Apparently Tandara has been suspended for failing a doping test. Huge turn of events for Brazil That's putting it mildly...

This barely changes anything unless Brazil is banned from the tournament and ROC replaces them. Would that even happen or would Korea get a BYE to the Olympic FINAL?!
Rosamaria is more than capable of playing that position, same as Ana Cristina or Natalia. Ze has options.

It's not like Brazil without Tandara can't beat Korea. They just need to regroup, calm down, and keep their composure.
(that doesn't mean I'm not rooting for Korea though)

True...still, Tandera taking banned substance is... a little shocking and rather disappointing.

Lets hope Korea take advantage of this...hopefully. Also, the mood swings could go either way when these unexpected events happen. The team that better copes with this news will be the team that wins.

They beat Brazil in the World Cup. Now they don’t have Tandara. If anything, their chances got even better

What position did the twins play? Do they make Korea that much of a better team?

Even with Tandara out, Brazil is still formidable. But anything can happen, I didn't believe that S. Korea had a chance against Karakurt and Turkey, but they pulled it off.

True...still, Tandera taking banned substance is... a little shocking and rather disappointing. It is a provisional suspension for potential use of a banned substance. Let's wait until the final decision comes out. The most recent volleyball players caught in a doping test that I remember were Sylla and Antonijevic in 2017 and both were cleared of any wrongdoing.
