Karolina Piotrowska, 7 May 2012
Alojzy Świderek (coach of the polish national team): - I would like to congratulate Turkey the victory and historical promotion to the Olympic Games tournament. I am very sorry the team did not manage to deal with the pressure of the game. It has not been a nice match, but so important matches are usually like that. Once again I would like to express my sincere congratulations and wishes of good luck in London.
Marco Motta (coach of the national team of Turkey): - The success did not come easily. Each member of the team, national federation and the fans have their part in the success. We managed to do it step by step. Our dreams about the first Olympic Games tournament came true. I dedicate this success to my colleagues with whom I have been working for quite a long time now. Despite the financial problems they do their best to perform work as good as possible. No one has ever complained about anything. We create an excellent team.
Naslihan Darnel (coach of the national team of Turkey): - We are so happy. Participation in the Olympic Games is a dream of every player. I would like to thank everyone, especially the fans, who did not stop to support us during the whole tournament. I did not expect the victory would be so easy. Poland is a very strong team and a well organized one. However, we were the ones who played better today.
