“At one point we just stopped playing. We stopped being aggressive… We just weren’t playing smart volleyball, and if you are not playing smart volleyball then you can’t really win games against a strong team such as Pomi Casalmaggiore. Today it almost looked like they wanted to win more than us, which is not OK. We always have to fight for it and want it more than the other team. They were playing amazing defense and we were not able to respond today,” said Akinradewo after the match
