No, this game hasn't ended yet. Austria already had empty net and tied game at three! GERD GRUBER took wrist shot from right circle and got it into net. Assisted by Harry Lange.
Is it possible? Nobody waited this ending of match between Austria and Latvia! Team who now leads this game didn't have any points in basic group C but now is really close to get to semifinal! Ogorodnikovs lost puck infront of net but ARTURS BATRAKS tried to get puck between Hirn's lakes. And he did it! Assisted by Artjoms Ogorodnikovs and Aleksandrs Fadejevs.
Are you kidding me? Maybe nobody believed Latvia can tied this game at two but that already happend. Really big ovations in Small hal! ARTURS BATRAKS got puck to the right post where was ready to pass from Artjoms Ogorodnikovs. If somebody didn't believe in this he has to be surprised! Assisted by Artjoms Ogorodnikovs and Dmitrijs Sancovojs.
It's unbelievable! Who is here in Small hall in Pardubice has to be really surprised because Latvian showed wonderful moment infront of the Austrian net. Aleksandrs Fadejevs sent pretty pass onto stick of JANIS BULLITIS who took really incredible wrist shot under bar. Assisted by Aleksanders Fadejevs.
We waited for second goal for long time but that happend yet. Austrian are celebraiting another succesful shot. They scored when Patrick Spannrign sent absolutely great pass to PETER SCHWEDA who got puck between lakes Latvian goalie Renars Kazanovs. Assisted by Patrick Spannring and Mathias Muller.
First power play of the game and first goal of the game. Austria showed nice power play game when PATRICK SPANNRING got puck onto his stick and sent it next to right post. Assisted by Daniel Oberkofler and Harry Lange.
