- This is the Saddest Moment in Japan Volleyball History... The French completed their VNL 2024 campaign in a strong way, taking down the second-best team in the FIVB World Rankings, Japan, 3-1 (25-23, 18-25, 25-23, 25-23) in a packed Atlas Arena. Hosts Poland finished third and completed the podium.
France had ups and downs during the Preliminary Phase, advancing to the VNL Finals in sixth place with eight wins and four losses, but found their rhythm in Łódź, beating the top three teams in the World Ranking to earn the right to lift the trophy.
Despite the setback in the final match of the tournament, Japan also have reason to celebrate as, besides improving from their historic bronze-medal-winning campaign from 2023, the Asians also returned to the gold medal match of a major international tournament for the first time since they took silver at the 1977 FIVB World Cup. After the conclusion of the VNL, Japan appear in second place in the World Rankings with 361.02 points.
Opposite Jean Patry was a difference-maker for France in the gold medal match, leading all scorers with 24 points (20 kills, three blocks, one ace). Kevin Tillie played a big role off the bench, tallying 13 points, while fellow outside hitter Yacine Louati added another 11.
“Japan are always tough opponents,” Patry celebrated. “They are very skilled, extremely patient and they dig everything. We try to be patient when we play them, but it’s always a challenge to remain focused the entire time. Winning the VNL is excellent in our preparation for the Paris Games, which is our main goal for the season. Our goal was to make it to the semifinals, so there’s nothing better than winning gold. We have a lot of guys who can come in and help the team and that’s one of our main strengths.”
On the Japanese side, captain Yuki Ishikawa had another excellent performance, leading the team with 17 points (all in kills), followed by opposite Yuji Nishida, who registered 11. Fellow opposite Kento Miyaura also got to double digits, coming off the bench to score ten points.
“We’re very happy that we made it to the final, but today it was a tough match,” Ishikawa reflected. “Congrats to France for winning the title. Playing in the final was a great experience for us and it will help as we prepare for the Olympics.”
The Japan men's national volleyball team (Japanese: 男子バレーボール日本代表) represents Japan in international volleyball competitions and friendly matches, governed by Japan Volleyball Association.
Their nickname is "RYUJIN NIPPON (龍神 NIPPON)", meaning "Japanese Dragon God" or "Dragon God of Japan" in Japanese.

saddest momentは、これよりもパリ五輪のイタリア戦だと思います😢
Agree 😭😭😭
Its true, so sad in watching live in Olympic, they lose it in game 3,4,5 and the match point😢
saddest was their loss in the Olympics
Agree
Ran & yuki cried
@@ginalego1524 Coach Blain cried too
it was so sad but the best game in the whole tournament imo. Japan is so fun to watch.
悲傷過後 收拾心情 再戰下屆洛杉磯 相信日本隊一定得🇯🇵🇯🇵🥇🥇
The last time France lost a final was years ago in Paris VNL to Russia. These guys are just different when playing in finals
Japan didnt *lose gold* they *won silver* thats a big difference.
huh what kind of delusion is that
@@gandhi5596 how is that delusional?
W2hat a delusional comment lol
@@dinocatgaming2127that really is delusional they lost gold in this game cuz they were already silver medalists.
@@jessi9020 They used this phrase on German TV during the Olympics and I thought it was cute (also cringe but cute).
Think positive people. Silver is great. Being in the top 10 of the world is already an achievement, but Japan got second!
I know what happened during the Olympics was unfortunate, but international volleyball is played at an incredibly high level and I'm not mad. They'll do better next time.
Both of them are fantasy teams. The French team makes a surprising impression, and Japan is fast and has standard moves.
The saddest moment was the final sets of the Paris 2024 Olympics match against Italy... 😢
Can we normalize not booing the opponents when you're in the host country? That's more sad.
Not ever booing, that is a behaviour that should not be tolerated for the sport in general. Sportmanship over competition, always. And if it doesn't comes from the referee first, we can't hope it will come from anyone else.
@@arkenfalgurd5860 I agree. I mean, even the smallest acts of kindness goes a long way. It's just sad to have that kind of mentality.
日本人だけどそう思います。
こんなことする必要なんてない。
While I agree that booing shall not be tolerated (at any time), the VNL 2024 finals was hosted by Poland so neither France nor Japan was the home team here~
