  • I went to Brazil's games yesterday and today. It's the first time in 9 years that any NT comes play in my town. Couldn't miss the oportunity.


    I think we're doing good in this tournament, considering we're playing without our two main MB's. And I believe both Adenízia and Carol Gattaz are doing a really good job.


    Against Argentina, Mari was definitely our best player, she served really well and became our main hitter in the end of the third set, specially since Dani and Sheila's plays weren't very well synchronized. Last set was a bit of a thriller, Argentina's defense was very good.


    In the semis, against Colombia, the biggest surprise of this championship, Dani and Sheila got much better, they played really well. When Paula came into court, she did a good job too.


    Since the games are being broadcasted, I reckon there's no much news to share with you guys. Just that the atmosphere in the hall is really great and the audience seems to really like Sassá and Paula.


    Tomorrow I'm going to the finals, I hope it'll be a nice match!

  • I hope you could enjoy tomorrow's match, yates. Even if our opponents are not volleyball superpowers, the idea of being with the Brazilian girls at the exact same gymnasium as them is just awesome. I believe there will be no surprises, though. Brazil is supposed to beat Argentina in straight sets very easily and I believe that if Argentina were able to win a single set against Brazil that would be too much of a shock already.


    It is nice to see both Adenízia and Carol Gattaz playing well, but honestly, I think they were not really tested during this Championship. I have the impression that the Final Four matches against USA were much more difficult than the whole South American Championship so far.

  • CHILE finished seventh

Therefore, in the decisive moments, the team still felt the lack of international experience. Anyway, the group played well and we still have the Brazilian fans in this fight for bronze, "said the coach.

  • Brazil has beaten Argentina in straight sets (25-16, 25-16, 25-22) an will join Thailand, Dominican Republic and either Italy or the Netherlands in the World Grand Champions Cup. Japan will also take part of this tournament as the host country and the wild card team is still unknown. I have no clue about which team will be invited for this tournament. In 2005, Korea was given the opportunity of playing such tournament, but I am pretty sure there are stronger teams than Korea willing to play this tournament. If I were to choose a team, I would choose the strongest team I could and in order to make the right choice I would ask the possible candidates if their idea is competing with their best players. Then I would possibly choose Russia, USA, China or Cuba.


    I heard that the FIVB criterium is choosing a team from the same continent as the Olympic Champions, then Puerto Rico, Cuba, USA, Argentina and Peru would have chances. On the other hand, China is the former Olympic Champions and they are from the same continent as the host country, they might have been given a chance (remembering that the new FIVB president is Chinese) and finally the European teams are reallya strong (the ECH is the most difficult continental championship and for this reason the European teams should have been given a chance). I have no idea what FIVB will consider to make this choice but I am really looking forward to this definition.
