Miguel Angel Lopez

Havana, May 1 (JIT) - Cuban Miguel Angel Lopez was - for the second consecutive year - the most valuable player of the Brazilian Volleyball Super League 2023, in which his team Sada Cruzeiro was crowned champion for the eighth time.

Led by Lopez, nicknamed "the Flying Cuban", Sada defeated Itambé Minas in three sets in the only match for the title.

Lopez sealed another outstanding day as the most outstanding player of the match, scoring 22 points, and deserved the VivaVôley trophy and the distinction of MVP of the tournament.

He also rounded off his individual performance by being chosen as the best receiving attacker of the main volleyball championship of the South American Giant.

For Sada, it was his fifth title in the campaign, as he also won the Mineiro Cup, the Super Cup and the Brazilian and South American Cups. He also won the bronze medal in the world club competition.

After the victory in Sao Paulo, Lopez declared that "our whole team deserves this title, we fought until the end. Fortunately I managed to help him and showed a good performance".

"I managed to give everything I had on the field. And everything went well, we were champions once again and I am very proud of what we built throughout the season. They said that our team was finished in difficult moments, but we were able to hold on very well, keep our heads straight," he expressed.

This Superliga success represents the 49th trophy in Sada Cruzeiro's history.

And in Italy, this Monday begins the final of the Superliga and a Cuban will also seek to be crowned, Marlon Yant, one of the mainstays of the current champion Lube Civitanova.

The best-of-five final between the Lube and Trentino, where no Cuban volleyball player plays.
