Italy had a slow start, as well as Greece. The Italians took an early 1:0 lead, but Slovakia equalized. Fourteen seconds before the end of the fourth Claudia Marletta found the net for 2:1 and Italy dominated after the first break. The Slovaks fought as they could, but Italy recorded an easy win.

Every goal against the big ones is a success for Slovakia, so they left the pool with smiles, especially because of a consolation goal 15 seconds before the end.

Italy and Greece secured the appearance at the Olympic qualification tournament. The encounter between Slovakia and France for the 7th place will be also a battle for the last remaining place at the qualification tournament.
