    And there's the final buzzer, it's a comfortable 4-0 victory for Sweden! Despite taking a very early lead through an Emma Nordin goal the Swedes had to ride their luck at times, but three third period goals from Cecilia Ostberg, Johanna Olofsson and Pernilla Winberg killed off all German hopes. Thanks for following the game with us, and join me later on today for Russia against Japan! (13:13:13)

    Game over.
     
    59:58
    Two seconds before the final buzzer the Swedes are back to full strength
     
    59:30
    We're now into the final 30 seconds of the game
     
    58:02
    Grahm on a shorthanded rush skates through one on one, she goes out wide looking for the left hand post but Harss saves well!
     
    57:58
    Eliasson has been called for elbowing and Germany have a late powerplay chance to get on the board
     
    57:38
    Both teams are now back to full strength
     
    56:51
    Wester breaks through on the left, tries to go upstairs at Harss's near post but it's turned around the boards
     
    55:38
    Lowenhielm dives in front of Harss and she just manages to cover it. And now Tanja Eisenschmid for Germany has been called for roughing along with Lowenhielm for the Swedes
     
    54:37
    Harss covers up the puck on a long pass towards her goal. The third Swedish goal has now been credited to Johanna Olofsson by the way
     
    53:04
    From a sharp angle the puck is thrown towards Martin Hasson's near post, but she gets a glove on it and covers
     
    52:39
    Martin Hasson makes a solid double save on the doorstep to keep her shutout going
     
    51:35
    And Germany have taken a well needed timeout, they're being simply swept away in this period
     
    51:35
    Goal for Team Sweden! They're running away with it! PERNILLA WINBERG finds space on the left and goes waterbottle on Harss with a rasping slapshot, it's already 4-0! Assists- Anna Borgqvist
     
    50:31
    Goal for Team Sweden! Ostberg is denied by Harss but the puck comes back out to JOHANNA OLOFSSON who's slapshot takes a number of deflections before hitting the net, 3-0! Assists- Cecilia Ostberg and Michelle Lowenhielm
     
    50:08
    Hard slapper from the point from Busch, but it's right down the throat of Martin Hasson
     
    49:32
    That goal has given the Swedes the breathing space they needed, and Germany really have to show their character if they're to save the game
     
    47:42
    Goal for Team Sweden! The Swedes do indeed punish their opponents for their missed chances! CECILIA OSTBERG skates away after a poor German mistake, plays a sweet one two with Anna Borgqvist and hits the net with ease, it's 2-0! Assists- Anna Borgqvist
     
    46:59
    Sweden with ease have killed the penalty and they are back to full strength, the Germans really need to take advantage of all the chances they have
     
    44:59
    Sweden cough the puck up terribly, Bittner skates clean through one on one but she's denied when trying to go five hole! And Cecilia Ostberg for interference in that play has been sent to the penalty box for the Swedes
