Kaliningrad, Russia, August 4, 2019 - Russia came back from two sets down against Korea to claim a berth at the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games in Kaliningrad on Sunday. Evgenia Startseva, captain of Russia team: "It was not a good game, but we were able to show our character. The turning point in the third set changed the course of the game. And in the fifth set, two crazy defenses helped us. The girls are fighters. Through such tipping points, important games are won. We are very happy!! New starts are ahead - we will now prepare for the European Championship and the World Cup." Vadim Pankov, head coach of Russia team: "There was nowhere to retreat. Everything was practically decided and we took a chance. We took the risk of an attack. This happens, probably, once in a lifetime. This luck allowed us to gain a ticket to Tokyo. I am very happy. Today was a fairy tale with a happy ending. And I want to thank the fans, and, of course, my team and our country for the fact that we got to the Olympic Games. Now let's move on."
