France and Argentina will fight in the sixth and final weekend of Intercontinental Round play at the San Juan Aldo Cantoni Stadium in a duel that will determine which of the two teams will advance to the Final Round in Belgrade later this month. 

The two most important matches of the Pool are scheduled for Thursday and Friday at 9:00 p.m. local time, and will be broadcast live on ESPN+ and Channel 7.

France leads Argentina by one point, meaning whoever obtains the most points in San Juan will book a spot in the Final Six, as Pool B leaders Serbia have already qualified as hosts. Should France and Argentina finish level on points, the team that has a better points ratio will qualify.

While Argentina is coming off a split against Serbia in Round 5, France had an ideal fifth weekend, winning 6 points in Korea to move back into second place.

The only injury concern is Argentina's Luciano De Cecco, who has picked up a minor leg injury. Demián González has joined the squad to replace De Cecco if necessary. De Cecco will train hard on Wednesday before the coaching staff and doctors decide whether he can play or not.

Expectations are so high that there is a constant queue at the stadium to buy tickets, and many fans poured into the stadium to watch Argentina practice on Tuesday afternoon. Many were there to see the three players born in San Juan and another who plays for local club UPCN San Juan in the A1 Men's League.

The newspapers, television and radio are abuzz about the important event that will take place in San Juan, and everything is ready for a new Volleyball party.
