To win this trophy was hard work. We are humble, sometimes we lose, sometimes we win. It was not obvious that Norway would win this game, as Denmark have good players and good coaches; we have big respect for them.

As always, Norway are deserved champions, but I am also proud of my team. After 41 minutes we were ahead by four goals and created more chances, but Katrine Lunde showed her great experience. 18 years ago, Denmark played their last final, and already then Lunde was a key to our defeat. Now we are sad that we did not win, but from tomorrow we can raise our heads.

It is really amazing. The match was really tough. (Personal records) don't mean too much, but I am really happy because we are winning, and that was really important today.

We were not as strict in our defence as we were in the first 55 minutes. Norway have the routine and I think we got a bit overwhelmed by that. I am really disappointed because we were really close and we made an incredible tournament.

Everything went wrong for us, from the beginning of the game. We lost balls we usually don't. I think today we missed too many things to reach the third place. Of course, I am very disappointed but we couldn't expect more with this way of playing.
