Wow, obvious kitchen foot foul that the referee missed just after 26:09. Watch the guy in black T shirt as he does the Ernie. He steps into the kitchen with his entire left foot, then volleys the ball with an Ernie before putting that left foot back onto the court. Referee gave them the side out, so didn't see it. Both feet have to touch court outside of the kitchen before he can legally volley the ball if he has stepped into the kitchen.

Yeah, that was Lee Whitwell style erne

The same player did an actual volley while his left foot was completely inside the kitchen just after 36:08 and referee let play go on, but for that sequence they lost the point anyway. Then just after 38:06 he did the same thing and won the point with no comment from anybody. Do referees not make foot foul calls at the kitchen?

Clear kitchen violations. Referee either didn’t catch it or they are not supposed to be watching for those.

Some of the most egregious kitchen violations I've ever seen. Toes touching the line is one thing but that dude in the black is putting his whole foot in. Can't believe no one is seeing that/calling it out.

I'd be a 4.9 DUPR too if I could play volleys from in the kitchen 3-5 times a match. 🤔

Hahaha. Right. The guy knows the rules too, because at 7:55 he calls a foot fault on his opponent when that guy Ernies and his toe touches the line. Still, this dude puts his entire foot in the kitchen every time he Ernies or attempts to Ernie.

What is the ref watching. Main responsibility is to watch the kitchen line

Lots of unforced errors for 5.0
@callees879016 күн бұрын
this can't be 5.0 surely? Big guy with blue shorts constantly off balance and is letting too many balls bounce that should be taken out of air. Watch the smaller guy in dark. He takes ball out of air and takes away time from blue shorts. Blue short and partner serve returns are way to shallow and they are conceding the kitchen too easily.

Why would you talk about something you clearly do not understand. Again it is 5.0 gold medal match with deep bracket. Each team played 6 games to get here, at least half of them against other 5.0 teams. We see you know some terminology, but anything beyond just words? Not really.
