After the game, New York head coach Sandy Brondello took officials to task over foul disparity. Minnesota shot 20 free throws, while New York shot nine. The Liberty were called for 14 fouls and the Lynx were called for nine.

"If (we) are getting hit, it's a bloody foul," Brondello said, via ESPN.

Brondello added she believed her team was getting called for "ticky-tack" fouls.

"All we want is fair, OK. So if we are getting hit, that's a foul. You know, I'm one of the nicest bloody coaches in this league, but this pisses me off. Just be fair," she said.
