The presentation of the match – Paola Egonu best scorer? – Where the Brazilians play
Good evening and welcome to LIVE LIVE from Italy-Brazil, World Cup semifinal 2022 women’s volleyball. To Apeldoorn (Netherlands) an unmissable match from inside or outside is staged, the qualification for the final act to be played against Serbia is up for grabs. Our national team is called to face the Olympic vice championsit promises to be a truly titanic and on paper decidedly balanced clash: the European Champions will have to pull out their claws if they want to get the better of the green-gold battleship and continue to dream big.
There is an unfinished business to settle: last week the girls of Ze Roberto beat the sextet of the coach Davide Mazzanti to the advantages of the tie-break in a match valid for the second group stage. On that occasion Italy made too many mistakes, this time it will take more cynicism and precision to battle against the South Americans and try to win, as happened three months ago in the Nations League final. The blues know very well what they have to do: improve in the ball change phase, hit hard on the serve, increase accuracy in attack.
The unleashed spiker Gabi must be strictly markedreal driver of Brazil. Attention also to the walls of the Carol central fort and to the offensive quality of Pri Dairot, Tainara or the alternative Rosamaria Montibeller. Italy will need broadsides of Paola Egonuof the grit of Miriam Sillaof the strenuous work of Caterina Bosettiof the walls of Anna Danesii, of the recoveries of Monica De Gennaroof the best directed by Alessia Orro.
OA Sport offers you the LIVE LIVE from Italy-Brazil, World Cup semifinal 2022 of women’s volleyball: news in real time, minute by minute, point by point, exchange after exchange, so as not to really miss anything. It starts at 20.00. Have a good fun.
