Sunday 01.06.2014, 13:00 • Small hall, Pardubice, Czech Republic • IIHF Inline Hockey World Championship

		Welcome. Game starts at 13:00.
		Hello and welcome everyone to the first game of this year's IIHF inline hockey world championship in Pardubice! All the teams are now full of energy and the newcomer of Division I from Brazil would like to surprise his opponent, Team Austria, silver medalist from Dresden!
		Starting lineups: Brazil: Goncalves (Marques) – Guilardi, Custodio, Almeida Filho, Guzman – Araujo, Brandao, Geraldini, Gomes – Andrade, Polido, De Magalhaes, Vasconcelos – Silva, Dos Santos. Austria: Hirn (Zeugswetter) – Lange, Reinthaler, Oberkofler, Spannring – Riener, Schweda, Macierzynski, Niec – Müller, Haidinger, Zwerger. Referees: Scott (AUS), Haszonits (HUN).
	00:01	Game started.
	00:38	Austria had the first attack of the game, but didn't manage to get a shot.
	01:13	Now Daniel Oberkofler tried it by himself from between the circles, Goncalves had clear sight.
	02:22	Team Brazil is now the active one, Lorenz Hirn also had to make his first save on a shot from left circle.
	03:30	Mathias Müller allowed his teammates to make a substitution.
	04:05	Goncalves makes a save with his right pad. Austrians are very dangerous now.
	04:58	Brazil is deep in the defense and can't make anything.
	06:04	Good slap shot by Andre Niec. Goncalves had to use his blocker, luckily for him the shot wasn't redirected.
	07:27	This might have been very disappointing moment for Austria, but Brazil didn't score from the odd man rush!
	07:35	Goal for Team Austria! The favourited team takes the lead. Spannring made a great move on the left sice and passed the puck to DANIEL OBERKOFLER who hit the empty net. Assists: Patrick Spannring, Youssef Riener.
	08:49	Goal for Team Austria! Another nice moment by Patrick Spannring. He took the puck behind the net and then found his teammate KRISTOF REINTHALER. His shot went right to the corner! Assist: Patrick Spannring, Harry Lange.
	10:34	Team Brazil has just some weak attempts, Austria is the better team.
	11:25	But now the puck is mostly on the side of the zone, Goncalves stays calm.
	12:00	1st period finished.
		Well-deserved lead for the Austrians. However, Brazil defended well and then had the biggest chance to get the lead, but didn't score and then conceded two goals.
	12:01	Start of 2nd period.
	12:43	Brazilians took a shot from the left circle, Hirn made an shaky save with his catching glove.
	13:38	Another job for Lorenz Hirn. Bruno Gomes was all alone on the right place ready for rebound, but also very close to the goalie.
	14:14	On the other side, Andre Niec was found by his teammate but had the puck far ahead of his stick.
	15:11	Icing called against the Brazilians who are under pressure now.
	16:58	Nice combination led to Youssef Riener. Goncalves probably saw the shot from the beginning and made a kick save.
	17:50	First penalty of the game is called against Team Austria. Youssef Reiner gets minor for hooking.
	18:55	Again it was Bruno Gomes who had a good opportunity. He missed the net, the puck went under his legs.
	19:57	Goal for Team Austria! Brazil couldn't capitalise from their power-play and now is behind three! It was the first line again and DANIEL OBERKOFLER who scored his second goal of the game. Assists: Harry Lange, Patrick Spannring.
	21:12	The pace of the game is now a bit slower, Brazilians try to invent something in the attack.
	22:35	However, it was somebody from the Austrian squad whose shot hit the crossbar!
	23:41	Now even bigger oportunity for Brazil. Joao Vasconcelos also hit the post with his huge slap shot!
	24:00	2nd period finished.
		Well, it may look like a clear game, but Brazil also had some chances. I don't think Austrians can be satisfied with their game. Still they are the better team for sure.
	24:01	Start of 3rd period.
	24:50	Austria holds the puck behind their net.
	25:56	Lorenz Hirn was a bit surprised when the shot by Diego Araujo nearly from the red line flew to him. However, he has the puck somewhere in his equipment.
	27:23	Another save by the Austrian goalie on a shot by Almeida Filho. It looks to me like Brazil is getting better and better.
	28:15	Goal for Team Austria! Bad luck. Austria had a counterattack and Patrick Spannring passed the puck to HARRY LANGE who managed to hit the empty net. Another great action by Spannring who has the fourth assist of the game! Assists: Patrick Spannring, Daniel Oberkofler.
	30:43	No rush by Team Austria, they just patiently wait for their chances and control the lead.
	31:50	And so there are another couple of saves by Lorenz Hirn. Unfortunately for the spectators these shots aren't much dangerous.
	32:49	And again. Diego Araujo was all alone between two opponents, his shot was an easy job for Hirn's blocker.
	34:20	After a long play without the whistle now referees had to stop it. Hirn has got the puck.
	35:21	Luiz Almeida Filho didn't shoot much accurate. Otherwise Hirn maybe could have had some problems.
	36:00	3rd period finished.
		I guess most of the spectators would like to see a Brazilian goal. But the score on their side is still 0 and Austria is heading to the victory.
	36:01	Start od 4th period.
	38:24	First power-play for Team Austria. Rogerio Polido gets minor for holding.
	39:54	Goal for Team Austria! Just when the power-play ended the Austrians lead by five goals. Goncalves didn't see when HARRY LANGE shot from the red line and the puck stopped in the net. Assists: Kevin Macierzynski, Kristof Reinthaler.
	41:08	Goal for Team Austria! And another one, I guess Brazil will be very sad after this game. Now it was a great individual move by DANIEL OBERKOFLER who has hat-trick now! No assist.
	41:35	Goal for Team Austria! First Austrian line is just unbelieveable today. Seventh goal for the team, seventh thanks to their work! After Lange's pass PATRICK SPANNRING hit the upper corner. Assists: Harry Lange, Daniel Oberkofler.
	43:32	Second power-play opportunity for Austria. Diego Araujo gets minor for tripping.
	44:33	Brazilian defender was the first who reached the lone puck and helped Goncalves to make a save.
	45:22	Brazilia is at full strength.
	45:46	Oberkofler was hooked down and Austria has got a penalty shot!
	45:46	Goal for Team Austria! Yeah! DANIEL OBERKOFLER didn't make any wild move, just shot the puck to a small empty spot in the net. His fourth goal of the game!
	47:01	Brazil still has some power, the Southamericans don't want to give up.
	47:36	It might have been a symbolic goal by Brazil but Lorenz Hirn didn't allow it.
	48:00	Game over.
		What a disappointing result for the Brazilians. They didn't score a single goal even they had some chances, Austria was far better in finishing their actions. But their victory is well-deserved. Best players of the game: Diego Araujo – Daniel Oberkofler (14:21:01)
