In Macau (19 August 2007), The Netherlands was the best. Especially against U.S.A., the crucial game won by the Orange 3-1. As for Head Coach Avital Selinger, “We remained concentrated and worked together as a team. We did well in the first two sets. Only after the 2 sets, we encountered some problems, and the USA took advantage of it. In the 4th set, we regained our rhythm. It was a tremendous match and we won it.” The good results against Cuba (3-2) and China (3-0) were useless for U.S.A.: like Cuba, Lang Ping’s squad is out of the best five.
