Bio
Born in a city of volleyball, Antoine Brizard has been immersed in this sport since he was 7 years old. Smuggler from the start, he is called up by the club of Toulouse in 2015, which earned him his first French selection in 2016. He was vice-champion of Russia with Saint Petersbourg as well as for the Russian Cup and the CEV Cup last season. He will play in Piacenza next year.
In the second match of the day in Pool D, Latvia will try to challenge the leaders of the pool, team France. The Olympic champions have demonstrated their class in the pool stage, having so far lost just a single set against Germany and are definitely looking forward to another clean victory today. After a good start, Latvia have endured quite a few setbacks and have now minimized their chances of proceeding ahead to the next stage of the tournament.
However, with the pressure off, the team managed to put up a solid performance and steal a set against another pool favourite Germany, and is definitely hoping to have some surprises up their sleeve against France today as well.
