Alas, a group featuring France and the USA was too tough to handle. As a result, the pack led by Satoransky and Vesely was brought down by superior opponents, since the French and the Americans outscored them by as many as 55 points combined.
However, coach Ronen Ginzburg appeared anything but bitter in his post-game quotes following the heavy defeat to Team USA.
"In the end, we finished the summer by surprising everybody - including ourselves - that we are in the Olympic Games after what we did in Canada.
