The remake of the same stage match, recently played at the adult World championship in Rome, came to an end with the same outcome – victory of water polo players of the Netherlands. But the Dutch girls got it much easier, than their senior compatriots in Rome. Perhaps, the chance «to return to the game» after the failed beginning of the second quarter (a game segment – 0:4) was missed by the national team of New Zealand, when its player Alexandra Boyd did not carry out a penalty kick at the score - 4:7.

     Ilse SINDORF, head coach of the Netherlands: - We did what we had to do in this game - had right attacks, good defence, made not a lot of mistakes. As for the tomorrow's quarterfinal our forces are approximately equal with the Notational team of Canada. Therefore the match should be interesting.

     Frazer BICKLEY, head coach of New Zealand: - Certainly, we wanted to have revenge for defeat of the female national team in Rome, but didn’t manage. We had some chances in this meeting as the competitors made some mistakes as well, but, unfortunately, we could not make them true.

     NEW ZEALAND: Hutchinson, Howard (1), Perry, Kyrke-Smith, Boyd, Theelen (1), Burns, Lomax (1), Lewis, Faulconbridge, Bowry (2), Pye, Mather.

     NETHERLANDS: Slobbe, Dongelmans, Stomphorst (3), van der Sloot (1), Genee (1), Klaassen (2), Remers, Nijhuis (2), Smits (1), Sevenich (2), Mensink (1), Geserick (1), Brouwer.
