Gimnasia crushed the Xeneize team that arrived in La Plata on Wednesday afternoon determined to spoil the Albiazul party, but ran into a tripero team that gave them no breath and prevailed in three straight sets to win the “Miwok” Cup of the Metropolitan Volleyball Federation (FMV).
After the conquests of the last Metropolitan Tournament and Super 8, Las Lobas made history again by defeating Boca in the definition of the Champions Cup held in honor of the 90th anniversary of the FMV. The albiazul team gave a lecture at the Víctor Nethol Sports Center and achieved an overwhelming victory with partial scores of 25-23, 25-17 and 25-18. San Lorenzo, meanwhile, was third after beating Estudiantes 3-1.
Those directed by Martín Ambrosini were far superior to their rival and won with category, showing off the experience of their referents. Thus, before more than 3,000 fans, they crowned a dream night at the 4 between 51 and 53 venue and unleashed the madness of all the fans.
Las Lobas arrived emboldened after winning the 2022 Division of Honor, the Super 8 at the end of the year and having reached the finals of the last Argentine League, recovering the perseverance that always characterized them. The tripero team is now aiming all the guns at the start of a new League, in which Boca will defend the title against Gimnasia, Estudiantes and 12 other teams.
In the preview of the match, she was applauded by the entire Sports Center Alicia Casamiquela. The historic coach of Las Lobas received the affection of the fans, who remembered her work in the world of women’s volleyball and, in particular, at the very beginning of the albiazul team.
Casamiquela was the first female coach of a national team and in 2007 she was recognized for “her career” by the Argentine Olympic Committee itself. In her palmares there is a long list of conquests, but she also has Illustrious Citizen of La Plata and Outstanding Woman of La Plata recognitions, among many others.
