    "First of all, we are very happy because finally we get to play. We've been working so hard, but we often could not play in the French championship during the past month. I am happy for my players, because they can finally show the results of our daily hard work and because for the first time, the mood inside the court was what we are looking for. The Champions League is our dream and when you play in such an important competition you have to let your dream come true. I just want to say 'thank you' to my staff and to my players, because it was a great game." - Francois Salvagni, head coach ot ASPTT Mulhouse

    We have to admit that Mulhouse played some very good volleyball today. Our blocking was not at its usual level and that affected our defence as well, especially in the second and the third sets. So it was a tough start for was, but we have to look ahead. to the next matches, against teams that are much stronger physically. We will prepare for them and we'll go for the win."
