Micah Ma'a, USA player: "This crowd is crazy!! This is a different scenario for us, so we try to learn how to win in a tough environment and against a great team as Belgium. I'm glad we came up with the victory. This is our second tie break and I think we have to get stronger, we fall into holes and we have to work to stay strong. Personally, I'm trying to do as much as I can for this team whether is serving, hitting or setting. I'm fond to play with these guys, they make my job really easy and I have to thank them."
