    Edited once, last by valentine ().

  • it's anticlimactic that fofao did not end her career with the olympic win.



    brazil has lost the opportunity to train their replacement.



    sanchez still plays for cuba? is she not older than ruiz and barros?



  • This is the last game that Fofao representing the Brazil NT,after this tournament she'll leave.


    Haha,this is not elder sanchez,that Marta Sanchez Salfran is OH,but this Rachel Sanchez Perez is MB...


    You haven't watch Cuban games for a long time,have you?

  • yeah sanchez is only 20 year old :whistle:


  • You may have a point, odin. But the truth is, this Final Four Cup is being regargded by the Brazilian Federation as a comemorative tournament. Our Women's NT rarely have the opportunity of playing in Brazil and, more importantly, such tournament is the opportunity of Fofão ending her career in the NT before the Brazilian fans.


    Besides, players like Ana Tiemi, Fabiola and Dani Lins are playing the State Championships with their clubs.

  • I hadn't heard of this tournament, but... wait... Cuba lost to DR???? :white: :white: :white: :white: :white:
    Probably that's why I hadn't heard of it before :lol: :lol:


    Honestly, I don't really see the point of this tournament except to make a performance in front of their public. But I think that an olympic medal or Fofao's retirement are not a good excuses to make this tournament... they could organize events like that whenever they wanted to.
