GP 2017: Brazil defeat Dutch girls to stay in race for semis

by WoV

However, it's all up to China now. Ze Roberto's side beat the Netherlands in tie-break 3-2 to keep the chances for reaching the semifinals.

Brazil vs. Netherlands

Brazil vs. Netherlands

It was a stunning game between the reigning champions and the Netherlands. The Dutch girls have managed to win the first set after making a comeback, but in the second set Brazil leveled the score to 1:1.

In the third set we saw again much better performance from the Netherlands, while Ze Roberto’s side has decided to extend the game into five sets.

Brazil didn’t want to finish the Final Six tournament without scoring a victory, so they played with a full throttle and beat the rival 15-11.

If China beat the Dutch Girls, Brazil will play in the semifinals but if the Netherlands defeat the Chinese girls, Brazil will go home…
