Tsvetan Sokolov, opposite of Bulgaria: “We made too many errors especially in serving, but we managed to win. It is a really important win for us, but this is only the start of the tournament. So now it is time to rest and prepare for our next opponent, Canada.” 

Nikolay Penchev on the other side said: “I am so happy with this victory. It was amazing, but this was only the first match and we already spent a lot of energy. When we play like we did today, everything is left behind us. I mean small injuries and other problems. Tomorrow I expect another tough match against Canada and we must be ready for this new challenge.”
