Mariana Rodriguez, Captain of Costa Rica: “Sometimes we have the
mentality that the next game is an easy one and don’t take care
of the technical part, we are too relaxed and decrease in our
intensity. We have talked about it. The emotional part affected
us in this match and we will try to correct that in the matches
of tomorrow and Sunday.”
Juel Lewis, Captain of Belize: “I think we are a better team and
have to stand up and leave this one in the past. We need to
improve the preparation and give the best of ourselves. In the
second set we tried to increase our attitude, but it was really
complicated.” |
