Filipino volleyball fans in social media demanded and have been demanding for the ouster of Philippine women's volleyball head coach Jorge Souza de Brito, making the hashtag #OustDeBrito especially on X (formerly Twitter).

This came after the national team fell to host Vietnam, 25-14, 30-28, 25-22, in the opening of their SEA V.League Leg 2 campaign last Friday, August 8.

Internet fans said that de Brito is not maximizing his players, particularly the trio of Bella Belen, Alyssa Solomon, and Angel Canino, to make Alas compete in full strength.

This is not the first time the hashtag #OustDeBrito has trended online, as it happened just 2 months ago.

Here are some of their posts in X:
