    12:29
    Goal for Hradec Kralove!
    I guess this will be very important first goal of the game! Straka sent away a shot by Jan Fiser with his blocker, but the ball got to captain PETR SVANDA who was on the right place for rebound – 0-1! Assist: Jan Fiser.

    08:53
    Wrong pass by players of Hradec means icing.
     
    07:41
    Vlasim is even after the power play better and active.
     
    06:46
    Hradec Kralove full strength.
     
    06:32
    Another save by Jan Simara, goalie from Letohrad, but on this tournament playing for Hradec.

    04:46
    Daniel Nutil (Hradec) – minor penalty for interference.
     
    04:35
    But then Jan Fiser from Hradec turned himself around and Straka had to make a save with his pad.

    We don't see many actions on either side.
     
    02:28
