India lost the opportunity to end their FIVB Men's U-21 Volleyball World Championship dream run on a high when they lost to Argentina in straight sets and failed to secure the Bronze medal.

Argentina's aggression and sheer determination to win saw them through a three set win over India.

With the win, second seeded Argentina won the Bronze medal while India wrapped up their campaign with a respectful fourth place.
