“We had prepared very carefully for this game; we knew that their main strength is their reception so we wanted to serve strong so as to shake their back line and prevent them from displaying their fast attacks” says Dinamo star Tatiana Kosheleva.
“We have been waiting for quite some time for this game and we really wanted to achieve a good result tonight” adds head coach Svetlana Ilic. “We played really good and my players were concentrated from the start up to the very end.
