Press release

Sergey Ovchinnikov, coach of Russia: I thank all of our players. We won almost all of the matches 3-0. I can't thank the players enough. We had time for preparation and communication between the players for this tournament.

Norimasa Sakakuchi, coach of Chinese Taipei: We have not had much experience against such tall teams like Russia. Our players showed courage with their attacks and blocks. We will go home and review our performance and see how we can improve.

Ekaterina Gamova, player of Russia: This tournament is now over and we won. I'm very happy we won every match but one by 3-0 scores. It may look easy for us, but this was a difficult and complicated tournament to play.

Teng Yen Min, captain of Chinese Taipei: It was our first match ever against Russia. They had so much height and powers. We must improve our speed and skills to compete with teams like this.
