Jan KrolOur whole team played very well today. Even before leaving Lisbon we had said we would win 3-0 in Warsaw. We were really angry at ourselves. Today we made that happen and we still have a chance to get to the quarterfinals. We now have to win against Tours VB and then surprise everyone in Perugia.

Ivo CasasWe are going back to Portugal empty-handed, unfortunately. We did our best, but Warsaw were much better today. The Warsaw players defended our attacks and used their counterattacks. Congratulations and good luck in the upcoming matches.
