Rimini (DPA) – German volleyball player missed out on a sense of hope of achievement in the Nations League.

A day after a clear 0:3 against Olympic hosts Japan, national coach Andrea Gianni’s team surprisingly lost 3–0 to Canada (17:25, 24:26, 21:25).

For the Germans it was the seventh defeat in the Duel of the Eleventh League of Nations. At the final weekend of the tournament, a duel for former national coach Vital Heinen with world champion Poland awaits Gianni’s team.
