Crossover

Petrutytė McVicker SC Amiens, Amiens

The match finished 2–2 and Lithuania won the subsequent penalty shoot-out 6–5. However Ireland captain, Rachel Kohler, spotted that the penalty strokes were being taken in the wrong order. She was initially ignored by the match officials, but Ireland appealed and the tournament director ruled the shoot-out should be replayed the next day. However Lithuania refused to take part and withdrew from the tournament.

Simpson SC Abbevillois, Abbeville

Seventh and eighth place

SC Amiens, Amiens

Match awarded to India following Lithuania's withdrawal.

Fifth and sixth place

McVicker SC Abbevillois, Abbeville

After Ireland defeated Scotland 2–1 in this match they were initially confirmed as the final qualifier for the 2002 Women's Hockey World Cup. Before the match the Lithuania team staged a sit down protest on the pitch. Lithuania lodged a further appeal to the FIH who then ordered that Ireland, Lithuania, India and the United States take part in a second qualification tournament. Lithuania were due to play India in a seventh and eighth place play-off before they withdrew. The United States had been unable to participate in the original tournament due to the disruption of airline schedules after the 11 September attacks. However Ireland in turn appealed to the Court of Arbitration for Sport who overruled the FIH decision and finally confirmed Ireland's place in the 2002 Women's Hockey World Cup.
