The Canadian team defeated Iran 3-1 (25-23, 25-22, 21-25, 25-21) in Week 2 of the VNL in San Juan, Argentina.
“We came here with an ambitious goal – two victories with difficult opponents in mind. Fortunately we made it even better by winning three matches,”
“We are very happy. We improved a lot from last weekend and even when we have very difficult games ahead, we can have faith in making it to the Final Six if we keep on playing like this,” the French added.
Canada player Ryan Sclater also said, “I think we did a good job making sure that even when they started to play better, we didn’t give up in many long runs. We played a very consistent game and we had great team energy here in Argentina.”
“We had confidence and each player contributed in different ways. Everybody is really happy to help the team and that made the difference this weekend,” he stated.
