Not that I'm going to any events but this is massively disappointing. :(
China vs Russia in the beach volleyball, Algeria vs Mrs JSAO in the indoor volleyball.
11-11 between Russia and China in the decider. :popcorn:
Match point saved for Russia.
Russia win 16-14 in the deciding set!
China, the bronze medalists from 2008 have crashed out. Great set.
Is this thread for real volleyball as well as beach?
If so, going tonight
USA vs Korea
Brazil vs Turkey (not sure if we've got tickets to this one or just the first game, MrsL got these tickets)
:dance:
Yeah it is. I forgot to see who won out of Algeria vs Japan in the full volleyball.
Give us a wave later. And a GW banner.
"Where's your watch Derek?"
"Oh I broke it whilst playing....er...volleyball"
Will do, and I salute your ability to watch every single minute of every sport even though theoretically that's not possible.Quote:

Ooh, it is both games :dance:
2nd one should be good, think Brazil are the reigning champions.
GB vs Russia is on in the women's volleyball now, losing though currently.
At least I will see JPN vs GB, as they are in the same group
GB world ranking 64th - host nation privilege s :bow:
:lol:
Make it count GB.
Russia easily beat GB. :lol:
Brazil - Turkey still going on! Turkey close to taking it to a deciding set too.. :wacko:
And they do! Jeez Laweez.
And still...
Brazil did win in the end I think - unless I dreamt it.
They did. At about 1am.Quote:

Will upload some pics/video in due course.
:sleep: as in "I'm tired", not "It was boring"
Was brilliant although it does go on a bit, not a sport I'll be watching regularly.
Yep, I've been sort of enjoying it - but first to 25 points a set plus a billion timeouts is a little excessive. There are only really two ways to score too: Belting it. Blocking a belt of it.Quote:

Quite like the volleyball actually, I wouldn't mind playing it myself.
GB. :lol:
They're not very good.
Bulgaria win 3-0 :lol:
25-18 25-20 26-24
GB should have won the 3rd set but the classic choking which infects all Brit sportsmen came in to play

GB bt Canada in the women's beach volleyball. :bow:
Beach volleyball on this morning....though, annoyingly, it's a the mens on TV at the moment :(
Some of the Brazilian team were quite ## on Saturday. I did take some pics, if I've got any decent ones will upload them later.
China beat Turkey 3-1
Volleyballs a pretty decent watch
GB womens beat Algeria 3-2
First ever Olympic win for them. Algeria are ranked 50 odd places above them
GB :bow:
