“I’m glad we won this game which proved to be difficult – explained Nikolov on the Cev Cup victory in France over Tourcoing Lille – They are amongst the best teams in France, they have played many finals over the years and gained experience. Our main difficulty was that we haven’t had the time to train properly with the Mikasa ball, our serve was not as efficient as usual and neither was our overall game”.
“There was a sold out crowd and a good atmosphere – said Patriarca – It was a hard-fought game and I think the fans enjoyed it”.
