Plamen Konstantinov’s side was controlling the game all the time except in the third set when the Olympic champions took the opportunity to decrease the lead.

However, in the fourth set we saw an amazing display from Bulgaria who simply smashed Brazil for a big celebration in Varna 3-1 (25-22, 25-19, 23-25, 25-19).
