Second victory in as many games was achieved by the National Youth Polo at the World Championship in Belgrade. Elias Machira’s side comfortably defeated Brazil 20-8, storming throughout the match.
The game started with the Greek internationals creating a safe goal difference (5-2), which gave them a boost in view of the continuation. The difference in quality was great, something that was also proven inside the playing field with the half ending at 12-5.
The continuation was similar with Greece reaching 20 active goals without putting a “brake” at any point. “First violins” in the attack were Christos Bitsakos, Andreas Almyras and Konstantinos Mathiopoulos with 4 goals each.
