Hubert Henno, head coach of TOURS VB: "It's a pity that we play against two the best European teams behind closed doors, it was an opportunity to see the best players in the world play in Grenon Arena. The teams of Lube and Perugia are on a very high level, so it's a pleasure to play against them and to challenge them."

Osmany Juantorena, player of Cucine Lube CIVITANOVA: "In the yesterday’s match against Perugia we scored a very important victory performing a great volleyball, and in the second match against TOURS we therefore aim to confirm ourselves. We don't know the French team very well, so it will be essential to approach the match in the right way, focusing exclusively on what we have to do in our part of the court".
