League of Nations. Where is Poland ranked?
Following Thursday’s victory over China, Nikola Grbic’s men briefly took the lead. They were “dethroned” the very next day, when the French returned to first place after beating the Brazilians. Another reshuffle took place after the clashes between the Italians and the Serbs. The Italian team won three smooth sets and overtook both the Poles and the French.
The Habs opened a series of matches on Saturday in the Nations League. The French lost 1:3 to Argentina, so they lost the chance to overtake the Italians and take the lead over the Poles. So, if the Biało-Czerwoni win Saturday’s game against the Netherlands in four or three sets and find a favorable balance of the so-called small points, they will overtake the Italians.
The world champions should be careful though, as they are only one point ahead of Japan and three eyes ahead of the United States. The Land of the Rising Sun national team will also play their match on Saturday, July 9 at 12:10 p.m. Polish time, they will face Germany. Earlier at The Americans started their game against Canada at 8:40.
