impact on the ranking of the third-tier group. Previously, Brazilian women's volleyball team defeated Japan in the World Women's Volleyball League finals to advance to the semi-finals, and the Brazilian women's volleyball team has stronger attack power online. The South American derby between Argentina and Colombia is a key battle for the right to qualify in the group. If Argentina can win, it will basically ensure that it will advance to the top 16 places.
