    00:01
    Game started.
     
    01:38
    Michal Prucha tried to surprise Brdecka after his quick move from behind the net. However, defensemen sent the ball away.
     
    02:59
    Vlasim is still in the offensive zone, but no other good shots are coming.
     
    04:06
    Very good play from Jaroslav Martinusik. Skalica forward grabbed the ball between the circles, but his shot was blocked.
     
    04:40
    And now Koninek with Rampacek made fuss in Straka's goal crease, but none of them managed to score.
     
    06:25
    Petrovic ran through two opponents and was in good position to shoot. But it went wide.
     
    07:25
    Jan Nydl (Vlasim) – minor penalty for interference. Skalica can confirm its active play in last minutes.
     
    08:37
    Slovak combination isn't good and Vlasim sends the ball away.
     
    09:22
    But now a great attack by Skalica. Michal Straka must have saved a shot by Radoslav Smetana from three meters.
     
    09:25
    Vlasim full strength.
     
    10:38
    The Czech team is now in pressure.
     
    11:31
    Brdecka didn't catch the ball after a turnaround at his right post. His defensemen shot it away.
     
    12:51
    The ball is somewhere on the bench. Skalica has problems with its opponent now.
     
    13:41
    Easy save for Michal Straka after an attempt from the side.
     
    14:33
    Radoslav Petrovic got onto breakaway, but his shot was very weak and ended on Straka's pads.
     
    15:00
    1st period finished.
     
    No goals here in first 15 minutes. It's been an even game so far, Skalica got a bit momentum after its power-play.
     
    15:01
    Start of 2nd period.
     
    15:37
    Ondrej Ivanek (Skalica) – minor penalty for interference.
     
    16:25
    Pavel Dusek's pass was very bad and Skalica sent the ball outside of the znoe.
     
    17:04
    Jan Streska (Vlasim) – minor penalty for cross checking. We are going to play some four on four.
     
    17:32
    Tomas Wrobel tried luck on the right side, but was alone and blocked.
     
    17:37
    Skalica plays at full strength and is on power play.
     
    19:04
    Vlasim is also at full strength. The Czechs played this penalty kill very good.
     
    19:47
    3 on 1 for Vlasim. Jozef Brdecka made a great save in Hasek style and Marian Juracek didn't manage to score!
     
    20:16
    Both teams play really good in their defense zones, but Vlasim is very active right now.
     
    20:36
    Goal for Vlasim!
    Ten minutes to go and finally the score has changed! Another breakaway situation by Vlasim and LIBOR TOPOLANEK tried to pass, but unlucky Skalica player deflected the ball behind his goalie – 0-1! No assist.
     
    21:46
    Jozef Brdecka has still some work.
     
    22:41
    Vlasim isn't satisfied and Topolanek's line wants to score another.
     
    23:31
    Ondrej Kieler made a huge move, but shot wide and Sindelar's rebound was from very sharp angle.
     
    24:15
    Hand pass by Vlasim in the neutral zone.
     
    24:59
    Michal Straka ran from his crease to stop the ball earlier than Krajsa could grab it and shoot.
     
    25:34
    Marian Juracek was the one who tried it from the left side. Brdecka saves easily.
     
    25:46
    Juraj Koninek in a breakaway was very close to tie the score!
     
    25:46
    But Koninek was fouled. Jan Nydl (Vlasim) – minor penalty for slashing. Big opportunity for Skalica!
     
    26:31
    Some Skalica player remained lying on the ground, but no second penalty for Vlasim is coming.
     
    26:55
    Vlasim sends it away.
     
    27:20
    Play is whistled down. Straka had one save after a lazy shot by Skalica defenseman.
     
    27:20
    Time-out for Skalica!
     
    27:20
    Skalica on power play 6 on 4!
     
    27:46
    Vlasim plays at full strength.
     
    28:00
    Skalica has the ball in its own zone.
     
    28:13
    Goal for Vlasim!
    What a goal! I guess this game is over. MICHAL PRUCHA targets the empty net from the corner of his zone – 0-2! No assist.
     
    28:54
    Skalica still tries to do something with the score, but it isn't good at all.
     
    29:20
    Skalica in six players again!
     
    29:29
    Goal for Vlasim!
    Now it is over. This time TOMAS HORAK scored to the empty net from five meters and Vlasim goes to the final! No assist.
     
    30:00
    Game over.
     
    As expected, this game wasn't so offensive. However, Vlasim scored three in the second period and got a deserved victory. The Czech team will play against Oberwil for gold medals! Best players of the game:

    Skalica – Jozef Brdecka
    Vlasim – Libor Topolanek (14:38:34)
