The Pan American Cup Men’s Final Six is nearing its end, with just a few matches remaining to seal the victory for the US Men’s Volleyball team.

However, a new day has brought a fresh opponent for the US team as they face off against Canada. Will they be able to defend their crown, or will the pretender succeed?

Both the USA and Canada were entering the fourth day of the tournament with zero losses. This raised concerns among American volleyball fans who feared a break in the United States’ winning streak. However, Cody Kessel, the USA Volleyball Men’s National Team’s 31-year-old outside hitter, shared a video from their practice session and upended any and all doubts in the minds of the fans.

True to the video, Matt Knigge brought a world-class performance to the court and shocked the opponents beyond expectations. The US team started slow, but as the match progressed, the players unveiled their secret arsenal prepared in the training.

The US Men’s Volleyball team secured a total of 45 kills against Canada’s 37. Out of the 45 kills, Matt Knigge accounted for four kills, one ace, and three blocks.

These last-minute training sessions have been crucial for the success of the team, as highlighted by the previous day’s match against Puerto Rico.
