The start of the European Championship is difficult for everybody. At first, it didn’t go well for us because our efficiency failed – after a good reception, we couldn’t finish the first attack. But then our block and serve pushed really hard. I think we played at a good level and generally, I’m satisfied with how my team performed,” says Slobodan Kovac.

We prepared for this game to start the competition with a victory. We began very well, we were concentrated, we played perfectly in the attack. We lost the first set because we gave Slovenia a chance to come back into the game. We let our opponents take advantage of our problems in reception. Our solutions just didn’t work. In the next matches, we must find our moment, but we know that we will face very strong teams. We must play better during the whole game, not only in the first set,” says coach of Spain Fernando Munoz.
