Coaches´ Quotes

Tobias Strahm (SUI): "In the end, it’s the result we were hoping for. Of course, this was a different kind of opponent compared to, say, Czechia or Canada. Being the favourite is a different challenge. But this is how we’d like things to go more often."

Joe Bradley (GBR): "I think we didn’t start badly at all, but then we conceded some unnecessary goals, which is a shame—it was too late to get back into the game."
