Brazil - Italy Highlights

Highlights of great camera shots made by Polish transmission producer during Olympic final between Italy and Brazil. Let's see the best volleyball players in that time: Giba, Ricardo, Dante Amaral, Andrea Sartoretti and Luigi Mastrangelo. "We have two gold medals now, one for the World Championship and one for the Olympic Games. That is all that matters" Giba said. “We are winners. We were here for the first place, every player had this and only this in his mind. I am so happy". The gold medal triumph completes a cycle where Brazil have won every trophy available on the international circuit, including the 2002 World Championship, the 2003 & 2004 World League and the 2003 World Cup titles. “I want to congratulate my team because it was tough to win, we had the weight of a nation on our shoulders,” Brazilian coach Bernardo Rezende said. “It wasn’t easy leaving Brazil knowing that we were expected to win. That is a major strength of this team, holding together despite the pressure and being a team rather than a bunch of individuals. We deserved it because we held our poise and that will be the legacy of this team.”
