Once again, as he did many times already throughout his career, Sergey Tetyukhin was the man of the match. We are grateful to him and could never thank him enough for what he has done for Russian volleyball,” says Alekno, after the win against Germany in semis.

Germany coach Vital Heynen said:

If all players on our team play their best, we can beat the Olympic champions. If this does not happen, it becomes very difficult for us. This is not a problem, as such things happen in sport. We made a way too many mistakes and this is something you simply can’t afford when playing a team like Russia. We have 18 hours to reset and play the small final. It’s about all or nothing.
