Highlights
Mina Popovic"The second match of the Champions League is very important for us like all other matches. That's why we're getting ready. We are a good team. Right now we have to focus on the next game. We want to return with a win and go to the World Club Championship with morale."
Middle Blocker Fenerbahçe Opet ISTANBUL
Naz Aydemir Akyol"We have the last two games to play before the world clubs. Maybe we will play with a team that is not as strong as we are on it, we will shape it in a moral and well-trained way towards good world football training to play a game that can be developed in such a way that it can be developed as a training."
Setter Fenerbahçe Opet ISTANBUL
Borislav Krachanov"Fenerbahce are the favourites in our pool. I hope we will play without pressure to show our capabilities and be able to please our supporters. It is not an easy pool, but it is important for us to keep getting better. I do not think Fenerbahce will underestimate us. They will be as concentrated as possible."
Head coach of Maritza PLOVDIV
Ivelina Monova"The Champions League is a celebration for me. I want us to to celebrate without pressure on the court and we'll see what happens. Fenerbahce are strong, with very good players, but still this is sports - anything is possible. One's strength goes as far as one's dreams do. We dream, we train every day and we will give our best."

Match Report
Fenerbahçe too strong for Maritza
Article
Zoran Terzic"We won, we took the three points, so we are satisfied with the result today, but everything else wasn't so well. Only in the first set we played at our usual level. Maybe because it was very easy, our players got more relaxed and we had a problem. But it's normal. It happens sometimes, especially to a team that has many games during the season. So we continue in a good mood."
Head coach of Fenerbahce Opet Istanbul
Meliha İsmailoğlu"In such matches, if the opposing team is serving very well and defending very well, you always have difficulties. I think that we had some today. Although we didn't start very well, we finished very well. I am very happy that we won thanks to our team spirit. We were good in defence, and then did very well in offense. We are very happy that we won."
Player of Fenerbahçe Opet
Ana Cristina de Souza“We got a great win today, but it wasn't easy for us. The opponent showed excellent performance in defence. However, I am happy that we managed to overcome the difficulties.”
Player of Fenerbahçe Opet
Borislav Krachanov"Today we have to be proud - first, because of our team's performance, and second, because of our team's selfless devotion on the court. The fact that our players got to believe that we were capable of achieving something against a team like Fenerbahce makes me and my staff very pleased with a job well done. We fought well and did not give in through the end."
Head coach of Maritza Plovdiv
Ivelina Monova“I am really pleased. We could have won the third set, but after the 20th point, we lost 2-3 easy balls against this really strong team, so they took advantage of it, and seized their chances. The performance that we delivered today could only inspire us to believe even more in ourselves that if we fight for the impossible balls, and play as I team, we can play even better.”
