"It was very important for us to start with a victory in the European Golden League".
Stefan Lupu, a volleyball player of the Romanian national team, told Idman.biz
He commented on the match in which they won 3:0 (25:16, 25:16, 25:19) against the Azerbaijan national team in the first match of the Golden European League in Baku. According to Lupu, they did not have much information about Azerbaijan team before the game: "Because the Azerbaijan national team has not played in official games for two years. But we witnessed the presence of strong players in the match. We achieved great success by defeating them. Winning has always been our main goal. I am very happy that we won. We played a good game. "Perhaps we did not allow the Azerbaijan national team to do its best".
He highly appreciated the organization: "It's important for us to start with victory. We didn't know so much about the Azerbaijani team because they don't play official games unless two years. However we saw that they have strong players. We did a great job today with taking care of them. Winning was the first thing that I was thinking about. I am happy to. Maybe we expected a little bit more intensive game. But we show very good performance. We didn't let them play better than they can. The gym is quite nice. I saw that you organized these kind of competitions well and they makes big noise".
