Women’s Main Round: Day 2
The first match of the day could see the start of a set of results which will see Chinese Taipei qualify through to the semi-finals, should they beat Argentina in the second match of the session.
That opening game sees Croatia and Paraguay play each other with the Croats knowing a win against the bottom team will guarantee them a final four place, even if they end the day joint on points with Chinese Taipei - should they beat the hosts later - after the Europeans beat them 2:0 on the second matchday.
If Croatia lose and the Asian team lose it is the same progression as both teams start the day on two points each. A win for Chinese Taipei against the hosts in the second match, combined with a Croatia loss will mean a semi-final spot for the Asian team.
A win for Argentina will put the pressure on both Hungary and Netherlands in the final match, with the group winners title up for grabs.
