Benjamin Toniutti"We have to think about the first game. It will be tough. We have to recover a little bit and prepare to this match in the best way. They are coming from a Saturday’s loss, so they will have the knife between the teeth. We know that is a good team. We won the Super Cup, they won the Polish Cup. Now it is a new competition and two best teams in Poland in this momment are playing against each other in Champions League semi-final. So it is a nice event"
Setter JASTRZEBSKI Wegiel
Jan Hadrava"The first match out of those three clashes could have big importance. We have to play as a team, have fun and try to avoid the mistakes. We should play as good as we showed it fighting against Lube. We will see if it is enough for ZAKSA"
