In front of 5,500 fans in Palace of Culture and Sports in Varna, France quickly smashed home side and booked the last ticket for the Final Six!

From the very beginning of the match, it was obvious that Bulgaria will have a tough job to stop undefeated France, who lost only five sets in 14 matches!

The first set went very well for Tillie’s side, while in the second set Bulgarian players managed to decrease 16-10 lead of the rival. But, they didn’t manage to take over the lead so they had to surrender. 

In the third part of the match, home team gave very strong resistance but French players didn’t allow any surprise!

Antonin Rouzier, who scored an ace for the win, ended match with 18 points. Le Roux added 13, while Ngapeth had 10. On home side, Vlado Nikolov scored 9.

Congratulation France , Tille family vs Rezende family it will be fun to watch , I wish John Speraw had a son playing for USA so that we could have Speraw family as well 🙂 , no doubt one of these teams will win the FINAL6 (France,USA,Brazil) with respect to the other three teams. and one point about Argentina, Does anyone know why Velasco uses Uriarte as the starting setter and not De Cecco?
