The Block Devils are off to the Russian capital, where they will play the CEV Cup return leg on Wednesday night. A reaction is needed after yesterday’s poor display in Piacenza. In the first leg, Zaytsev had won it in straight sets.
“Piacenza played very well – said Serbian outside hitter Aleksandar Atanasijevic – Even if we won it in the end, we’re not satisfied. We have so much to learn from those games. We played poorly in every fundamental yesterday. I think we all need to look at our own individual performances to start with, we have to think more positive and have more confidence in our ability. Once again yesterday we were ahead in the first set but eventually lost it. It’s not the first time this year, I don’t know if it’s a question of attitude or fear”.
