[Title] => Towering defense powers Cuba over Netherlands
[Summary] => Dragged into a five-setter by a tough Netherlands side, fancied Cuba went to its vaunted net defense when its offense began to sputter as it escaped with a 25-20, 19-25, 22-25, 25-22, 15-13 victory yesterday in the 2005 FIVB World Grand Prix at the Philsports Arena.
"We didnt play the way we used to," said Cuba coach Felipe Calderon, who steered the team to a bronze medal finish in the 2004 Athens Olympics, through an interpreter. "But we were playing better defense in the last two sets, thats the reason we won."
