    Oh, it is fantastic! Unbelievable dramatic end of this famous ball hockey game bring Czech team to the final game! Both teams in the last minute must score a goal and Czechs were happier. Sadness for USA, for Slovakia. Czech team will play on Saturday against Canada in the final, Slovakia against USA in the bronze medal game. See you tomorrow. (16:53:08)
     
    45:00
    Third period finished.
     
    44:51
    Timeout for the US.
     
    44:50
    Goal for Team Czech Republic!
    How ball hockey could be a nice sport!!! Slovaks are sad on the tribune, they lost their advantage only ten seconds before the end! Americans must score a goal, they put all in to attack, two Czechs were alone in front of Jones and DANKO DEVERI scored his most famous goal of his career. Assisted by Ladislav Bittner.
     
    44:28
    Shot from Carter, saved by Mroviec. Americans control that game. Czech coaches take time-out.
     
    44:02
    Bittner did not catch the pass, last minute of Czech hopes.
     
    42:57
    Nice shot from Zubik, Mroviec made a huge save. Only two minutes and three seconds left.
     
    42:40
    Czechs don´t have quality in their attacks. Time is running amazingly fast.
     
    41:41
    Now we see American icing. Shortly before had a nice scoring chance Deveri but instead of shot, he tried to pass the ball to Krejčík. Young czech forward missed.
     
    41:01
    Deveri did not catch a long pass, it is icing and the game is moving in front of Mroviec.
     
    40:00
    Goal for Team USA!
    That is catastrophic scenario for Czech team! JONATHAN RUIZ had plenty of space to his breakaway and he did it well. Assisted by: Erik Zimmermann. Slovaks now reaches the final! It is amazing.
     
    39:30
    The game is going to its end, Czechs are concentrating mostly on defense.
     
    38:27
    Uncertain save made by Mroviec, who ran out of his net and hit for-checking american forward. Nothing happened to his team.
     
    37:36
    The game is now totally nervous. There are more and more mistakes on both sides. Face-off in front of Jones.
     
    36:36
    Teams will play at the same strenght. Zvonek made an unnecessary foul and gets two minutes for that.
     
    36:18
    There´ll be a rest for the home team. Crossey gets a minor penalty for cross-checking.
     
    35:27
    Time is running, Czechs are still keeping good score 3:3. But one goal could change everything.
     
    34:36
    Czechs defense looks embarassed. Another mistake and the backhand chance for Brenner, Mroviec made an easy save.
     
    33:57
    Americans hold the ball on their sticks, Holman´s shot went close.
     
    32:35
    Good attack from the Czech team, Jones put the ball into his glove after Vostrčil´s breakaway.
