2017-2018 BRAZILIAN WOMEN’S SUPERLIGA

Sesc/RJ came back from behind 2-0 to beat Hinode/Barueri (3-2, 24/26, 23/25, 25/22, 25/23, and 15/12) behind Drussyla Costa‘s 27 points, while Edinara Brancher had 21 points in the losing effort.  This was the first time coaches Bernadinho and José Roberto Guimarães, owners of five Olympic gold medals (10 total if silvers and bronze medals are considered) went head to head in a Superliga match in the last three years. Edinara lost the whole fourth set due to injury, while Rio lost Gabriella Souza in the tie break to a gruesome injury.

Team of the week

Sesc/RJ is coached by what many consider to be the best coach in the world. In its game against Barueri, it showed. Rio‘s players mustered up strength to bravely come back from a huge 2-0 deficit, playing with a level of confidence and energy that made it look like they were the ones up 2-0, and not Barueri. At the start of the tie break, they had to show great mental toughness to overcome Gabriella Souza‘s injury and close out the game.
