Ruse, Bulgaria, September 15, 2018 - The Netherlands shocked with the biggest surprise in Pool B at the 2018 FIVB World Championship! Gido Vermeulen’s players achieved an amazing win against the current Olympic champion Brazil 3-1 (21-25, 25-20, 25-20, 25-21) in one of the most interesting matches in “Arena Monbat”.

Gido Vermeulen’s players also started to play pretty well in attack and block, which led them to 25-20. Thijs Ter Horst was the most prolific player on the field in this minutes with 10 points.

The Europeans took early 4-point advantage (11-7) in the third set, but with a great serving by Lucas Saatkamp and unbelievable blocking by Lipe, Brazil came back and made the result 12-11.
