Without much effort, Cuba tied us a pretzel

Bulgaria recorded their eighth loss in the Nations League tournament. Kiko Blengini's boys fell to Cuba with a score of 0:3 (18-25, 20-25, 18-25).In none of the sets were our players able to resist the volleyball players from the Island of Freedom.
Venislav Anton started as a starter and finished with the most points - 12 (1 ace). Captain Grozdanov added 8 (1 ace, 2 blocks). Bulgaria is anchored in 14th place in the tournament standings with three wins. With this loss, our team dropped one place in the world ranking and is in 19th position.
The only positive news after this match is that Simeon Nikolov leads the tournament's setters' ranking, Martin Bozhilov is second among liberos, and captain Alex Grozdanov is also second among middle blockers.
Tomorrow (June 22) at 2:00 PM Bulgarian time is the "Lions'" last match in the competition, against Argentina.
