Our feet may be have been French Fried but our heads stayed cool during the whole tournament. After losing the first game by only one point, we won an amazing 11 games in a row. The most incredible thing is that in all of those games (including semi and final), we were always down by two or three at a certain point of the game, but we stayed cool and always caught up and won (several times by 1 point).

We each played better at Bar do Peixe than at home. We felt like a real team, we started to know each other and we all learned to like and trust our teammates. This was our strength, along with our great communication and team's meetings before and after each game.
