On Saturday afternoon, the Slovenes shut out Turkey again. The home side beat the opponents by 3:0 (25-18, 26-24, 25-20) and took the lead surpassing the also unbeaten FYR of Macedonia on top of the standings by one point.
Luka Slabe, head coach of Slovenia: “Today’s circumstances were almost impossible to play. It was nearly 30 degrees in the hall. I am happy that both teams finished the match with no injuries. Because of the heat we also had some problems with the basis on the floor, but luckily the matches are over. It was obviously that both teams are tired. But again, we deserved the victory and these 3 points. From now on, the really important and difficult games are coming, which will give the answers if Slovenia will be in the first place in the pool.”
