Egypt triumphs in an epic derby to qualify for the 2024 Paris Olympics

Another incredible comeback and a crucial victory to secure a spot in the Paris 2024 Olympics.

 

Egypt, coached by Flavio Gulinelli, defeated Tunisia in a thrilling African derby with a score of 3-2 (15-25, 13-25, 25-21, 29-27, 15-9), thus earning qualification for the upcoming Paris 2024 Olympics.

 

It was a disappointment for Antonio Giacobbe's players, who had dominated the match in the first two sets and even had a match point at 26-25 in the fourth set. In fact, Egypt joins France, the gold medalist at Tokyo 2020, among the teams participating in the next Olympic tournament.
