Australia - Egypt (full match)

Thomas Edgar put on the performance of a lifetime scoring 50 points, including 47 spikes, for Australia! His team won against Egypt in five sets to pick up their first win of the World Cup Japan 2015. Edgar’s performance was even more astonishing considering he had to be substituted midway through the third set due to a cut to his hand. Egypt were led by Ahmed Abdelhay on 30 points. Australia coach Roberto Santilli said: "We didn't start that well today. We found the key to the game was to get the ball to Edgar. The strategy was elementary. When he is playing like that he is hard to stop. We are really, really happy with this victory after losing three matches. The atmosphere in the team was beginning to get dark, so today was very important."
