On July 6, 2023, Canada will be up against Italy at the SM Mall of Asia Arena in Pasay City, the Philippines.
The FIVB Volleyball Men’s Nations League 2023, which began on June 6 and runs through July 23, 2023, has now entered its third exciting week after successfully concluding its second week. With an eye on securing a position in the final eight, teams have been battling it out at the VNL 2023. Japan’s team has proven to be an unstoppable force by winning all of their first nine matches and ensuring their spot in the knockout stage of the Men’s VNL.
Additionally, regardless of the outcome of the matches ahead, Poland has sealed its place in the 2023 Men’s VNL quarterfinals due to the nation hosting the final phase. However, Poland holds a respectable sixth-place overall team in the tournament and looks solid to end within the top eight in standings after the preliminary matches of the men’s VNL 2023 get done.
On July 6, 2023, Canada will be up against Italy at the SM Mall of Asia Arena in Pasay City, the Philippines, at the ongoing FIVB Volleyball Men’s Nations League 2023. While Canada lost their last VNL 2023 match against the Netherlands, Italy defeated Brazil in their previous game to secure their sixth win in the tournament. As the two teams face each other on Thursday, Italy will definitely have an advantage over Canada depending on their present form.
