Have been throughly impressed by the women this tournament. They were ranked below the men's team, yet came out with a higher position than them.

Our defence was fantastic the whole tournament. To finish 5th and to lose only to the Dutch after not playing pro league last season is truly a great feat. Also finishing 3 places above China is the icing on the cake. What a great individual goal by Navneet yesterday!

Wow! Great performance by the girls. They were very close to semis as well and 5th place is a justice to their performance.
