Estonia coach Gheorghe Creţu: It all depends how we step inside the game. In the last set Qatar scored on our errors but I am happy that our guys were able to step over them. We have very good block-defense and every opponent has difficulties to score against us in long rallies.

We prepared some things and some time in all sets they worked but all in all Estonia was just too strong for us. Difference between the two teams was evident. But I am sure that if we can play on this kind of level we could challenge Greece and Venezuela. In conclusion playing in this kind of tournament is unusual for us and we enjoy every moment of it.
