The color of the medal is still unknown because Brazil need to play their last match against Japan which will determine the final standings. For now, Iran are on the second place but if Brazil win they will take the bronze medal.

Today, Iran defeated France 3-2 (38-36, 25-23, 22-25, 25-27, 15-11) and finally get to the podium which they missed in the last edition when they finished fourth.

Amir Ghafour scored 24 points followed by Mousavi 20 point while Trevor Clevenot scored 25 points for France.
