Poland 🇵🇱 vs. Brazil 🇧🇷 - Highlights | Week 3 | Women's VNL 2026

The whistle is blown. It is time. Brazil on the right side in the yellow. They come home on the left side in the red. And the first swing have overtaken 7 to 6. Dina trying to remedy that. Oh, good pick up. Coming again. This is Helena's strength, is that medium situation where it doesn't stop being gigantic. She can always go and hit where the block has to time the ball. Only 177, not in the gigantic club. It makes it look so. There's the speed from Julia. Oh, what a tee. They're coming over. Marcelli's on it as well. And a Christina. Slice and dice, if you like. Great patience from Brazil in the transition play. Everyone on the right hand side. Third set point for Brazil. Any clues in here? You see? Off hand, but that's defended well. Chance for Poland. High tip, easily read. Helena. Kissy. Touch and another great defense. Poland keeping it in play. Marcelli underneath it. And Bergman. Yes, the touch is there. And that means that set is going to Brazil 25 to 20. Two different areas. Let's have a look at this final play. Bergman, she's just really strong. She doesn't need a big approach. She doesn't need to have a lot of movement. She can deal with these situations with power really well. Look at the closed fist on that one, too. There is zero desire to put top spin on that ball. Neat solution by Julia Bergman. Set number two underway. Poland with the first serve. And Brazil with the first swing. Bergman tickles it off the block and out of bounds. Went out to a good lead in the first set. They're already up two. And finally. One of the added benefits of having Stysiak out there is it makes everyone else a little bit that brings some control for Brazil. In the reception. And so is Helena in the attack monster block by Stysiak. Helena is gigantic. Stysiak is gigantic. Can they get some support for her somewhere else? Stysiak needs to find a little bit more ball. Second. And that is a fireball. She arrives with such momentum. And then we know what power she has in her Polish block and defense. Cristina stepping into the reception. Very nice slide from Brazil. High ball opportunity. Ana, oh, off the foot. Robert Lewandowski would be proud of that one. Again, and Poland get it done. Off the feet, off the hands. That is a huge play for Poland. Whatever it takes to get the win. First ball going. The result is a good touch in the block for Poland. And the defense, of course, Szykloska. Marseille equal to it. Chance Gitsetska. She is covered by her teammates. Pushes it out. Bergman finishes a long rally for Brazil. Bergman, having taken a quick excursion to the Polish side of the net mid-rally, ends up back in the line. Just have a two-point advantage on the serve. Cristina pummels it between two players. See the call again to get Gianna with some movement to create some space. Gitsetska moves early. First set point for Poland. It's a perfect pass. And Cristina, oh, she's not on the floor yet. Tomaszka, right to the libero. And Cristina again, oh, another defense for Poland. Tomaszka, still Brazil denying Poland any joy. Until a big monster block comes in. And Poland have taken the set 25 to 23. On indeed. Here's a look at that final swing. How about the defense in that rally? Great read and timing. Finishes off strong left hand. Poland, the aggressor at the net in that set. It felt like him. Here we go then. One set apiece. And we are ready to go. Set number three. Brazil with the first serve. And the first defense to go with it. Roberta gets the starting nod. And she feeds that pipe. Concession of space from the attacking receiver because they want to get out. It's a big area. Roberta after two ace serves. Wait, two on down the line. Lovely recycle. It's got Poland there. All that's played. And Mr. Schack, how's it? Speed is good. That's a little bit too much. Speed is good. Greed is good. And so is that serve. How about an ace serve for Poland? Believable contact by Szykłowska. This ball is so hard to cut back. Later pops in. Was there. But Brazil managed to squeak it through. First set point. Take for Anna-Christina. Chance for Brazil. The blocks were there. There's the roll. Stusiak out of it. Koseska into the bottom of a big Brazilian block. And that set goes Brazil's way. We saw her earlier on. Everyone was giving hugs. And she said, come on. Only if you're playing against her. Right now, we are getting underway. Fourth set is going. And Poland get themselves on the board first and foremost. Alina Damaska gets the start in set number four. And gets the scoreboard opened. Koseska takes for Anna-Christina. She's on the right side of court this time. Bergman opens up. Chance for Stusiak. Oh, flying in. There is no reason why she should be able to do that. That ball is the focus. Locked in on this set. Have to be, because Poland getting a bit sneakier. Stusiak. She wants the look of the hand. If you're not trying to convince anyone, you're not trying to convince your coach to call a touch. However, it's there. To the pride and true. Point. She comes on the libero. Stusiak swinging. Oh, what a coverage. Koseska to keep Poland in it. And she has found that corner again. Third match point. Another pressure serve. Anna-Christina. And again, Poland are skating on the thinnest pressure serve. Brazil out of system. Free ball on Stusiak. Gets her out of the offense. Damaska, not down yet. For that time, oh, with a fumble. That one stays in play somehow, someway. Damaska. No touch. Just give. Net touch there. Click of the ponytail. That doesn't count. The net is already moving is the problem. Fourth set point. Fourth match point. For Brazil to close it out in four. Can they do it? Opportunity here. The run down. Roberta is on it. Done it. They have won in four over Poland.
