Roberto Piazza’s students entered the second week of this competition in a situation where the first week was hosted by Ottawa (Canada), Brasilia (Brazil) and Linyi (China) and Iran’s matches were followed in Brasilia and the result was one victory, three defeats and four points. The conditions in the first week after the growing trend of the team were such that there was hope that the Iranian team would show a better performance in the second week, but the young composition of Roberto Piazza and the lack of experience of some players did not allow this, and the Iranian national volleyball team lost in their first and second games from the second week, against France and America. The 3-2 defeat against France was the beginning of the work, and on Thursday, the United States passed Iran’s barrier 3-0, so that the Iranian team faced Japan with low self-confidence.

Roberto Piazza’s students started poorly in this game. The defeat in the first and second set with the same score of 25-19 showed Iran’s weakness against the Japanese. However, Piazza’s students performed better in the third set and served better, which led to a 25-20 victory. The fourth set was followed by the noticeable superiority of Iranian volleyball players, and while Japan was trying to win the third set, it ended with a score of 25-23 in Iran’s favor, so that the work was extended to the fifth set.
In the fifth set, the two teams went toe-to-toe and the difference was one point for the Japanese team. Piazza’s students had a chance to overtake this team after winning the eighth point, but in the end, this did not happen until Japan reduced the difference to 2 and Piazza was forced to take a technical break. After this action, the Iranian team was able to make up for the difference, but the Japanese asked for a review with a score equal to 11, which was agreed upon, and they again kept their score difference at 2. The game continued in the crucial and decisive fifth set and ended with the result of 15:12 in favor of Japan.
Roberto Piazza’s men suffered a sixth defeat in their seventh game, but managed to grab a point from Japan to take their total to seven points.
