“I think that we did not start that bad – up until the first time-out, it did not look bad at all, but later on, we couldn’t stop Rahimova nor Mammadova, while Poznyak was also doing a good job.

Our girls do not often face the kind of serve we saw in the second set when a jump-served ball was flying at 100km/h or faster.
