TEHRAN (Tasnim) – Iran volleyball team captain Saeid Marouf is happy for the win against Canada in the 2021 Volleyball Nations League (VNL) on Thursday.
Vladimir Alekno’s team defeated Canada 3-1 (22-25, 25-22, 25-22, 25-22) on Week 2 of VNL.
“It was my first game at the VNL today, so I am happy that I started with a victory,” Marouf said in the post-match news conference.
“It's a long and tough tournament, but now we are happy that we beat Canada, because we are in the same pool at the Olympic Games, so it was important for us,” he added.
