Yes, there were widespread rumours about her and Stevanovic. It's funny, but supposedly the rumours have it that one of reasons they split because Jovana did not want to publicly acknowledge their relationship in any way, not even in front of their teammates, and was very repressed about her sexuality, but now Lloyd seems to be the one dating a guy (he could be a beard, though).
bissexual people exist but go off I guess
decent link here:
Woooohoooooo!
I was feeling jaded when Minas dismantled their team, but now my heart is filled with hope again. Barueri!!!!! What a MONSTER of a player is Nyeme, wow! And Lorenne, oh my god Lorenne
... The only problem here is Juma! She made a lot of points, and did some good job in servers, but the amount of ball she sets to Opp should be a CRIME! I know Lorenne is having the time of her life, but one shouldn't make yours Opp's job worse giving ALL THE BALLS of a set to her, sheesh.. Ze even begged to her to use Lays or Tainara.
Honestly, I hope Kisy can start some games against weaker teams just so that Lorenne has some rest. Girl has been playing non-stop for a while now. And imagine what this team could do with a better setter...
Couldn't watch the match until it was 13-11 in the tie-break, but goddammit this made me so happy. Barueri is such a likeable team. This was an incredible feat for them. Some of these girls could REALLY shine with the NT in the future if they continue to play like this.
when is the 2nd match?
tomorrow!
Just found this live stream for Minas vs Praia. Can someone tell me where this match is played for?
it's the finals of the Mineiro Championship, a local pre-season tournament featuring a few teams from the state of Minas Gerais (from where Minas and Praia are).
is there any way for foreigners to buy a subscription at canalvoleibrasil?, i was trying to buy one but it seems imposible without a CPF number
Oof, I'm afraid you can't get a CPF, unless you have a Brazilian friend and you can register using their personal information. So I assume that's a no? That's too bad.
Really excited to see what Barueri can do in Superliga. I was afraid they might not be able to even make it to the playoffs, but playing like this they should get a spot in the top 8 easily.
Geez, Diouf received 91, 70 and then 99 (!) balls in the last three games. Insane.
ohhhh drussyla is not a sesc rk starter... badddddd
She was a starter against Fluminense yesterday.
you got to give it a credit to Juma as well. she sets well with her. i mean no one was in there and kisy literally killed it
I don't, since Kisy mostly plays with Jacke in the double inversion sub and almost never with Juma.
didn't rosamaria have some great matches in BRA league? she'd get lots of kills sometimes... i thought that's what the hype came from. she obviously struggles with passing, so she's a better OPP than passing OH...
i watched a few matches of the recent world u-23 (?) ch. this year (in MEX), and lots of players seemed more promising than bergmann (e.g. ana cristina & kisy). i didn't get why bergmann was called by ze to the senior NT! she was terrible and showed not a lot of promise... didn't get to see jheovana, who was kisy's backup. has she any promise?
Rosamaria is a much better OPP -- she proved that while playing in Pinheiros and during her first season in Minas iirc. She started to decline once she switched to OH permanently, so she might bounce back if she realizes full-time she can't play as a receiver. It sucks the reason for her switching positions was Zé telling her she had the build to do so.
Júlia might improve in the US, but so far Tainara, Kisy and Ana Cristina seem much more promising. I honestly believe Zé called Júlia just out of public pressure. As for Jheovana, she seems heavy and super slow, I'm not sure how it's gonna work out for her. I've barely watched anything from her.
So basically she has that Mari's trait minus the big ability. Speaking of which, how is Bergmann performing on NCAA? I do wish Edinara step up her game. She played really well on her last match.
Apparently she's doing really well, but her team is far from being the most competitive. It's not even among the top 25 teams in NCAA I believe.
Mari was on the downhill when they hired her. She barely played and she got injured. Poor my girl. Her career was never the same after that 2009 injury. Tbh, I don't know why Rosamaria was huge back then. She is an average player in my opinion. There are lots of players like her in the Superliga. What's the fuss around her?
She's pretty, white, blonde, likely comes from an European family and has a big presence on Instagram. Exactly the same reason as to why Júlia Bergmann of all people is hyped to hell and back.
ok, maira's last performance made all of us haters shut up... now can she keep it up and earn her spot in the NT for tokyo????? we know ze likes her for passing...
probably not, I think Amanda is still ahead of her. Maira has zero international experience (considering VNL, WCH, WC, OG, etc), while Amanda already has plenty.
And btw we have to mention... Maira was just brilliant today. I have to admit it.
Maira was outstanding. She'd definitely be the MVP if there were awards for the match. If only she'd keep playing like this, she could be fantastic.
.
If Lorenne doesn't go to Tokyo and Sheilla does I'm going to SCREAM
goddammit I love Kisy, she could be so good in the future
Poor rasamaria her other team mates are not doing great. She could have played abroad in fenerbache
lol no
Fuck Minas' management tbh. How do you go from what you had last season to this...
