Guillermo Martinez thanked for the good preparation of organizing this sprorts event by Tianjin firstly. He said,"after 2 years Beijing 2008 Olympic Games will be held. At that time women's and men's water polo can be appreciated.In Sydney olympic games and Athens Olympic games, water polo had been popularized,gaining many fans of water polo.China is a very important nation and have a great influnce in the whole world. So in my opinion 2008 Olympic Games can be held successfully and water polo can be more popular at that time. I hope till Beijing 2008 Olympic Games, Chinese water polo team can be improved.Till now, group matches of 14th FINA Women's Water Polo World Cup finished. We are very satisfied with the arrangement made by the organizing committee.In this water polo world cup, Chinese girls gave spectators an excellent performances. They improved themselves fast by participating in many international water polo events. I guaranteed that if Chinese team can take participation in 60 international water polo events in these two years they will played more fantasticly in Beijing 2008 Olympic Games."As for the 1/4 matches and the semi-final matches,Guillermo Martinez considered that the competition will be more intense because they levelled closely.

And then Li Xiangdong commented on the performance of Chinese team. He said'"After participating in the preliminary round and semi-final matches of Wolrd Water Cup League, Chinese team accumulated more experience. So they played more excellent in the 14th FINA Women's Wwater Polo World Cup in Tianjin. In the match with Greece, we have the chance to win the game.In 3rd quarter, China scored 1 goal, leaving no chance to Greece in this quarter. But Chinese girls lost this game at last because of experience shorter.I think if chinese team can take more international water polo events, they will be more excellent in the Beijing 2008 Olympic Games."
