the second group

Despite the narrow result, the second set was important for the Brazilian team’s confidence boost. The team started to force serve and achieved good results. Another highlight was the interaction of Bruninho, the Brazilian batsman and captain, with pointers and linebackers. Accurate passing and well-designed plays were essential to injuring the Slovenians and securing points for Brazil. Despite trying to keep up with the opponents, the European team was unable to stop the attacks. However, there were some receiving and offensive errors that stunted their growth in the game. Therefore, the second set ended with 25 to 20 for the green and yellow team.

The third group

It was Brazil who opened the third group of this game for the League of Nations (VNL), but soon Slovenia returned to show again the balance of the game. Up to 15 points, the teams constantly take turns at the top of the scoreboard. Brazil then opened two points under the opposition, 20 to 18, but was quickly reached. With a tie at 24 points, Alan sent the counter at a speed of 124 km / h and hit the ace at the right time. Subsequently, he was also responsible for grounding the ball in the next attack and winning the set for Brazil.

Fourth group

Group D was tense for Brazil. While Slovenia was looking to survive the game, Brazil wanted to finish the game and achieve victory. In another contested group, Brazil was only able to stand out after 18 points, when it managed a two-point advantage. After that moment, the team maintained its good performance and reached 24 points from the match point, with a difference of 4 points. Finally, the one who ended the match in favor of Brazil was central Ottavio, with a side kick.
