    59:59
    Brutal check by Nikolai Stasenko (Belarus) into the face of Germany's Yasin Ehliz whom he rammed into the boards... completely unnecessary to take such a penalty! Stasenko gets 5+20 for boarding.
     
    57:04
    The Belarussians win the puck inside the German third and suddenly Yevgeny Kovyrshin appears close to the right circle but isn't able to beat Zepp!
     
    51:49
    Oleg Yavenko (Belarus) gets two minutes for roughing. If Germany want a chance for a comeback in this game, they better use this power play!
     
    49:53
    Goal for Team Belarus!

    MIKHAIL GRABOVSKI scores the 5-2 with his second goal of the night! After receiving a pass at the German blue line he was through alone with a break away and deked out Zepp to the right!

    Assisted by Sergei Kostitsyn.
     
    44:05
    Goal for Team Belarus!

    Is this already the decision? GEOFF PLATT receives the puck close to the right circle, turns around twice, skates a bit towards the net and fires a blast into the right top corner – from the upper part of the post the puck is deflected into the back of the net! 4-2 Belarus!

    Assistedby Nikolai Stasenko and Andrei Stas.
     
    42:55
    Goal for Team Belarus!

    A fast passing combination and a mistake by German goalei Zepp lead to the 3-2 lead for Belarus! First Alexei Kalyuzhny found Sergei Kostitsyn inside the slot with a pass from the left wing and then Zepp failed to stopp the following one-timer which was used by MIKHAIL GRABOVSKI who took the rebound to score from just in front of the goalie crease!

    Assisted by Alexei Kalyuzhny and Sergei Kostitsyn.
     
    39:53
    Belarus almost even with the lead in the second period but after a long pass towards the right wing Andrei Kostitsyn isn't able to place his scoring attempt well enough to surprise Rob Zepp.
     
    36:16
    Tobias Rieder with a pass from behind the net for Leon Draisaitl who waits at the right post but Lalande is in between to block the shot from short distance!
     
    34:23
    Goal for Team Belarus!

    Frank Mauer with a pass from behind the Belarus net towards the blue line and the German defender Constantin Braun fails to hit the puck during a one-timer attempt which gives Belarus the 2-on-1 break away opportunity, finished successfully by ALEXEI UGAROV after a pass by Andrei Stepanov to the right just in front of the goalie crease! Belarus make it 2-2 after a two-goal deficit!

    Assisted by Andrei Stepanov.
     
    29:28
    German youngster Leon Draisaitl is stopped unfair by his opponent Dmitri Korobov who gets two minutes for tripping. Germany will have their first power play of the game.
     
    27:27
    3-on-1 attack for Team Germany but Felix Schütz tries it himself with a deke against Lalande who stops him in the very last moment! Big save!
     
    23:18
    Big opportunity on the other side! Marcel Noebels tries to deke out Kevin Lalande who entered the game for Koval after the first period and gives the puck then to the left where Leon Draisaitl waits close to the goalie crease but fails to deflect the puck on target!
     
    20:23
    Just after the start of the middle period Belarus have the big opportunity for the equalizer! A pass from the left circle by Alexei Kalyuzhny finds Sergei Kostitsyn whose one-timer hits the upper part of the right goal post of the German goal! Zepp would have been chanceless!
     
    17:14
    Alexei Ugarov finds Yevgeni Kovyrshin inside the slot but Kovyrshin, left alone by the German defense, misses the left top corner by inches!
     
    15:27
    Goal for Team Belarus!

    With the first power play of the game Team Belarus cuts the deficit by the half! After a pass from the right circle it is ANDREI STEPANOV whose one-timer from within the slot finds its way past the chanceless Rob Zepp!

    Assisted by Mikhail Grabovski and Alexei Kalyuzhny.
     
    15:06
    Justin Krueger (Germany) gets two minutes for hooking.
     
    11:52
    Goal for Team Germany!


    Nice passing combination by three German players and the puck comes to ALEXANDER BARTA who waits inside the slot, dekes out Koval and scores the 2-0 into the wide open net with his first goal of the tournament – as previously in this game already Kai Hospelt.

    Assisted by Felix Schütz and Frank Mauer.
     
    08:04
    Goal for Team Germany!


    KAI HOSPELT receives a long pass on the right wing, tries to force his way through two defenders and then his shot just after crossing the blue line into the Belarussian third is deflected by one of his opponents and goes over the head of Koval into the wide open net! What a strange goal – Germany take the surprising 1-0 lead!

    Without assist.
