France on its way to the Volleyball World Cup quarter-finals. The Blues imposed themselves, in pain, 3 sets to 2 against Japan this Monday, September 5 in Ljubljana. “We are relieved, but there is still a little frustration. We have the impression that we were a little dominated in the match”, reacted the star player of the Blues, Earvin Ngapeth, at the microphone of L’Equipe TV.
The French volleyball team will now find one of its best enemies: Italy in the quarter-finals. The match is scheduled for Wednesday, September 7 at 5:30 p.m. The Blues are aiming for a first world champion title, a year after the Olympic gold won in Tokyo.
