The head coach of VC Neftochimic 2010, Ivan Stanev, told the official club website that he was pleased with the motivation of his chosen players after the 3:0 triumph over Greek Kifisia in the Challenge Cup on Wednesday evening in front of nearly 1400 people in Arena Burgas.

"I am happy that we started in the best possible way in front of our most loyal fans. I thank every single person who was in Arena Burgas," Stanev began. "I am pleased with the motivation with which we started the match. We continue to be stable in reception, which gives the setter Dobromir Dimitrov the freedom to execute everything we had prepared tactically," added the coach of the 6-time Bulgarian champions.
