Argentina - Brazil (World League 2013, 2nd match)

voleifuturo 2013-06-16 • 5519 views • 14
 
Brazil continues an impressive winning streak in World League 2013. Three new faces appeared on the local side for the rematch: Luciano De Cecco, Rodrigo Quiroga and Pablo Crer, while Bernardinho chose Lipe over Lucarelli in Brazil. Felipe Fonteles was the best player of match! Former player of Kędzierzyn-Koźle scored 14 points (60% of efficiency in attack). Argentina still is not the same team that was really competitive opponent in previous years. A lack of Facundo Conte was clearly visible because neither Ivan Castellani nor Pablo Bengolea could not complete their attacks. However, it is worth remembering that Argentina has already have an ensured spot in finals and perhaps is preparing the best shape directly to Final Six. Brazil with 11 points after the second week is on 1st place in group A.

I prefer Wallace compared to Vissotto.. but this year Vissotto has done great great things in Russia .....usually is the setter that must adapt to the spiker and not the contrary. I know of Ricardo and Vissotto in Volei Futuro,Ricardo has done the same thing in Modena with other players, I'm not surprised ... it's a great setter but has no desire to take a step toward his teammates.This, for me, has always been his biggest flaw .

Hey Spike, I was impressed with Wallace since I saw him – high jumper, fast arm, hitting various angles, remains calm under pressure. I wonder when Bernardinho will give Renan Buiatti a chance. This young giant has been training with the NT and has improved in the last season. You certainly know the coach had been reluctant to Vissotto for several seasons. Vissotto is good, I can’t deny, but still too slow. Watching old videos I saw Xandó these days. He was a “killer”, a Brazilian opposite from the 80s, very effective. Then I was reading this old interview with Laurent Tillie, the former French player who’s their coach now. Tillie remarked back then that Xandó was impressive since his youth, but he coulda been even more effective if he were a bit faster. Totally spot on! The game is getting more speed, and a guy like Vissotto loses too many opportunities because of his laziness. Yes, I liked how he developed some defense skills (not much, but at least something), and it’s also evident he’s trying to adjust himself, but I think we have better options. Well, William Arjona could play with Vissotto, no doubt about it, but that would be such a waste, if you know what I mean. For a skilled setter like Arjona, setting high ones is so easy – it’s nothing. In fact, Vissotto’s game is very simple, too old school. So, Arjona wouldn’t have a problem doing that. Zatko or Zygadlo, to mention two guys that call themselves setters, could do that, too. Unfortunately, it probably wouldn’t happen the other way: Vissotto wouldn’t be able to take advantage of Arjona’s abilities. Dunno if you’re aware, but Vissotto was once kicked out of a club because of Ricardo Garcia. The veteran setter couldn’t stand Vissotto’s laziness and asked the team manager to fire the opposite, and he was let go. We know that any team can adapt to Vissotto, but sometimes he can’t make the other way.

Wallace has played very well with Bruno last year at the Olympics and also at the Pan American 2011. Perhaps the opposite may be true: think it is more difficult to adapt the style of Vissotto with William.

I'm sure Wallace can play with any setter, Bitka. He's a pro. ;-)

As for Lucarelli, here's a link in Polish with some information about his injury:

He'll be back for the upcoming matches.

you might be right Henrique but i'm sure that Wallace can play good despite who's setting: Bruno or William :P and do you know what's wrong with Lucarelli? i didn't know him before matches with Poland and i would like to see him more often. i'm curious how he will be playing (as we all know that first matches of WL were just warm-ups)

So many girls on this thread, that’s why it’s so interesting. As you may know, girls are smarter than guys, but please don’t tell this to my friend Hanes233 (aka Hanesvaldo) or he’ll get upset. Crying Rachel, miss you buckets! Have you cried too much lately, my dear? Justie, it was an exposed fracture, but right after the match it was informed that Isac will be back soon. Another newbie, Maurício Souza, replaced him and did well. There are lots of new MBs waiting for a chance: Gustavão (2,16m), Tiago Barth, Bernardo Reitz and Otávio Pinto, among others. Bitka, I do agree with you. I think Vissotto is too slow and he also lacks attention, but I must admit he’s adjusting well. There are two reasons to keep Wallace among the backup players. First, he’s still recovering from an injury (something simple). The other reason is that the backup setter, William Arjona, knows Wallace style really well, as they’ve been playing together, so this affinity would be useful when the coach makes the 5-1 inversion. BTW, Fonteles was in the starting six because Lucarelli was injured.

It's not about how powerfull he is,but who he is within the team. As of now, Visotto is a "leader" in the group, like Dante and Bruno are.

Wallace is way better than Visotto, Wallace is fast powerful, effective, dynamic, has better defence and serve compared to Visotto. Most of the teams are not playing with their regular starting 6, so no need to be worried, Im shure he will use Wallace in more important tournaments:)

don't you guys think that Wallace is better than Vissotto? i don't get it why Rezende thinks different. Vissotto maybe is higher but he makes a lot of mistakes too... definitely more than Wallace

yep, it looked really dangerous...i hope Isac will be back soon. And it's nice to see Lipe in action :) he played good, but he may play much better and i'm sure that he will show it in the next future in the NT :) congrats Brasil! ;)
