What a life?! Yesterday criticised, and even disparaged by many, today praised and true sports heroes. The Serbian volleyball players defeated the mighty Brazil with 3:0 (25:22, 25:20, 25:22), in the last match of Group H, with which they qualified for the round of 16 of the 21st World Championship, which is being played in the Philippines.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The match played in the hall in Pasay City, in “Brazilian time”, from 10 am local time, will be retold for a long time. It was one of the best games of the Serbian national team in the last few years, and it was at the very moment, when it was the most difficult and most important, after a heavy defeat against the Czech Republic and an encouraging triumph in the match with the Chinese.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Excellent in all segments of the game, George Krecu’s players were a match for the great Brazil, whose players and coaches said after the match that the problem was not their bad game, but that Serbia played great. This is the reason for great optimism before the continuation of the Championship and the round of 16 match, which is scheduled for Tuesday, September 23rd.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From the start of the match, the enormous energy and desire of the Serbian volleyball players to outplay the favoured rival was noticeable, which brought a real seesaw of results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Brazil took the lead 8:6, but after 11:10, Serbia tied three points on Kujund\u017ei\u0107’s serves and then a real battle began on the court. Brazil reached a tie at 17:17, a little later 21:21, but in the end, Luburi\u0107 and Peri\u0107 with great attacks brought an important set and a 1:0 lead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
