Recap

Historic moment for New Zealand’s fistball women: They celebrate their first victory at a world championship against Belgium with a good performance in all positions, Belgium has no chance.

Melanie Vannoort (NZL): It’s very exciting to have won our first match and we got a lot of good combos which is exciting. It was such a good opportunity and we are looking forward to the next though competition.

Fauve Thys (BEL): We managed to score five times in this game and we are really happy about it. This was the first game with many back-and-forths. In many of the previous games this was not the case. In this game we could also attack a lot more.
