Script:

SOUNDBITE: (German) Silvia Neid, Germany coach (on being ready for the quarterfinal)

"We feel very good. We have recovered entirely since the last game. We are in very good physical condition and we can continue our progress in this tournament tomorrow with a strong performance."

SOUNDBITE: (German) Silvia Neid, Germany coach (on France being one of the newer success stories in the women's game)

"I think that the French team is a very good team, a side that has been working very hard for a very long time to get good results. They have great coaches and the youth teams all play excellent football. I think that France feels that it's their turn to win a big title and they are really all very skilful. We know it will be hard work for us tomorrow."
