Alessia Orro best player at volleyball World Cup, Paola Egonu excluded from best team

Alessia Orro was honored as the best player of the Women’s Volleyball World Cup: the Italian setter is the picture of joy after the Azzurre’s triumph in the final against Turkey. “It wasn&#8217t important how, we brought it home. Thirty-six consecutive wins and we end this summer on a high note. I still can”t believe it.

“I still haven&#8217t realized. Like at the Olympics, then it took me days to realize. I am so proud of these girls. Despite the difficulties we achieved what we have worked for for so many years. We were able to pull out the grit in the fifth set, all we had left. Thanks to everyone”.

On the other hand, Paola Egonu was left out: the role of best opposite went to the wild Turkish Melissa Vargas, who was amazing in the final with 33 points. The best female setters are Japan&#8217s Mayu Ishikawa and Brazil&#8217s Gabi, while the second best center is Turkey&#8217s Eda Erdem.
