i chose the players who made a difference to their teams, who brought something extra. i don't have any german defenders, because i feel that no one stood out, not even annike krahn, who looked erratic at times.

and with this, as i promised, i bring a close to this chapter. it has been a great tournament. too bad louisa necib and her france couldn't see off holland.

business as usual from now on.
