Italy - 3

Croatia - 0

THE MODERATOR: Captain, how pleased are you with a 3-Love win at the beginning of this tough group?

CAPTAIN VOLANDRI: Yeah, I'm unbelievable happy. I didn't expect three straight points. We wanted to take our revenge with Croatia. We lost last year against them.

We knew that we couldn't be perfect today, but we had to put a lot of heart, and that how it goes. I have to say thanks to these unbelievable players. They played three unbelievable matches, and I'm really proud of them.

THE MODERATOR: And I guess thanks to the people, as well?

CAPTAIN VOLANDRI: Yeah, 9,000, I guess. It was unbelievable. Even after the 2-0, they hold there. Amazing.
