The group stage is over. Now, it's time for the 2021 Olympic champions to truly begin their title defense.

Team USA's quarterfinal match against Poland will be far from easy for the Americans. They struggled in the group phase, losing to China before beating Serbia. They managed to take down France in just three sets, but overall, it was still a very tight battle (29-27, 29-27, 25-20).

Poland had a slightly better showing, defeating Japan in four sets and Kenya in three sets before getting swept by Brazil. That loss may only make the third-ranked team in the world hungry for more, though.

Poland and Team USA have met before, playing for third place in the 2023 Volleyball Nations League tournament. Poland defeated the Americans in five sets, but these squads haven't faced off in a major tournament since that event.
