Volleyball Nations League: Iran Beats China in Straight Sets

Iran overpowered China in three straight sets in the series of Volleyball Nations League on Friday at Ufa Arena in Ufa, Russia.
It was the 10th playing the 13th in the Volleyball Nations League as China faced Iran, but it was Iran which was in control throughout. Led by its setter and a solid blocking performance, Iran rode out 3-0 winners (25-19, 25-20, and 25-15) with relative ease, FIVB.com wrote.
It was a replay of the 2011 Asian Championship final, when Iran won its first Asian title, and it was again its setter who ran the show. Saeid Marouf is the captain and orchestrator for his team who after the match commented that “there are no easy matches in this competition. Today our service was good and they had a lot of problems with their side-out.”
