USA Coach John Speraw: "We got beat by a better volleyball team"

USA coach John Speraw: "Two night ago, I thought that the environment and play in this gym with these fans affected the way we played the game. Tonight, Iran affected the way we played. We got beat by a better volleyball team by significant margin. They outplayed us in every facet of the game: block, defense, passing, serving, and offense. So there is only one thing we can do, and that is to learn from this volleyball match to hope that we can improve. We are a team and have some physical gifts, some big players who can jump high and beat the ball, but we have to play the entire game much better if we hope to be as a team as well-coached and skilled as Iran."
