Norway's superstar PATRICK THORESEN received the puck just in front of Galbraith and beat him with a backhander into the top corner! No time to react for the Danish goalie! The lead for Norway is late and lucky but not undeserved.
Assisted by Per-Age Skroder.
And the Danish pressure is rewarded by the equalizer! MADS BOEDKER recveived a perfect cross-pass at the left post and finnished the job with a flat shot that went under the pads of Haugen and into the net – 2-2 now!
Assisted by Mikkel Boedker and Mads Christensen.
Absolutely brilliant play by the Danes who now cut the Norwegian lead to the half! One of the Danes left the puck for STEFAN LASSEN whose powerful shot went into the corner past the completely surprised Haugen! The long awaited Danish goal!
Assisted by Mikkel Boedker and Mads Christensen.
After another series of passes ANDERS BASTIANSEN tried it from the blue line and his shot found the left bottom corner for the 2-0 lead for Norway!
Brilliant start for the Norwegians!
Denmark's Mikkel Boedker lost the puck on the left wing and then Mathis Olimb was away with a break away for Norway but was stopped by Galbraith in the Danish net who made a spectacular pad save! Still the rebound came to MATS TRYGG who scored into the wide open net for the early lead!
Assisted by Mathis Olimb.
