Iran’s loss to Germany in straight sets (15-25, 21-25, 19-25) at the FIVB Men’s World Championships in Poland on Wednesday made it difficult for the Iranian national volleyball team to make it to the semifinals of the event.
Germany had earlier lost in straight sets to France. In order to have a chance to advance, Iran will have to secure a 3-0 triumph over France when they line up against each other in the final clash of round three later on Thursday.
