🇧🇷 BRAZIL vs JAPAN 🇯🇵 | Highlights

JAPAN vs BRAZIL | Semi Finals Highlights | Women's VNL 2024. The semi-finals of the Volleyball Nations League 2024 were held in Bangkok, Thailand on Saturday, June 22nd.
The Japan Women's National Team, ranked 7th in the FIVB World Rankings (before the start of the match), faced Brazil, ranked 1st, and won with a set score of 3-2 (26-24, 20-25, 25-21, 22-25, 15-12). By winning their match against Brazil, who are in the same group as them in the Paris 2024 Olympic qualifying round, the team has secured a place in the finals and secured their first medal at this tournament. This is the first time in 10 years that the Japan Women's National Team has won a medal in an Olympic or International Volleyball Federation tournament, since winning a silver medal at the 2014 World Grand Prix.
Their next opponent for the finals will be Brazil, who they have lost their last three matches against in full sets. They will be hoping for a win as a prelude to the Paris 2024 Olympics.
In the first set, Japan took a 2-point lead with a block point by ARAKI Sayaka and a service ace by YAMADA Nichika. WADA held on to make it 21-22, but they still had the set point at 21-24. However, with incredible tenacity, they scored consecutive points to turn the game around to 25-24, and finally won the first set 26-24 with a powerful shot from Wada that deflected the opponent's block.
In the second set, Koga Sarina and others played well to get the score at 5-3, and then Koga's service ace and Yamada's block point made it 9-5. Libero Fukudome continued to pick up Brazil's powerful spikes, bringing momentum to the team. In the middle of the set, Brazil, which has many offensive tricks, caught up with Japan at 11-11 and allowed them to turn the game around. Setter Iwasaki Koyomi also tried to find an attacking pattern to prevent the opponent's block from focusing on Japan, but Brazil, which had better block defense than Japan, left Japan behind at 14-17. Japan held on until the end, but the set count was tied at 1-1 at 20-25.
In the third set, Yamada scored consecutive points from his serve, and Ishikawa scored points with blocks. Kojima also made a super receive, and the match was evenly matched at 9-9. Iwasaki scored points with a serve that varied in speed, leading to a 12-10 lead, and then Miyabe Airi, who came in as a substitute, scored a direct spike to make it 14-11, but they gave up consecutive block points and were closed to a one-point difference at 14-13. Wada's spike was successful in the end to take the third set at 25-21.
In the fourth set, Japan was overwhelmed by Brazil from the start, and allowed them to take a 0-6 lead. In order to change the flow of the game, Inoue Arisa and Seki Nanami were sent onto the court, and Japan closed the gap to 5-8. Japan closed the gap to just two points at 15-17, and with both teams playing well towards the end of the set, it was a close match at 21-21. However, Brazil took the lead and took the set 25-22, forcing Japan into a full set for the fourth consecutive match against Brazil.
In the fifth set, Yamada's serve led to four consecutive breaks, giving the team a good start at 4-0, and Wada's spike and Miyabe's consecutive blocks put the team ahead at 7-1 in the first half. Brazil also fought back to close the gap to 7-6, but Ishikawa's spike led to a court change at 8-6. Brazil fought back hard to tie the score at 9-9, but Koga and others held on and made it 10-10, not allowing the team to come back. After that, Koga scored a difficult toss from Kojima to make it 11-10, Wada's back attack made it 12-11, and Yamada's service ace put them in the lead at 13-11. Ishikawa's spike put them in checkmate at 14-12, and Ishikawa scored again to take the score at 15-12, winning the fierce full-set battle.

What a great performance by Japanese team 🇯🇵 😮! They are playing on a high level 🎉 Unbelievable!

[@JerseyRepresenting]

I have a crush on Koga, but Brasíl is no joke! Great rallies!

[@Gaius__]

Brazil vs Japan has become the most interesting match up to watch, over the last two years or so. Also, I can watch Gabi swing all day, that unique movement she employs looks so awesome. Regrettably, no more Koga for Japan, after Paris. They have been grooming a replacement for her, of course, but I will still miss her, she is such an excellent player.

[@PedroGarcia-cb2fl]

Que partido ... Casi se le cae todo el colágeno a Brasil jejeje pero fue un hermoso partido adoro a Japón pero el Juego de Ana Cristina es fenomenal va ser una de las que sorprendera en las olimpiadas ❤❤❤❤❤

[@ley_wesst]

If Brazil gets screwed, I'll be happy, eternal customer of Japan 🇯🇵....What's more, Thaisa needs to stop shouting and have more respect for her opponents... even more so with this botched facelift 😅

[@viniciusbarbosa5542]

She turns her back before shouting, that's nothing wrong with that

[@Bebebettyw]

I think she just shout with her team when she makes a point, she is not shouting at her opponents.

[@Amanda.apenas321]

Você é só uma hater sem vida , é a única que não pode exigir educação nem respeito de ninguém

[@hashzbedu2-23]

wait what? I do not know about volleyball at all, but at least I know Brazil is one of the top contenders of all time. I assume this is the equivalent of the Japan football team winning against Brazil.

[@kaiquegom3s]

It's quite unusual, but compared to football, Japan in volleyball is much stronger.

[@AlfiusWiro]

Woww japan amazing

Is Brasil out?

[@user-nh1mf9ct2u]

어쩌다 우리 배구 수준이 일본과 이렇게 격차가 났는지 배구지도자, 배구협회 관계자, 그리고 선수들은 머리를 맞대고 고민해야 할 것이다. 우선 현재의 감독들을 전부 일본 감독들로 교체해보는 방법은 어떨런지?

[@0420]

Stop comparing. You guys doing great too

[@user-zt1kz5df7t]

@@0420no, It's no consolation, Korea's ranking is far below 30th place, silly consolations will make Korea even more miserable.

I don't understand why you think they are rivals of Brazil, our rivals in volleyball and Russia, USA, Italy. You are not worthy of being our rivals at the moment 😂
