Post match comments by German Team Coach

Coach Helmut Horsch, who was speaking for Germany's Head Coach Tina Theune-Meyer, said after the match that today the Americans were better in every position. "They were superior on the ball and in set plays. Today the U.S. team was at a higher level than all the other teams in our group. It is a shame that we did not finish our chances against Finland so that we would be playing for third place, because now we will be playing for fifth place."
