It is a fast and furious sport played under the sun and famed for its revealing attire - with a practical uniform of bikinis for women and board shorts for men . But these pictures show the contrasting cultures among some of the nations taking part in the Rio Olympics after the Egyptian women's beach volleyball team took to the sandy arena wearing long sleeves and leggings.
The outfit, used by Nada Meawad and Doaa Elghobashy, who also covered her head with a hijab, was in stark contrast to their German rivals Laura Ludwig and Kira Walkenhorst who stuck to the sport's traditional two-piece outfit for the clash last night.

The Germans won.
HA!
“The west is the best”
Merkel was probably rooting for the Muzzies.
“Get here, and we’ll do the rest”
I am astonished that they were even allowed to wear leggings. The women covering themselves is to prove that they are invisible in public. They must have a male relative accompany them when they are in outside world.
They are showing the contours of their body, their bare hands and feet. Somewhere in the Muslim world scimitars are sharpening for these women.
Looks like they were playing at night. I wonder how they compete in the hot sun?
They should just be grateful their husbands let them play....
Women are property nothing more... at least in these societies.
I thought the Muslim women were supposed to keep their ankles covered.
Egypt is one of the more “progressive” Muslim countries.
LOL! Wow what a photo!
Islamic countries will demand EVERYBODY wear the “modest” outfit, to be “fair”.
Don’t the Muslim women care that they are very unattractive in those silly outfits? The body suits must also restrict their movement: probably not good for volleyball.
How do you know there isn’t a male inside that clothing?
She is wearing provocative makeup !
OFF WITH HER HEAD!
lol
Why doesn’t the Egyptian team use men in women’s volleyball. With that ‘concealing’ garb and a bit of makeup, they could get away with it.
