Slovenia pulled off a thrilling 3:2 victory (25:21, 23:25, 23:25, 25:18, 17:15) against Serbia in Ljubljana to book their place in the Volleyball Nations League final tournament. The dramatic win was made even more emotional as veteran setter Dejan Vinčić bid farewell to international volleyball after 238 matches with the national team.
With Rok Možič leading the way with 24 points and support from Nik Mujanović’s 15, Slovenia overcame a mid-match slump to win the final two sets. Their sixth-place finish sets up a quarterfinal showdown with France later this month in China.
In Gdańsk, Poland overcame France 3:2 (32:30, 20:25, 25:20, 23:25, 15:12) in another closely fought encounter. Wilfredo Leon starred with 30 points, helping Poland bounce back after two straight losses. Both teams had already qualified, but still delivered an intense, crowd-pleasing battle.
