Huge turnover inside the French third! Yohann Auvitu lost the puck against Janis Sprukts while trying to get the puck out of the defensive zone nad Sprukts then gave a perfect pass back to the slot from where LAURIS DARZINS scored the decision for Latvia!
Assisted by Janis Sprukts.
The referees were asked to review their decision once more and this time they decided to give a good goal! JULIEN DESROSIERS is the goal scorer in power play for France! Strange situation you don't see that often.
Assisted by Yorick Treille and Kevin Hecquefeuille.
JANIS SPRUKTS won the puck inside the neutral zone and was all alone in a break away in which he stayed the winner against Huet with a fast shot into the right corner! 2-0 for Latvia!
Assisted by Martins Cipulis.
The Latvians score the lead early with their first man advantage! A shot from the blue line looked rather harmless but Huet allowed a rebound that was used by MARTINS CIPULIS to get the puck into the wide open net!
Assisted by Janis Sprukts and Ralfs Freibergs.
