I could write several pages about Brazil and about the match... I think we Brazilians are of course sad especially because we were always way behind in the score and managed to get close to Italy at the end of each set but eventually made some stupid mistakes. I think that mistake by Kisy in the 1st set pretty much killed most of our vibes. Oh the other hand, we're happy with some of the new girls. Ana Cristina impressed me a lot today. I think Zé was a bit lazy too, he should've sub Macris and Julia Bergmann earlier.
Congrats, Italy! Having Egonu makes things much easier even if she doesn't play at her normal level. Cate and Pietrini are also on fire. I've always liked Italy since more than 20 years ago, with Rinieri, Togut, Anzanello, Cardullo...I wish they finally medal in the next Olympics.
PS: did the US win the 7th place match? Lol, just kidding
