    Slovaks played better in the second half but couldn't get to the French who built a solid lead from the beginning. So the French go into the finals and will get the chance to repeat winning the title again. (17:19:37)
     
    40:00
    Game over.
     
    39:13
    Now they'll have a major opportunity as Kevin Neau (FRA) got called for slashing.
     
    39:03
    Slovaks will try treir luck without the goalie.
     
    38:11
    Goal for Team Slovakia!
    The Slovaks reduce the score, but it seems to be a bit too late. PETER SULEK got to the rebound in the slot first and put it through the five-hole.

    Assist: Rudolf Tomanek.
     
    36:04
    A shot with severe angle from the corner by Slovakia ends up safe in hands of Voyneau.
     
    35:19
    Timeout France.
     
    35:19
    Frederic Guiheux gets first to the rebounded puck off the boards, but Kohut makes the pad deflection to keep the puck away.
     
    34:01
    Hostovecky dashes into the zone, shoots low, but Voyneau makes the pad save.
     
    33:04
    Another fine shot from the French, this time it's Lionel Reigner but hits the post.
     
    32:07
    Another beautiful save by Vladimir Kohut on Paul Fayault. The French had practically the empty net before himself but couldn't send the puck in as the glove of the Slovak goalie gets in the way.
     
    31:51
    Slovaks try to kill the powerplay with a break, but can't beat Voyneau.
     
    31:16
    Andrej Hostovecky (SVK) gets called for hooking.
     
    30:11
    Goal for Team France!
    LAURENT JOHAIS makes it a 5-goal difference between the two making Slovaks hopes reduce. A fine backhander from the right side.

    Assist: Lionel Reigner.
     
    28:52
    Goal for Team France!
    This is a huge goal for them, it could bring the game to a close. BENJAMIN DESROCHES can celebrate his hattrick, as he found a neat spot on the break to send a hard shot.

    Assist: Laurent Spinetti.
     
    27:58
    The Slovaks play way better than in the first 20 minutes, they're all pretty equal in the rink.
     
    26:49
    The French realize they'll have to close down more when on offense, their long-ranged shots aren't as successful as during the first half.
     
    25:43
    The French shot was going to miss the net probably, but still Kohut caught it with the glove and stopped the clock.
     
    24:57
    Milan Novosedlik tries his luck from long range, Voyneau makes the save and holds on.
     
    23:49
    Goal for Team France!
    Again the difference between the two is two goals. Slovaks left way too much space in the defensive zone for the French – BENJAMIN DESROCHES sends the puck behind Kohut's back.

    Assists: Francois Gleise, Paul Fayault.
