    Goran Jovanovic, Slovenia coach:

    "I think we played a good game, we knew that Iceland has a good team and after we made a few changes on our team in the beginning of the game we did really well. We played well in defense in the second half and stopped Helena Sverrisdottir, but she's a very good player."

    Ágúst Björgvinsson, Iceland coach:

    "We lost to a good team tonight and my players did a good job. We lost the rebounds and it is difficult if you are always giving away rebounds. It is never fun to lose but we are improving and that is the most important thing. I´m very proud of my girls, everytime Slovenia looked like pulling away we'd come back and cut the deficit but in the fourth quarter they led by 11 points and we couldn´t get closer than that."
