         [Diani 15, Dali 20, Le Sommer 23, 70]

NB: the matches on 6 Aug were the only ones from the "New Zealand" half of the schedule
    (groups A, C, E, G and the knock-out matches between the winners and runners-up of
    those groups) to be played in Australia, implying the Netherlands and Sweden had to
    change countries twice between the group stage and the quarterfinals; the rationale
    behind this (if any) is unclear.
