A harder game than last time
Polish volleyball players won the first clash 3-0 without any major problems. Yesterday's result was similar, but all sets were not won with such a clear dominance. The Serbs set hard conditions. Ultimately, however, the Poles could enjoy the 3-0 victory (28-26, 28-26, 25-22).
“We haven't won anything yet.”
However, Piotr Nowakowski is not enthusiastic. After the match, he gave an interview to Eurosport, in which he stated clearly that "This match was different than our previous match against Serbia. The rivals played with a different lineup and a little better. Despite this, we managed to achieve the same result, which makes us very happy, but we haven't won anything yet. In the next match we have to show at least the same game to eliminate the Italians. It will be a really nice experience and a reward for the World Cup.”

The situation in the group of J.
After Thursday's victory, the Poles are in first place in group J. Despite this, Serbia is already guaranteed to advance to the semi-finals due to the so-called "small points". In the match against Poland they had to score at least 52 to be sure of advancement. Whether the White and Reds will also advance depends on the match against Italy. However, they do not necessarily have to win it - it is enough for them to win at least one set. The result 1:3 for the tournament hosts will still advance us to the semi-finals.
One unknown

Russia is eliminated from the tournament and goes for gold World Championships has been waiting since 1982, when the USSR national team stood on the highest step of the podium.
