Kiara Montes' assessment after Peru's elimination from the South American Volleyball Championship: "They're not the only ones sad in Lima"

The Peruvian women's national volleyball team, coached by Antonio Rizola, suffered elimination from the South American Volleyball Championship after losing all four of their matches in the tournament. The winless streak left the squad without any possibility of qualifying for the World Championship.

Following the team's exit, player Kiara Montes reflected on the difficult outcome and the widespread disappointment caused by the performance. Emphasizing the broader geographic impact of the team's struggles, Montes noted that the sorrow extends well beyond the capital, stating that people in Lima are not the only ones who are sad.
