DOHA: Defending champions Qatar produced a commanding performance to defeat Australia 3-0 in their final Pool B match of the 2025 AVC Men’s Volleyball Nations Cup at Isa Bin Rashid Hall in Manama, Bahrain, yesterday.
Led by head coach Camilo Soto, Qatar dominated proceedings from start to finish, sealing the straight-sets victory with scores of 25-22, 25-21, and 25-22.
Wadidi Raimi led Qatar’s charge with an impressive 14 points, emerging as the top scorer of the match. Mohamed Ibrahim also delivered a strong performance, contributing 10 crucial points to the victory.
This was Qatar’s first appearance in the tournament, after their opening match was cancelled due to Kazakhstan’s withdrawal from the rebranded event previously known as the Asian Challenge Cup.
The cancellation meant both Qatar and Australia advanced to the quarter-finals without playing a match prior to their clash.
