Riffa, Bahrain, August 21, 2017 - Russia won their second match in Pool C of the 2017 FIVB Volleyball Boy’s U19 World Championship with 3-0 (25-17, 25-11, 25-15) against Chile but the European side are not pleased with their error count in Monday’s match at Isa City Sports Hall.
Russia coach Andrey Nozdrin: We committed big errors today which I do not like at all. We need to do something about our mistakes. We need to work more and prepare more for the next match. I hope we can play better.
Russia captain Konstantin Abaev: I thought we did not play so well today. We had so many mistakes that we could have limited. Of course we won the match, but I think we are only at 30 percent or 40 percent of the ideal level of play that we want to achieve.

Chile coach Ivan Villareal: It is the first time we played against Russia, which is a very strong team. When you have to face such a strong team like them, you must put in the best work you can. Unfortunately, we were not able to do that. The boys were nervous and played under pressure with too many mistakes. We just want to focus on becoming better in the next match.
