almost the most beautiful scéanrio

" for the leader of the Blues Earvin Ngapeth passed through all the emotions at the Tokyo Games.

Pride. I'm super happy, because we went through all the emotions in this tournament: eliminated, not eliminated ... We did not know. To achieve more with this group ... For some, we've been playing together for 15 years, even more, so it's super beautiful. It has always been a dream, it was far away, but we talked about it together when we were at CN (French national volleyball center, editor's note), when we were cadets. I don't think we even realize it yet (...) It's the most beautiful scenario that could happen to us, well almost the most beautiful. It will be Laurent's last and it's an Olympic final. It's even bigger. It should be approached like the last matches. We must not put false pressure on ourselves and try to forget what is at stake even if it is hard.You have to be a bunch of friends who play volleyball and have fun.
