Belgium simple couldn’t do anything in this game as the rival had a huge help from the fans.
“Today Italy was superior and better than us, they played really good, especially in breakpoint phase. I haven’t ever seen their defense like this before. They deserve very much this victory, we can make progress for the rest of the tournament to make difficulties for these strong teams who will come in the future,” says Sam Deroo Belgium captain.
“Great game, great supporters! We were able to play as we planned, high rythm plays to put them under pressure. We were concentrated and determined, and now we can’t relax, our thoughts are already on Argentina, the last game versus them we were defeated, we are looking for another revenge,” says the top scorer of the game with 20 points, Ivan Zaytsev.
Italy now have 2-0 score, while Belgium have one win out ot two games.
