Cedric Db TOP 200

@PierreFoucault I'm afraid so but, trying to be understandable towards him , he endured some technical troubles earlier in the match, particularly at the end of Set 4, at 23-24 for Japan, when he requested a change that was not allowed, because of what is (famously) known as the collapsing, during this particular match, of the new tablet/calling system set for the competition. Unfortunately for Thailand, his attitude has probably made his team out of the match. Nonetheless, Japan had enough heart and talent to come back from 6-12 to 12-12 and then win the match.

The legendary, suffocating, controversial, challenge-tablet-apocalypse-y, 2-red-cards-y and above all great match Japan v Thailand from 2016 Women's World Olympic Qualification Tournament in Japan
