TOKYO :Top-ranked United States crushed the Dominican Republic in straight sets on Wednesday and will face Serbia in the women's Olympic volleyball semi-finals, while South Korea stunned Turkey in a thrilling full-set match, securing a spot in the top four.
"We don't have one player we depend on. We have 12. We have the mindset that we're all starters and we each have a job to do," Drews said. "In Europe, United States and South America, it's very physical volleyball with emphasis on power, height and speed," Korea head coach Stefano Lavarini said. "We know Serbia are a really good team but the problem is not Serbia, it's our game," Italy's middle blocker, Anna Danesi, said."It was like we were never in the game. We have to try to learn from our mistakes."
