after the tie-break with Egypt 3-2 (25-22, 26-24, 23-25, 20-25, 15-11). It was
a long match full of twists. Nobody has expected that kind of clash. "In this
game we were completely surprised with the Egyptians," Teodor Salparov, libero of Bulgaria national team, said after the match. "There were moments when we made
many serious faults, that we need to eliminate if we want to fight for the higher
positions in this tournament. "At this point the most important thing is
promotion to the next round. We are trying not to calculate too much ahead.
Every victory is significant for us, he assured.

determined. They played really good and used all our mistakes. We need to be
more concentrated before the next encounter," Salparov added.
