orea coach Wongil Park: We prepared well for their serves. The other team had a lot of formation changes so we needed to change as well. We thought about a lot of ideas to prepare for this. The reception was also important for our win today.
Korea captain Ikje Choi: In the beginning of the match, the outside spikers were a bit confused with the reception. They did less than what they were expected to do. But we were able to adjust and overcome this difficulty and all through to the end, we just played a great game as a team.

Egypt coach Nehad Shehata: I think my team was too tired from their match on Thursday against Cuba. We played five sets, so maybe we were too exhausted. It was hard to recover in such short time so maybe we had a bit of bad luck. Anyway, we will try to improve our skills in our next match to be able to get a good ranking in this tournament.
