    Goal for Team Finland!


    The Smolenak penalty could have just decided the match! After the Finns won the face off, Kovar was able to stopp the first shot but the rebound was used by JORI LEHTERÄ to make the comback perfect and to make it 3-2 Finland!

    Assisted by Jonas Enlund.

    Goal for Team Finland!


    A one-timer by Sami Lepistö from the blue line after several fast passes by the Fins went into the right top corner – the referees then were using the video review to determine if another forward touched the puck and if yes if a high stick was involved! And really MIKA PYÖRÄLÄ just got his stick in between to deflect the shot and his stick was just at the same height as the crossbar! The Fins score the 2-2 early in the third period!

    Assisted by Sami Lepistö.

    Goal for Team Finland!


    A break away cuts the Finnish deficit to the half! After a long pass towards the Czech blue line PETRI KONTIOLA was through alone, deked out Kovar to the right and finnished the job into the wide open net to make it 1-2! What a nice goal!

    Goal for Team Czech Republic!

    The Czechs do it again in power play! After Hovinen allowed a rebound following a shot was deflected from short distance, JAN KOVAR had the easiest job in the world and made it 2-0 from just one metre distance with the wide open net in front of him!
     
    13:40
    Goal for Team Czech Republic!

    With their first power play of the game the Czechs score the surprising but not undeserved 1-0 lead against Finland! The hosts failed to get the puck out of their own zone and after a nice cross-pass it was JAKUB PETRUZALEK whose one-timer from within the slot found its way into the left bottom corner! No chance at all for Hovinen to stop that shot!

    Assisted by Zdenek Kutlak.
