Betim, Brazil, December 8, 2019 – Cucine Lube Civitanova took home not only the trophy of the 2019 FIVB Volleyball Men’s Club World Championship as players of the Italian team secured most of the individual awards presented at the tournament in Betim, Brazil.
The Italian powerhouse had the Most Valuable Player of the tournament, setter Bruno Rezende, who was joined by three of his teammates in this edition’s Dream Team – outside hitter Osmany Juantorena, who’s now a five-time world champion, middle-blocker Robertlandy Simon and libero Fabio Balaso.
The Rio 2016 Olympic champion, though, had a true sportsman attitude as he called teammate Yoandy Leal to the podium and offered the MVP award to the Cuban-born outside hitter. Bruno and Leal are also teammates in the Brazilian national team that won the 2019 World Cup less than two months ago.
