Doha: Qatar finished their 2025 FIVB Men's Volleyball World Championship campaign on a high note, earning their first-ever win in the tournament by beating Romania 3-1 (20-25, 25-23, 25-20, 25-22) on Wednesday in Quezon City, Philippines.
Although both teams were already out of contention for the Round of 16, they were determined to make the most of their final match. For Qatar, it was a historic milestone.
"This victory means a lot to our country," said 40-year-old middle blocker Ibrahim Ibrahim, who scored 12 points.
"In 2022, we had a great first participation, but couldn't win. We fought a lot here in the Philippines, and I really wanted the team to be able to celebrate a victory this time. We were here to learn, and now we return home and keep pushing forward."
