V-League title holders have 3 of 3 in the Top 6 and they achieved all 3 victories in the tie-break! The newest five-set win came against Toray Arrows, partially 25-27, 25-20, 25-21, 18-25, 15-9, thanks to 23 points from Miyu Nagaoka.

Toyota Qeenseis achieved another straight-set triumph, this time versus NEC Red Rockets. In these three sets, Queenseis’ bomber from Azerbaijan Polina Rahimova scored 35 points!

In Men’s competition, Gosei Trefuerza and Toray Arrows keep perfect 2-0 score.

Led by the Croatian opposite Igor Omrčen, who scored 27 points, reigning champions downed Osaka Blazers 3-0 (34-32, 27-25, 25-23), while Toray beat Panasonic Panthers 3-0 as well with 22 from Macedonian Nikola Gjorgiev. It was the second defeat to the Panthers so, the side where Polish star Michał Kubiak plays, is seriously endangering playoff spot.
