(ANSA) – BETIM, 12 DEC – The defense of the world title in Brazil fades to the best. For the third time out of four participations in the Club World Cup, the path of the Lube Civitanova stops a few meters from the finish line, in the final.
Fatal on the field of ‘Ginasio Divino Braga’ in Betim the slip in three sets (17-25, 22-25, 23-25) against the hosts of Sada Cruzeiro, who win their fourth World Cup and redeem the three defeats of the spent with the Marche: that of 2019 in the final and the two suffered in the groups, again in the 2019 edition and in 2017.
To weigh on today’s challenge are too many red and white errors from nine meters. At the end of the match Gabi Garcia and Yant, 12 points each, share the throne of top scorer with the Cuban Lopez, but the greater precision in attack of the Sada (53% against 49% white and red) and the almost impeccable management of the wall-defense (6 the winning blocks against only 1 of Civitanova) make the difference.
“Unfortunately it went badly, they played a great game, while we made many, too many mistakes, especially in serving – comments Robertlandy Simon for Lube at the end of the game -. We forced it because with the ball in hand it was very difficult to stop. Cruzeiro, who played a good match and also had a bit of luck on his side. In the third set we came very close to a comeback, it’s a pity we didn’t succeed. ” (HANDLE).
