Hiroshima Thunders took over Nippon Steel Sakai Blazers\u2019 spot above the cut-off line, but suffered a setback in one of their matches that could eventually prove fatal in the race for the quarterfinals.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><b> Watch Japan&#8217;s SV.League on <\/b><a href=\"https:\/\/vb.tv\/\"><b>VBTV<\/b><\/a><b>.<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Hiroshima Thunders visited bottom-placed Voreas Hokkaido for a double header this weekend. On Saturday, they lived up to their higher ranking and mastered a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.svleague.jp\/en\/form\/b\/32295\">3-0 (25-20, 25-18, 25-22)<\/a> shutout, inspired by their 38-year-old Cuban outside hitter Oreol Camejo, who spearheaded the team with a match-high 18 points. On Sunday, however, Voreas struck back with a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.svleague.jp\/en\/form\/b\/32296\">3-1 (20-25, 25-22, 25-23, 27-25)<\/a> upset. Their opposite Chang Yu-Sheng from Chinese Taipei was the most prolific scorer of the match with 20 points, including three aces and two kill blocks. Saturday\u2019s success helped Hiroshima surpass Sakai in sixth place on a 15-25 win-loss ratio and 47 points, but with their main rival\u2019s two games in hand, Saturday\u2019s loss may bear a heavy cost on Hiroshima\u2019s bid for a quarterfinal spot. In fact, Sakai\u2019s last two games of the regular season are also against Voreas, who still trail bottom in 10th place on 6-32 and 24.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/Thunders_JT\/status\/1903762989620318522\">https:\/\/x.com\/Thunders_JT\/status\/1903762989620318522<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Nippon Steel Sakai Blazers lost both of their matches at home this weekend, but against a much more sizeable opponent, Wolfdogs Nagoya. In the first one, Dutch opposite Nimir Abdel-Aziz powered Nagoya to a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.svleague.jp\/en\/form\/b\/32303\">3-1 (16-25, 25-21, 25-20, 25-19)<\/a> victory with 31 points, including two aces. In the second, he fired another 32 points, including three aces and three kill blocks, towards another <a href=\"https:\/\/www.svleague.jp\/en\/form\/b\/32304\">3-1 (25-27, 28-26, 25-18, 25-14)<\/a> win. Sakai dropped to seventh place on 14-24 and 45, while Nagoya made a solid step towards a top-two finish and a direct ticket to the semifinals, improving to 33-7 and 97 in second place.<\/p>\n<p>Table leaders Osaka Bluteon also made a big step towards the semifinals with two away wins over JTEKT Stings Aichi. On Saturday, they mastered a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.svleague.jp\/en\/form\/b\/32299\">3-0 (25-15, 25-19, 25-20)<\/a> sweep with a match-high 16 points, including four kill blocks, from outside Shoma Tomita. Sunday\u2019s match was pushed to five before the visitors could celebrate another win, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.svleague.jp\/en\/form\/b\/32300\">3-2 (25-22, 23-25, 25-19, 24-26, 15-13)<\/a>, with Cuban outside Miguel Lopez leading the way with 26 points. Aichi\u2019s opposite Kento Miyaura was the best scorer of the match with 28 points, including three aces and two blocks. Osaka top the standings on 33-5 and 95, while Aichi are in fourth place on 22-18 and 60.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/reel\/DHgWoBGhi-2\/?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet\">https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/reel\/DHgWoBGhi-2\/?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Defending champions Suntory Sunbirds Osaka are the only team that could pose a threat on Osaka and Nagoya for the top two spots in the final regular season standings. They are running third on 30-8 and 90, after two home wins over Nagano Tridents this weekend. In Saturday\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.svleague.jp\/en\/form\/b\/32301\">3-0 (25-20, 25-18, 25-22)<\/a> sweep, Cuban outside Alain De Armas was above all with 18 points, including four aces and two blocks. In Sunday\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.svleague.jp\/en\/form\/b\/32302\">3-1 (25-21, 25-17, 37-39, 25-22)<\/a> victory, Russian opposite Dmitriy Muserskiy topped the charts with 26 points. Nagano stand second from the bottom, in ninth place on 9-29 and 24.<\/p>\n<p>Fifth-placed Tokyo Great Bears and eighth-placed Toray Arrows Shizuoka traded victories in their double header. In the first game, the visitors from Shizuoka came back from a set down twice to produce a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.svleague.jp\/en\/form\/b\/32297\">3-2 (15-25, 25-22, 23-25, 25-19, 15-13)<\/a> upset. The winners\u2019 scorers were led on 21 points each by outside hitter and captain Tobias Takeshi Shigeto, whose tally featured four kill blocks and three aces, and Italian striker Francesco Recine. Tokyo\u2019s Portuguese opposite Alexandre Ferreira was the best scorer of the match with 26 points, including four aces and two blocks. The home team struck back with a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.svleague.jp\/en\/form\/b\/32298\">3-0 (25-21, 25-23, 25-18)<\/a> shutout on Sunday, spearheaded by outside Rikuto Goto with 17 points. Shigeto was the most prolific scorer of that match with 18 points to his name. Tokyo, who are already qualified for the playoffs, stand on 21-19 and 67. In eighth place on 11-27 and 33, Toray Arrows still hold a distant shot at the quarterfinals.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/SVLEAGUE_JP\/status\/1903705814990303692\">https:\/\/x.com\/SVLEAGUE_JP\/status\/1903705814990303692<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Another full set of five double headers will be played next weekend, on Saturday, March 29, and Sunday, March 30.<\/p>\n<p><b>Men\u2019s SV.League 2024-2025 21st leg:<\/b><br \/>\nMar 29, 13:05 local (04:05 UTC): Suntory Sunbirds Osaka v Voreas Hokkaido<br \/>\nMar 29, 14:05 local (05:05 UTC): Hiroshima Thunders v Nippon Steel Sakai Blazers<br \/>\nMar 29, 14:05 local (05:05 UTC): Toray Arrows Shizuoka v Nagano Tridents<br \/>\nMar 29, 14:05 local (05:05 UTC): JTEKT Stings Aichi v Tokyo Great Bears<br \/>\nMar 29, 15:35 local (06:35 UTC): Wolfdogs Nagoya v Osaka Bluteon<br \/>\nMar 30, 13:05 local (04:05 UTC): Suntory Sunbirds Osaka v Voreas Hokkaido<br \/>\nMar 30, 13:05 local (04:05 UTC): Hiroshima Thunders v Nippon Steel Sakai Blazers<br \/>\nMar 30, 14:05 local (05:05 UTC): Toray Arrows Shizuoka v Nagano Tridents<br \/>\nMar 30, 14:05 local (05:05 UTC): JTEKT Stings Aichi v Tokyo Great Bears<br \/>\nMar 30, 14:35 local (05:35 UTC): Wolfdogs Nagoya v Osaka Bluteon<\/p>\n<p>QUICK LINKS<\/p>\n<p>AVC Website: click <a href=\"http:\/\/www.asianvolleyball.net\/\">www.asianvolleyball.net<\/a><\/p>\n<p>AVC Facebook: click <a href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/AsianVolleyballConfederation\">www.Facebook.com\/AsianVolleyballConfederation<\/a><\/p>\n<p>AVC Twitter: click: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.twitter.com\/AsianVolleyball\">www.twitter.com\/AsianVolleyball<\/a><\/p>\n<p>AVC Instagram: click: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/avcvolley\/?hl=en\">https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/avcvolley\/?hl=en<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Mikasa Instagram: click: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/mikasasports_official\">https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/mikasasports_official<\/a><\/p>\n<p>AVC Youtube: click: Asian Volleyball Confederation<\/p>\n<p>AVC WeChat: Asian Volleyball Confederation<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Recap of men\u2019s SV.League 20th-leg matches Photo source: @Thunders_JT With the spotlight on the last remaining vacancy in the men\u2019s Daido Life SV.League playoffs, the 20th leg of the regular&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":9,"featured_media":137718,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"pgc_sgb_lightbox_settings":"","_vp_format_video_url":"","_vp_image_focal_point":[],"footnotes":""},"categories":[100,86],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-137717","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-slider","category-volleyball-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.3 -
