The Bulgarian National Volleyball won its third victory at the Olympic qualification tournament held in Xi'an, China. The team coached by Plamen Konstantinov defeated Mexico 3:0 (25:23, 25:19, 25:22). However, this was not enough for the team to qualify for the Summer Olympic Games in Paris.

The Bulgarian team took revenge against this opponent who defeated Bulgaria at the 2022 Volleyball Men’s World Championship in Poland. On the last day of the competition Bulgaria will play against Belgium.
