Radostin Stoytchev (Azimut Modena Volley): “Today we missed a practice, we missed Earvin, the team was out of fit and with a bad organization. We played a bad game. In first set we had 6% in side out, in second 9% of efficiency. When you play this way you cannot win. Now I have to analyze the game”.
Valerio Baldovin (Kione Padova): “Winning here versus Modena is history for us, we had an high level of volleyball, despite the bad third set, we stayed unite and we won the game as a team. These players help me in my job. Now let’s enjoy this win, from tomorrow let’s think about next tough game versus Perugia”.
