Russia
Head coach Vladimir Kuzyutkin:
“I think Puerto Rico played well against us. It’s a great pride that Puerto Rico is a small country, but has a great volleyball team like this. We played up to our standard. My aim is to see Russia qualify to the 2012 London Olympic Games. It’s a sorry tale as I signed a two-year contract to be the Russia’s head coach.”

Captain Marina Sheshenina:
“We played well. We trained hard in preparation for the tough match against Puerto Rico. I’m glad that we can beat them to avenge the last week’s loss.”

Head coach Carlos Cardona:
