Our men's national volleyball team U21 suffered a serious blow at the World Championship in China. Our only opposite hitter Georgi Bachvarov will miss the remaining three matches of the tournament after suffering a muscle injury in the 0:3 loss to the USA in the Round of 16 phase.
According to the medical staff, his condition requires rest and recovery to avoid a more serious complication.
The first challenge for Ventsislav Simeonov's team is tomorrow at 06:00 Bulgarian time against Kazakhstan. The match will be crucial for our team's subsequent path in the placement rounds.
If we win, we will face the winner of the Argentina – Japan clash for 9th-12th place. If we lose, we will face the loser of the same match in a battle for 13th-16th position.
