The match in Chicago saw the Poles fielding an experimental line-up composed mostly of young players.

Earlier in the tournament, the Polish squad shone against an all-star Brazil, pulling off a 3-2 win on Wednesday.

The Poles in September last year beat Brazil in the final of the 2018 FIVB Volleyball Men's World Championships in Turin, Italy, defending their title and claiming their third world championship gold after wins in 2014 in Poland and in 1974 in Mexico.
