Bulgaria’s national volleyball squad ended the Olympic qualification tournament in Xi'an, China with a victory, in a match versus Belgium after a 5-game battle (25:21, 23:25, 21:25, 25:22, 15:13), their fourth victory in China.

However, it is not enough to take them to the Olympic Games in Paris next year. The volleyballers still stand a very slim chance if they have a series of wins in the next edition of the Nations League and move up in the rankings.
