“They insisted on service, we managed to calm down their enthusiasm, to be constant and in the end, the result that we managed to pull is phenomenal and it was pulled in front of the home fans. Lets be frank, everyone gave up on us. Everyone said that they had better libero, better setter, better outside hitters, everything better, but here you are – Serbia win,” Serbia head coach Slobodan Kovač said after the game against France.

“At one point we stopped a little bit, it was in the fourth set, but it’s all normal. The audience pushes home teams in this tournament, but we managed to impose a good game. We managed to get their outside hitters off the net, we played as we agreed to play. When concentration fell a little bit, the coach had to react and it turned out well in the fifth set,” Kovač added.
