Andrei Radziuk"It was an amazing game and were the heroes. The third set gave us chance to come back and we took it. It's really amazing because in first two sets the Finnish team was awesome and also their fans were very loud and amazing. After third set we the saw Finnish team is really tired and we took the chance."

Viktar Beksha"Our start of the match was awful. Finland served well and we made too many mistakes on the serve. We did not use our middle-blockers in the attack. In the second set Finland did not play well in defence, we were fighting, improved our performance, and still we lost. Then we made a good substitution with Udrys instead of Miskevich. He scored many important points. The third set was crucial, since we bounced back after a defeat. We are happy to still have chances to fight for the next round."

Elviss Krastins"After second set we lost energy and got some bad luck. Some balls we should have handled better and this had effect on our mentality. It was a tough game and Belarus team played an amazing match. They put very good preasure on us."

Joel Banks"That is not bitter, this is sports. And sports is physical but is also mental. And we were very, very good in the first two sets, in set 3 a little bit sloppy from time to time, but the level was still quite high. In set 4 we played against a different team. The team suddenly has a boost of confidence and they played differently. For us the game plan was good throughout. We did not have the serve pressure in the end and we could not convert some of the chances."
