They have an amazing block-defence system, they are not that tall but you can see that it&#8217;s really difficult to put the ball on the floor. I&#8217;m really proud of my team, because we had many moments when we couldn&#8217;t do our best, but players from the bench were coming in and giving us energy in the moment when we were struggling a little bit.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have to play like this, aggressive all the time, keeping the balance in all the elements. These are the finals of the VNL, so it&#8217;s never easy to play. And now it&#8217;s time for gold. We had an opportunity two years ago, we were leading 2-0 with the USA, but we didn&#8217;t manage to win this game.
