Bahrain thrashes Qatar

Bahrain capped their Preliminary Round campaign this evening with a dazzling victory while Korea followed suit with their first win to highlight an action-packed second day in the 19th Asian Men’s U20 Volleyball Championship.

The host Bahrainis were once again fuelled by a massive home crowd that packed Isa Sports City in Riffa as they easily disposed of Gulf rivals Qatar 3-0 (25-15, 25-16, 25-10) in a match that lasted just a little over an hour.

Meanwhile, after not being in action on opening night, Korea made their presence felt with a hard-earned five-set (25-23, 25-22, 20-25, 22-25, 15-12) triumph over China.
