Iranian Fans Surprised USA Captain David Lee


TEHRAN (Tasnim) – The US volleyball team's captain David Lee admits the Iranian noisy fans made difficult for them to play in Azadi Stadium.

Defending champion USA lost to Iran in straight set (25-19, 29-27, 25-20 ) in Tehran’s Azadi Stadium Friday night.

“The intensity in this arena is like nothing I have ever experienced before,” USA captain David Lee said.

“The crowd is deafening. It’s a really hard place to play.”

USA is scheduled to play Iran again in Pool B of the 2015 FIVB World League Sunday night.
