Bulgaria achieved a last-minute progression to the eliminations as they swept Finland in a direct duel for the last remained spot in Pool A for the next round. With this win, Bulgaria even skipped Greece in the charts and will go to the eighth-finals as the third-placed side.
Nasya Dimitrova was Bulgaria’s top scorer today with 11 points, while Mira Todorova made 4 kill blocks. Piia Korhonen scored 15 for Finland. Suvi Kokkonen made 71% positive reception.

Serbia is the best.
Eda is doing very good! Best scorer of Turkey so far.
Serbia is not the best! Watch China, Japan, Brasil and Italy!
