🔴LIVE Score - Argentina vs Brazil | Men's Olympic volleyball For Brazilian volleyball player Lucas Saatkamp, the decision to wear a mask at the Tokyo Olympics is about protecting his family and not sending a message. With a 5-year-old son back home in Brazil who needs to use an inhaler because of respiratory issues, the last thing the player known as Lucão wants to do is endanger his son, wife and newborn daughter. “I don’t want to be the model for using the mask,” he said Tuesday through an interpreter. “My only main point is to protect myself and my family. It’s not to be a role model.” Lucão said he had the coronavirus in January, dealing with a fever and bad headache but no major issues. But despite having some protection because he had the disease and was vaccinated before coming to the Olympics, he still made the decision to wear the mask. Lucão said he hasn’t heard any praise or criticism for his decision because he doesn’t spend much time reading articles or consuming social media. He says the mask doesn’t really impact his performance on the court where he has helped the Brazilians reach the semifinals in his third Olympics after winning a silver medal in 2012 and gold in 2016. “For me it’s OK because volleyball is different from other sports,” he said. “There are more pauses to have time to breathe, unlike running or soccer. For me it’s not uncomfortable.” Lucão isn’t the only Brazilian volleyball star to play with a mask. Teammate Mauricio Borges, who has played as a reserve in Tokyo, has also competed with a mask, as has women’s setter Macris Carneiro before she went down with an ankle injury in a win over Japan. argentina vs brazil,argentina vs brazil live,volleyball world,brazil volleyball,olympics 2020,argentina vs brazil volleyball olympics 2021,argentina vs brazil volleyball,argentina vs brazil volleyball live,olympics volleyball,olympics volleyball 2021,mens olympic volleyball,mens olympic volleyball 2021,mens olympic volleyball live,tokyo 2020,tokyo olympics volleyball,tokyo olympics volleyball 2021 #OlympicsbasketballLive #mensOlympicFootballLive #ArgentinavsBrazilMensVolleyballOlympicsLive #LiveVolleyballOlympics #Tokyo2020 #TokyoolympicsVolleyball #TokyoOlympicsMensVolleyball #TokyoOlympic2021 #Volleyballolympics2021 #VolleyballolympicsLiveScore #OlympicsVolleyballLiveScore #MensOlympicsVolleyballLiveScore #ArgentinavsBrazilVolleyballLivematch
