Poland triumphed as the men’s Volleyball Nations League 2025 champions after an emphatic sweep of Sunday’s final against Italy in Ningbo.

With this result, Poland completed a perfect run through the Finals in China, without a set dropped in three matches played. Italy, on the other hand, took silver, their first-ever hardware in the history of the men’s VNL.

The first set of the final was the most competitive of the three, but Poland stayed in control for the most part of it until outside hitter Kamil Semeniuk hammered the 25-22 set winner. An incorrectly entered rotation line-up created a lot of problems for Italy in the second set and cost them a convincing 25-19 defeat.

Of course, the error was fixed for the start of the third set, but that did not help much to put Italy back on track. On the contrary, the set was completely one-sided as the Polish team was on fire and cruised through to an emphatic 3-0 (25-22, 25-19, 25-14) blowout, with middle blocker Szymon Jakubiszak delivering the match winner with a blistering first-tempo kill.

Poland outperformed Italy in three of the four scoring elements: 37-27 in spike kills, 18-25 in unforced errors and 10-6 in kill blocks. The reigning world champions outplayed the world’s number one team in serving by 4-3 in aces.

Poland’s Cuban-born star outside hitter Wilfredo Leon proved an excellent replacement for injured Tomasz Fornal in this match. Leon was the best scorer of the gold medal showdown with 16 points to his name, including a kill block. His cross-court teammate Kamil Semeniuk added another 14, including a block and an ace, while middle blocker and captain Jakub Kochanowski shined with a 71% success rate in attack and two kill blocks towards a total of seven points. Outside Daniele Lavia was the only Italian player to reach the double digits with 11 points. His tally featured two blocks and an ace.
