Turkey Vow to Bounce Back After GB Defeat


TURKEY’S assistant manager Nilufer Bircan vowed to bounce back after watching her side slump to a 22-13 defeat against GB on Thursday night.

The Turkish side seemed to run out of ideas against GB, and will need to lift their game if they are to bounce back with a victory over the Faroe Islands on Friday.

“The game was really hard but our goalkeeper and defence was ok,” she said. “But we had a problem with our attack and we are sorry about that.

Our goalkeeper had a finger problem last night [see separate story] but it is ok now, we have two good goalkeepers and we don’t have a problem with that now, but she will be better and tomorrow she will play again, we have a very young team.”
