France’s victory in the men’s volleyball tournament of the Paris 2024 Olympics wasn’t the only repeat from the Tokyo Games, three years ago, as just like was the case in the Japanese capital, star outside hitter Earvin Ngapeth was named as the Most Valuable Player of the event.
Playing in his third Olympics, the 33-year-old Ngapeth was instrumental for the gold medalists, helping them get to the title with 92 points scored across the team’s six matches in the tournament – 75 kills, ten blocks and five aces.
