This is what the players said: Thijs Ter Horst (NED): After the first two sets they started to put more pressure on us, and from our side we started to make some mistakes that were unnecessary. I think we wanted to close the game too quickly, instead of just playing our game. That s why we made a few too many mistakes. We are here at the VNL for the first time. In addition a few guys have never played in the national team before, so it s an amazing start for their international career. We have to enjoy, learn and keep going. Ran Takahashi (JPN): The first two sets were very difficult for us, also mentally. However, what we did in the next three sets was showing in the game what we have worked on duri
