Canada vs ROC Match Preview
Canada is coming into this quarterfinal on the back of 2 wins and 3 losses with a total of 7 points from 5 games. However, the last pool game that they played, they looked listless against Poland who won the match 3-0. Canada would have to iron out their flaws if they have to challenge a top team in the form of ROC.
On the other hand, ROC had been ruthless to say the least in their group matches. Barring their loss to France 1-3, they haven’t conceded more than a single set in any of the other matches. ROC topped the Pool B by accumulating 12 points from 5 matches.
