Xingzhi Wang (Team China coach): I am very satisfied with the final result. In the last hame against Finnish girls we lost 1:12 and today only 1:5. We played very good game. We made a big step forward in this tournament.

Anna Perttilä (Team Finland coach): It was pur last game in this tournament and I am glad that we closed our performance here with victory. But we can´t be satisfied with the final 7th place. We wanted to play in-line hockey as French do but went badly. We have to prepare better ourselves to the next tournament.
