Zenit
Alexey Spiridonov, the Russian star, didn’t play much in this final series but nevertheless, he was very happy.
„We won due to teamwork. Emotions are huge. We had to start winning once. Someone starts at age of 18, someone like me at 26 and some never win. Better late than never.“
Alexey Verbov, the libero of Zenit, expressed his admiration to Belogorie’s players.
„Tough matches. But, I personally wanted to play against Belogorie. This is the case when the opponent makes a volleyball holiday of your matches. I did not want Belogorie to stumble somewhere. Zenith wanted exactly this final – with the best of our potential opponents. As a result, we got the gold, on which we can be proud of.“
