Contrary, Team Latvia couldn´t be satisfied with a thing. Maybe with a goal but that is all. Honestly, Latvians should improve their performance or this championship will turn into nightmare.
Thanks for watching and have a nice rest of the day! (21:26:10)
In my opinion, this game is decided. A shot from the blue line by MATT HUNWICK ended behind Masalskis. Latvian goalie did not have a clear view and could not react to. Assisted by Stastny.
Masalskis showed a great reflex after a projectile from the blue line by Johnson, Stapleton tipped the puck in with his leg but against BOBBY BUTLER´s quick rebound was short. A power-play goal for Team USA! Assisted by Stapleton, Johnson.
