    The Canadians had everything under controll during the last 20 minutes and kept the result 3-0! For Canada it's a big step towards the quarterfinals while Sweden suffered another setback against a top team during this tournament.

    Shots on goal: Sweden 17 (33) – Canada 5 (27)
     
    60:00
    Game over.
     
    59:40
    Canada plays it very clever now and they keep the puck inside the Swedish zone.
     
    58:55
    Combination between Eberle and Hall but the shot from short distance goes wide.
     
    57:45
    The Canadians win the face off but the following shot from within the slot is no danger for Markström.
     
    56:49
    After a pass by Stamkos Canada had the next opportunity, this time through a one-timer, but the shot went wide.
     
    55:45
    The Canadians now just try to keep the puck inside the Swedish zone and don't even get towards the net just to get time off the clock.
     
    54:34
    Henrik Tallinder with a one-timer from the right circle but Smith also gets a save against this shot!
     
    53:58
    Another blue line shot by the Swedes but again no danger for the net of Smith.
     
    53:24
    Dick Axelsson with a shot from the blue line, goes wide.
     
    Commercial break.
     
    51:54
    Taylor Hall and Luke Schenn with a one-two combination before Hall fires the puck towards the net from short distance but Markström keeps the puck otuside of his net which then was moved out of its original position by several players.
     
    50:51
    Goalie change by the Swedes. Eroth leaves the ice injured – apparently he's hurt one of his feet – and Markström is now in for him for the last minutes.
     
    50:43
    Lundqvist with a shot from just right to the Canadian net but Smith paid attention and stopped the puck in time.
     
    48:47
    The Canadians continue to controll everything but have taken 1 feet from the gas.
     
    47:15
    Almost the break away opportunity for the Canadians but two defensemen were able to block the Canadian forward who was all by his own.
     
    47:06
    Icing by Canada.
     
    46:29
    Sweden's team captain Staffan Kronwall with a shot from a half left position, blocked away by the goalie.
     
    45:42
    The Swedes are back at full strength.
