Top four teams could advanced into the top eight of the World championships.

 

Downing the first two sets, the Netherlands, who kept a five-win three-loss record in the tournament, played its best volleyball to beat China 21-25, 17-25, 25-23, 25-22, 15-12.

 

Chaine Staelens led the game with 28 points for the Netherlands, while Manon Flier and captain Ingrid Visser added 20 and 17 respectively.

Tieing 5-5 in the fourth set, the Netherlands had a 4-1 run to take control and never looked dangerous. After Li Shan of China had an fast-breaking attack to make it 21-21, the Netherlands concluded the set with a 4-1 run and Staelens scored the set points with a kill for the Netherlands with 25-22.
