Hats off to Italy, says USA's Akinradewo

Osaka, Japan, October 11, 2018 - USA No. 16 Foluke Akinradewo: I think this is obviously a very disappointing loss for us. We do not want to go into a match and allow another team to dictate our destiny. Hats off to Italy. I think they played really disciplined block defence. Italy played well and I think we definitely did not play our best today.
