In an unpredictable battle, USA managed to finally defeat Belgium after being twice in control, but the Red Dragons’ resilient attitude extended the game until a 3:2 (25:21, 17:25, 25:16, 21:25, 15:11). The last time both teams met was precisely at FIVB World Championship, in 1978 in Venice. That tournament in Italy was Belgium’s last appearance in the tournament, making a comeback in Poland after 36 years. Last World League's MVP Taylor Sander pulled out an astonishing performance and topped the scorers' list with 24 kills, as the only athlete with more than 20 points. For Belgium, Sam Deroo capped 12 points and reserve player Gert Van Walle, who remained as a starter from the fourth set, was the most prolific one of his side, with 13 points. Belgium captain said: "We started a bit stressed for the first ten points of the game, after luckily we could get rid of it. We took one point of USA, but I'd rather have two. Maybe tomorrow we'll be more satisfied with this result. Every point is important here, in the next days we will see how many points we can get and where they will take us".
