The Europeans will be joined by Brazilians Sada Cruzeiro and FUNVIC \u2013 Funda\u00e7\u00e3o Universit\u00e1ria Vida Crist\u00e3 in the final stage of the tournament that\u2019s being played in Betim, Brazil. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Lube and Trentino secured wins over Argentina\u2019s UPCN San Juan and Iran\u2019s Sirjan Foolad in the second match day at the Ginasio Poliesportivo Divino Braga and these results have eliminated the South Americans and Asians, who had lost to the Brazilians on Tuesday and will finish third in their pools.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">The winners of the 2019 edition of the tournament, which was also played in Betim, Lube pushed through the absence of Olympic medalists Osmany Juantorena and Ivan Zaytsev to take UPCN down in straight sets (25-19, 25-13, 25-21) and move to the top spot in Pool A.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">\u201cOur goal here is to play hard every match,\u201d setter Luciano De Cecco said. \u201cWe know that if we manage to play at our usual level, we have a good chance of making it to the final, which is our goal. But there are some really strong teams in the tournament and keeping a strong mindset and the right attitude on a daily basis will be key. Some of our most important players are injured, so it\u2019s going to be a team effort for us. Our younger players will have to play big roles for us and I think it will be a great experience for them.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-72951\" src=\"https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/264450927_4793703714025269_2112990653842867648_n-216x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"216\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/264450927_4793703714025269_2112990653842867648_n-216x300.jpg 216w, https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/264450927_4793703714025269_2112990653842867648_n-580x807.jpg 580w, https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/264450927_4793703714025269_2112990653842867648_n-500x696.jpg 500w, https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/264450927_4793703714025269_2112990653842867648_n.jpg 690w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 216px) 100vw, 216px\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Lube was in control the entire time and vastly outscored UPCN in kills (39-22), blocks (12-2) and aces (8-2).

Perhaps our serving could have been better, but it was important that we won and got all three points. Making it to the semifinal was our first goal and now we\u2019ll try to finish first in our pool. Sada Cruzeiro have been the best Brazilian team for some time and have several players from the national team, so playing against them will be a great test for us.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-72954\" src=\"https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/265641164_4793703727358601_3555573266311329500_n-201x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"201\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/265641164_4793703727358601_3555573266311329500_n-201x300.jpg 201w, https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/265641164_4793703727358601_3555573266311329500_n-580x865.jpg 580w, https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/265641164_4793703727358601_3555573266311329500_n-500x745.jpg 500w, https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/265641164_4793703727358601_3555573266311329500_n.jpg 644w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 201px) 100vw, 201px\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">The first and second-place spots in both pools and the semifinal matchups will be set on Thursday, when Lube face FUNVIC at 17.00 local time and Trentino meet Sada Cruzeiro at 20.30 local time. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">\u201cIt was interesting to play our first match in the tournament and adjust to the rules that are being tested here,\u201d Trentino captain Matey Kaziyski added. \u201cI\u2019m very happy for our victory and I think there are just a few things we need to pay more attention to going forward.
