Game Denmark developed their rhythm early, and their accurate passing and speed left the U.S. players in their tracks for most of the match. The U.S. goalie in the first half looked unsure of herself , and was slow to come off her line. The second goal by Denmark was solely the result of an errant back pass.
Post match quotes Mia Hamm We really love playing here. To be able to stop through such an amazing facility, I wish we could have given them a better result. That credit goes to Denmark, they played a phenomenal game and put their chances away.
Abby Wambach Mia has been a role model for me. She has shown me how to play this game. She has shown me the little things that you really can¹t be taught unless you are on the field and see the same thing. I feel legitimately like the luckiest person in the world to be able to have had this opportunity to play with her for the past two and a half years.
Captain Julie Foudy They are a good team. Give them a lot of credit. They were very good. We knew they were good. We thought we¹d won the Olympics when we tied them in the last second of the last game in New York, so we knew it was going to be a tough game tonight. But (the loss) doesn¹t diminish our year or anything we have done together. If anything, it is good to remind us that the world is catching up. It makes our achievement that much more sweet.
