TEHRAN (Tasnim) Iranian national volleyball team head coach Slobodan Kovac said that the US is the best volleyball team in the world.
Iran has been scheduled to play USA in week 6 of the FIVB Volleyball World League in Tehrans Azadi Stadium, which seats close to 12,000, is expected to be full to capacity.
First of all, I am happy there are no limitations in sport and countries like Iran and USA can meet together, Kovac said in the pre-match news conference.
USA is the best current team in the world but we play in home and want to show a good performance in front of 12,000 spectators, the Serbian coach added.
Those who think we must defeat USA have no a good understanding of volleyball but we will do our best to beat them, he said.
