Russia's 'Big Red' downs off-colour Brazil

Visakhapatnam, India, August 14, 2005 - Russia brushed aside Brazil 3-0 in the final of the FIVB Men's U21 World Championship on Sunday. In another powerful all-round team performance, the "Big Red Machine" romped home 30-28, 25-18, 25-23 in 73 minutes.

Brazil, wearing an unfamiliar dark green uniform as opposed to their customary canary yellow, never really got going against the European aristocrats, and finished well beaten.

It was Russia's third victory in the 13th edition of the junior men's world championship, and followed four earlier gold medals by the former Soviet Union. More
