    Just now it's from me everything. I hope, that you will find some time at 6 pm, when there in Small hall are playing Cayman Islands and Haiti. (15:53:13)
     
    The third period looked almost the same as previous two. One team scored a goal, the second one qiuckly answered. France had a little more hapiness in the end, so they took a win in their first match in this championship. Next time play France tomorrow with Bermuda. Britain also fighted till the end. They would play tomorrow with Lebanon.
     
    Best players:

    Norbert Abramov (FRA) – Callum Mort (GBR)
