Bulgaria - Russia (Highlights)

Great match between Bulgaria and Russian in the quarter-final of The Olympics 2008. MVP of match was Maxim Mikhaylov (he scored 17 points). The best scorer in Bulgaria team was Matey Kaziyski with 24 points. On the press conference Alekno said: "We've got 12 players who are all ready to play at any moment of the game. So that's our advantage. It just depends on whether my substitutions during the game make our play stronger or not". On decisions made by the referee, coach Martin Stoev said: "Unfortunately, as my captain has said, the three mistakes (made by the referee) were against us and they weren't good for us, especially the mistakes in the second set which was an important set for us. We could have won this game but those three mistakes helped the Russians.". Also added: "At the end of each set the Russians were playing better than us. But I will still thank all my players for their efforts in the Olympic Games and for fighting to the very end."
