    57:37
    Michelle Weis couldn't capitalize from her break. But time is running down for the Slovaks who don't have any opportunities now.
     
    54:09
    I would say – a stupid foul by Lenka Srokova (SVK). Minor penalty for women body checking and this is not good for the Slovaks.
     
    52:25
    A couple of players lied on ice but Slovakia didn't manage to reboud the puck.
     
    51:12
    Josefine Jakobsen shot after a great slalom, Budajova makes a save with her shoulder.
     
    49:58
    And they get their power play too. Petra Pravlikova (SVK) – 2 minutes for hooking.
     
    48:04
    We can see an even third period but Denmark has scoring chances. Now for two times it was Josefine Jakobsen who couldn't beat Jana Budajova!
     
    46:08
    Jakobsen and Weis again all alone. Budajova holds the Slovak hopes!
     
    45:09
    Fast counterattack by Slovakia, then immediately a breakaway for the opponent. None of them was successful.
     
    42:39
    Hey, they don't listen. Malene Frandsen (DEN) – 2 minutes for slashing.
     
    39:26
    Again very long 5-on-3 opportunity for the Slovaks! Josefine Jakobsen (DEN) – 2 minutes for tripping.
     
    39:23
    Fantastic block by Josefine Jakobsen on a shot by Zitnanska.
     
    38:35
    But just for a short while. Julie Gregersen (DEN) – 2 minutes for holding. Another big opportunity!
     
    37:47
    Pravlikova, then Veliskova could have cut the lead to one. Denied by Lisa Jensen!
     
    36:06
    53 second 5-on-3 for Team Slovakia! Josefine Jakobsen (DEN) – minor for delaying the game. Now or never!
     
    34:59
    Power play for the Slovaks! Michelle Weis (DEN) – 2 minutes for women body checking.
     
    33:27
    Another post hit by the Slovaks! What a thriller!
     
    32:13
    Goal for Team Slovakia!
    Unbelieveable, here comes the third one! Shot by Velickova was deflected by PETRA JURCOVA and luckily bounced behind the goal line! Assist: Martina Velickova.
     
    31:42
    But now another Slovak player gets a minor. Martina Muchova (SVK) – 2 minutes for women body checking. 4-on-4
     
    31:04
    Hidden shot from the blue line hit the post!
     
    30:24
    Power play for Slovakia! Too many Danish players on ice.
     
    28:07
    Goal for Team Slovakia!
    What an explosion on the Slovakian bench! This time it was PETRA JURCOVA in the breakaway and put the puck just between Jensen's pads! Assist: Miriam Mikeskova.
     
    27:43
    Goal for Team Slovakia!
    Finally some joy for the Slovaks and even in their short-handed play! Mikeskova sent MARTINA VELICKOVA in counterattack and the captain scores from the rebound! Assist: Miriam Mikeskova.
     
    27:24
    Huge pressure by Denmark doesn't end with another goal. Slovakia in four players.
     
    26:04
    Goal for Team Denmark!
    Viktoria Ihnatova was in the attack but her pass back was a very bad idea. MICHELLE WEIS got it and from the breakaway scores her second of the game! Assist: Marie Henriksen.
     
    25:33
    Not this way. Another penalty for Team Slovakia! Gabriela Zitnanska (SVK) – 2 minutes for roughing.
     
    25:23
    1:36 5-on-3 for Team Denmark! Martina Velickova (SVK) gets minor for delaying the game.
     
    24:59
    Michelle Brix Nielsen made some nice movement on the left side and was tripped. Minor penalty for Miriam Mikeskova (SVK).
     
    22:49
    Wow, couple of great pad saves by Jana Budajova! The Danish were really strong in the blue circle.
     
    21:53
    Denmark is playing in the full strenght and will have their own power play. Gabriela Zitnanska (SVK) – 2 minutes for boarding.
     
    19:29
    Goal for Team Denmark!
    Yes, now we see how important it was. It is 4-0! Very nice move by Henriksen who passed it to MICHELLE WEIS and Budajova recieved her first of the game. Assists: Marie Henriksen, Josefine Jakobsen.
     
    18:55
    First goal for Slovakia was now very close, but Ihnatova couldn't beat Jensen's right pad! That was important.
     
    16:17
    Now another penalty for Team Denmark. Josefine Persson (DEN) – 2 minutes for tripping.
     
    13:55
    Now we will watch some four on four. Martina Velickova (SVK) – 2 minutes for interference.
     
    13:08
    All shots were deflected and Slovakia couldn't capitalise from this huge opportunity.
     
    12:15
    This is not a good power play, but now we will see 5-on-3! Malene Frandsen (DEN) – 2 minutes for hooking.
     
    11:06
    Maria Olausson (DEN) – 2 minutes for tripping.
     
    10:39
    Change in the goal crease of Team Slovakia, Jana Budajova is now in the net.
     
    10:39
    Goal for Team Denmark!
    The Slovaks are now three goals behind, what a fantastic start by Team Denmark. MALENE FRANDSEN was ready for rebound and didn't give Kiapesova any chance. Assist: Julie Gregersen.
     
    10:04
    That was just sensational combination, but Simone Jacquet missed the net.
     
    09:07
    Now we will see first power play for Denmark. Martina Velickova (SVK) – 2 minutes for hooking. This is really not good for the Slovaks.
     
    07:37
    Goal for Team Denmark!
    Big mistake by Kezmarska on the blue line, another breakaway and second goal for Team Denmark! This time it was JOSEPHINE ASPERUP and Kiapesova was weak with her blocker. Assist: Josefine Jakobsen.
     
    05:35
    Nicoline Jensen (DEN) – 2 minutes for women body checking. First power play for Slovakia.
     
    03:54
    Goal for Team Denmark!
    Well-deserved lead for Denmark! It was JOSEFINE PERSSON, who found herself in another fast turnover and luckily pushed the puck between Kiapesova's pads. No assist.
     
    03:07
    Another one for Team Denmark. Nicoline Jensen's shot was deflected, but Kiapesova had very fast right pad.
