We reckon we don't have to explain how she managed to drive a whole continent of volleyball geeks into fanboy-dom. Stare at the above photo again if you still don't get it.
The craze for this volleybelle started when the Taiwanese media noticed her during Kasakhstan's opening game against New Zealand at the 2014 Asian Junior Volleyball Championship held in Taipei. A few snaps and dutiful uploads later, her name blew up the Internet.
The Taiwanese media found her so irresistible that they couldn’t even conduct a decent interview with her! #MaskiKamiRinSiguro
We’re no psychologists, but judging from interview dude's body movements, his awkwardness is not entirely because of the language barrier. Right?
This brings us to our really bright idea: Since we also have our fair share of v-ball beauties, like Rachel Anne Daquis, Melissa Gohing, and the rest of the FHM Bionic Volleybelles, why don’t we invite Sabina and the rest of her team for a charity game? Hey, Mr. MVP, maybe you can use this to make bawi for the Last Home Stand Drills!
But while we wait for that to happen, let’s check out what else the Internet has to offer on Altynbekova Sabina. Just a fair warning, bro: you're about to drown in cuteness!
Sabina asks if that's really her on the news! Wondering what you did, babe?

We don't know if it's just us, but if Alodia Gosiengfiao became a volleyball player, this is probably how she'll look like.

Look, Rejoice Shampoo, she's a perfect "Haba Ng Hair" girl!

Every athlete (and pervert) knows the importance of stretching

Don't let her looks fool you, she's competitive!

Check out the Philippine flag on those posters!

She's a natural standout!

And she's not a fan of the duckface, which is really a good thing!

But like any gal, she also takes selfies!

Not sure if she's looking at us or just getting blinded by the sun

What we're sure of though, is that she's a big fan of David Beckham. Tsk!

Hold up! Is the Kazakhstan national volleyball squad comprised of models-turned-athletes?!
