Kovac Optimistic about Defeating Brazil
TEHRAN (Tasnim) - Iran national volleyball team coach Slobodan Kovac said his team has a chance to defeat Brazil in the fourth week of the Intercontinental Round of the FIVB World League.
Iran lost to Brazil 3-2 last week in Pool A and defeated the team in straight sets 3-0 two days later in Sao Paulo.
Iran will play Brazil on Friday and Sunday, June 13 and 15, at the Azadi Sports Complex in Tehran.
"Everyone knows Brazil very well and there is no need to talk about the capabilities of this team. However Iran is in a good shape and I hope to get a good result in both games against Brazil," Slobodan Kovac said in the pre-match news conference.
"Iran is in Pool A together with powerful teams and emotionally it is difficult to forget the last win," the Serbian head coach added.
