My Favorite Olympic Volleyball Match


If someone were to ask me what's my favorite Olympic indoor volleyball match of all time, I would have to say the quarterfinal match between Brazil and Russia at the 2012 London Games.

Both of these squads showed what it takes to be a champion team. For me, this is the real Gold Medal match. A match for the ages, indeed!

This game kinda reminds me of the Russia-Brazil semifinal match at the 2004 Athens Olympics, where the two powerhouse teams battled it out until the 5th set. Intense!  Walang gustong bumitaw.



When Brazil and Russia meet, I always expect them to turn up everything: the intensity, the emotions, the drama, the trash-talking! I just hope that Russia and Brazil would be the top teams facing each other in the 2016 Rio Games Gold Medal match!
