Until the guys in Taiwan can give us the meaty details:
USA defeated Japan in the semi-final 3-2.
Korea defeated Taiwan in the other semi-final and then proceeded to beat the USA 2-0 in the final.
GB got through the pools, but how, who and why, I don’t know yet.

Fantastic! Well done everyone! Out of the pools and first rounds and Quarter final to Korea! Thats fantastic. Really strong result.
I’m glad that Korea won it was only a matter of time. If you look at the Canada Japan match in Santa Clara the omens were already there. I think this will be good for the Japanese, and really motivate them to come back at it and raise their game.
Without competition and fresh challenges you will never grow.
But fantastic work for Team GB!

Yay…USA! We did the impossible. Even the Korean couldn’t do it. But we did it. We did it! No one else in the world beside the US can say that they beat the Japan.

JAPAN GOT BEATEN!!!?!?!?!! I wonder what they are thinking now. Good job to USA and esp. Korea, haha.
