SOUNDBITE: (Spanish) Mauro Mazzotti, Spain Manager **ROUGH TRANSLATION**:
"Well, you know when you come here you want to place a minimal objective and a maximum objective. Our minimum objective was to be able to compete with these people, not to get here and have three knock outs and go home without barely playing. We showed we can play with these people. The other objective was to win games. We almost did it at half a game, but logically they are stronger than us. Well, they started to hit."
SOUNDBITE: (Spanish) Luis Sojo, Venezuela Manager **ROUGH TRANSLATION**:
"Look, if they make the change of day or night, I mean the most important thing is those of us on this side of the continent should be given more time to train as a team. I think that teamwork is very important regardless of the chemistry and the unity that exists in these gentlemen. I believe that is the most important thing, that we need more time, two games is not enough, and we are not here to give excuses but we are also here to try to resolve things that can be a positive, not for one group of teams, but for all. It should be equal for everyone."
