Hugo Silva: Everything changed in the last set

 

Poprad, Slovakia, June 3, 2017 - Huge Silva claims it was the change in Portugal’s performance in the decisive set allowed the team to win the entire game. 


Portugal coach, Hugo Silva - "Japan played very well today and we had many problems, our best middle blocker Keller Gil get injured in the first ball of the match. In the fifth set our game changed a bit, and that is the reason we won in the end."



Portugal captain, Alexandre Ferreira - "We made lot of mistakes today. It was the second five set match and we played permanently for three weeks so I am personally little bit tired. We knew we could win 3:0 or 3:1, we have better blocks but we need to work more on concentration."

Japan opposite, Issei Otake - "We should win this match, because we played really well today. I take this on my shoulder, because I am opposite and I must take more responsibility. We played better like in the first match, but we have to show more fight spirit."
