The day Cuba can keep their guys playing in their own country at the national team level is the day they go from competing to get into the VNL to competing to potentially win the VNL, so many all-world players from Cuba on other countries National teams

WHAT A MF'ING FIGHT BACK FROM KOREA!
They win 3-2 after surviving 7 match points!
22-20 in the 5th set!
If you missed this one, go back and watch the replay.

Korea was up 2-0 then decided to switch around their line-up and play their highest scoring OPP Subong at OH for the 3rd set. His passing breaks down, he gets pulled for their top OH Kyungmin but then he goes down with an injury playing back row!
Korea's back up OPP Donghyeok, who hadn't played a single set all tournament, started set 2 and ends the match with 33 points (28 kills).
Just a wild, wild match.

Mergarejo and Milad has impressed me. I hope they will be the starters in Milano.

If Bulgaria and Canada won't step up, they are the ones that are going to be relegated next year.

Technically 4 sets, since he started set 2 but YES! As the back-up. To be fair, the starting OPP is really, really good too. He was top scorer of the tournament despite only playing 1 set in the Bronze match.

Cuba looks incredible! With Simon back with them they could make some serious noise and I definitely think next years VNL will be much more competitive with them in the tournament.
Congrats Cuba and GO NORCECA!!!

Congrats Cuba and GO NORCECA!!! Cuba, I don’t know what to expect from them lol. Maybe them playing so poorly against the NCAA kids recently was bc they were rusty and playing down to the level… But they certainly looked in better form here. And ofc they have the athletes to bomb away. WCH and then next year’s VNL will be big tests for them.

Bringing this thread back since it follows the VNL. I'm super excited to watch South Korea play again after last year's thrilling Bronze match! Anyone know if this is the correct list of teams qualified? Other than the relegated team from this year's VNL, of course. volleybox.net/men-challenger-cup-2023-o25104/classification
