“I look at our sweaty jerseys and my heart beats faster: that is what we are, a team that plays like a team. Look at me and William switch places to win the match. In our team nobody is untouchable, and all want to contribute. That is why we won more than any other national team in recent history,” Bruno Rezende, Brazil setter and captain.
“My men never stopped playing together, and that allowed us to do some incredible things. No prediction on the second semifinal and, most important, no preference: Poland and USA are two formidable teams,” says Renan Dal Zotto, head coach of Brazil.
“We give credit to Brazil: they were the best in all skills and punished us for every little mistake we made. But I cannot blame my team either: I believe they did good – even if they could have done a little better,” explains Nikola Grbic, head coach of Serbia.
“We keep having these ups and downs – that’s our flaw and we have to understand how to fix it. Congratulations to Brazil, and now let’s regroup and fight for the bronze medal until the end, and enjoy the beautiful atmosphere created by the Serbian and Italian fans today,” says Aleksandar Atanasijevic.
