#TeamYavbou will defend the World League title as they managed to book the ticket for Final Six in Krakow!

France vs. Poland

FRA vs. POL

France defeated the World champions Poland once again and secured the place at the Final Six! They are the fourth team that managed to book ticket after Serbia, Brazil and Poland. 

There are only two tickets left and main candidates are Italy and USA.

Let’s say a few words about the game between European champions and World Champions. After beating them in straight sets in Lodz, TeamYavbou defeated Poland in Nancy 3-1 (22-25, 30-28, 25-22, 25-19).

Antiga’s side managed to take the first set and was close to take the second but France somehow prevailed and took the second set which, as it turned out, was the key in this match.

Top scorers: Ngapeht 22, Rossard 20 – Kubiak 19, Konarski 14
