Australia

The team of Roberto Santilli smashed Italians on away court in three sets 3-0 (25-16, 25-18, 25-21).

Before the start of the World League, the Australians had been rated as underdogs in Pool A among Brazil, Italy and Serbia! This is how Australia responded!

Italy couldn’t do anything against Edgar & co. who were great during the whole match! 

Thomas Edgar was the man of the match with 22 points! Paul Sanderson contributed with 12, while Luca Vettori had 15 on home side!

The fight for the first two places will be uncertain until the very end!
