Paula Weishoff, Head Coach of USA
“Game one was very good for us and we played point by point with them. Then they started to play a very fast game and we allowed them to get into their rhythm. Once this happened the game was over. They took the game to a different level and we couldn’t stay with them. It was good match for China.â€
Qi Lixia, Head Coach of China
“USA didn’t play as we expected. It is a better team than what they showed today. They seemed to be affected by something.â€
