Thomas Jaeschke"I think this matchup is very different from the last champions league match. Jastrzebski play very clean volleyball. Any small mistakes we make they will expose. They have one of the best and most experienced setters in the world and he has won at every level. This means we need to focus on our side of the net. We are making progress as a team and this is a great match up that will test us as a group."
Outside hitter Halkbank ANKARA
Taner Atik"Wegiel is one of the biggest candidates to become a champion in Polish league. When looking at the team roster, there are many players competing in the international arena. As we progressed through the Champions League, we knew that the teams which we would meet would raise their level. Therefore, we are aware that we will play a tougher match against a tougher opponent. As I said before, it is almost impossible for European teams to win in front of the audience who came to Ankara."
Head Coach Halkbank ANKARA
Benjamin Toniutti"Halkbank Ankara don't seem to have lost a single home game this season at their hall. This is a top team, made up of many great individuals. Nimir Abdel-Aziz, Micah Ma'a, Thomas Jaeschke, Nicolas Bruno, Yiğit Gülmezoğlu - these are players with great serves. So we have to be ready, patient, play smart and take our opportunities as they come. It's hard to make any comparisons because we're not familiar with the Turkish league, but we know Halkbank players, some of the best in the world.”
Captain and setter JASTRZEBSKI Wegiel
Rafał Szymura"We remain calm, but there is also full focus and knowledge of what awaits us and what we are playing for. We are motivated, we want to win this match in Ankara, come back to our hall, do the same in the second match to be in the final, because last year we failed. So we have another chance and I think that we will all want to use it”.
