Nicolas Le Goff, France center after the quarter-final victory against Romania 3-0:
«We can’t say that we accomplished our mission by reaching the semi-finals. Mission accomplished, it will be when we have a medal around our neck, the most beautiful if possible. But if we have a medal, we will necessarily be happy, we will do everything to get gold.
(In the 3rd set where France was trailing 24-21 before winning 27-25) We just said to ourselves: Guys, there are only three points difference, we are going to come back point by point. We all feel good, physically and mentally, the energy is really positive in this team. (in the group stage), we lacked a little flame, but having played Bulgaria (in the round of 16, Editor’s note) for a decisive match in front of a full house, helped us find that flame. We are all gaining strength. If we face Italy (in the semi-final on Thursday in Rome) in a full house, we will be underdogs, but it’s the kind of match that we like and where we are the best.»
