Estonia player Laina Mesila: "We struggled to adjust to the conditions, but this is not an excuse for us. Macedonia played well in the decisive minutes".

Macedonia coach Vidoja Sekuloski: " I would like to congratulate my girls for the win, they deserve it. We knew that the game was going to be tough, but we stuck to it, and won it at the end. I am a little bit concerned about the injury of Aneta Jovanoska, which could be the problem for us as the campaign moves on."
