The reigning Olympic champion was significantly stronger in blocking (15 vs. four from the Netherlands). Muserskiy and Mikhaylov shared the top scorer title with 14 points each.
Russia proved that they are getting out the crisis after poor performances in the 2015 World League. Thus, the new head coach of “Zbornaya” Vladimir Alekno debuted on the bench with a win.
The next clash between these two teams is scheduled for today, while the Dutch team will play against Iran, on Wednesday.
“Our level was not good enough yesterday, but today we will fight against one of the strongest teams of the world, Russia, again,” Kay van Dijk commented on the game on Instagram.
