    Thank you for following the game with us! Tomorrow follow another four important matches we all cover for you! (22:41:30)
     
    With a late goal by Patrick Thoresen the Norwegians made null and void the nice race to catch up by the Danes who had come back after a 0-2 deficit tonight when they played with a lot of heart!

    Shots on goal: Norway 8 (23) – Denmark 4 (29)

    Norway now have made a big step towards the quarterfinal qualification with now 6 points while Denmark stay without a single point and have to still fear to even stay in the top division.

    59:26
    The Danes have problems to create any danger and concentrate on keeping the puck inside the Norwegian zone.

    Big hit by Nichlas Hardt – his 4th tonight – but no penalty call against him.
     
    57:28
    Goal for Team Norway!

    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.

    Tollefsen leaves the ice injured. He had clear signs of a concussion.

    Wrap-around try by Anders Bastiansen, stopped by Galbraith.

    Norway now try to find back into the match but it is hard after letting the Danes play so long.
     
    49:58
    Goal for Team Denmark!

    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.
     
    49:35
    Harmless situation in front of the Norwegian net but Mats Trygg jumps into Jesper Jensen.
     
    48:30
    The game has totally changed after the Danis goal. First Norway defended very relaxed as the danger of a Danish strike was rather far away and now after they finally made it happen, the Norwegians get a little nervous.
     
    46:12
    Next dangerous opportunity for the Danes but the shot fromt he blue line goes just wide past the left post.
