The Bulgarian men’s national volleyball team put on a fantastic display to defeat Poland on Friday, getting one step closer to the 2013 FIVB World League Finals.

The Bulgarians wasted no time defeating last year’s World League gold medalists, winning a quick three sets 3-0 (25-21, 25-21, 25-21).

“We made a step forward to the Finals,” said Bulgaria’s coach Camilo Placi, according to fibv.org.

“It was a small step, but the most important is the last step. We played a good match. I am sorry for Poland and Andrea Anastasi. I was here when he won last year in Sofia. It was then when he surprised me with a present and gave me the clipboard he used in the final match. I still keep it and it's a good memory, but this is life - in sport you either win or lose. I hope we will play swell tomorrow and win and write a new shiny page in Bulgarian volleyball history.”

On Saturday, Bulgaria’s will fight for another win to qualify indisputably for the World League Finals. Poland, on the other hand, is already out of the finals, and will focus their attention on Eurovolley 2013 after their last match.
