After the match, the head coach Samira Hurem stated:

“The Russians showed that they were above us with their fitness, quality and play. We still do not have players who can be a good opponent to such teams. They are better and I congratulate them. We did not make any changes in the game even with our substitutions. We must continue to build a team, and that is the process. Now we are waiting for a match against England and we must not give them space. We will try to confront them better than against Russia today.”
