Turkey with first VNL victory before coming to Burgas

The Turkish men's national team achieved its first victory in the 2025 Nations League, decisively defeating hosts China 3:0 (22-25, 21-25, 20-25) in a match that lasted 79 minutes. The Turks demonstrated powerful play and superiority in all key elements, despite the support of the Chinese crowd at the Qujiang Sports Complex.
