    The score didn't change in the third period, so Nitra takes all three points and advances to the Round of 32 from the first place in the group. (20:31:56)
     
    Game over.
     
    59:51
    Standing ovation for Nitra. Fans are already celebrating.
     
    59:26
    Nitra controls the puck in the offensive zone.
     
    58:56
    Pupak's one-timer went wide.
     
    58:43
    Maybe all Stavanger's chances are over. Tim Kunes gets two minutes for high-sticking. Holm is back in his net.
     
    58:23
    Kissel hits the post! Stavanger was so close.
     
    58:09
    Holm is on the bench! Stavanger has an empty net.
     
    58:02
    Kissel missed the shot, but it surprisingly helped his teammates in front of the net, who had a chance to tip the puck in. But everything ended only with a huge scramble.
     
    57:56
    Holm is looking on the bench, probably wants to skate there so his team can play with four skaters.
     
    57:13
    Stavanger doesn't have much time to tie the game, but still plays quite slowly and waits for the mistakes on the other side of ice.
     
    56:21
    Soberg felt down in front of Valent, but referees stay calm. Still no penalties in the third period.
     
    55:50
    Kutalek skated along the left boarding in front of Holm, but in the final moment one of the Stavanger's d-men blocked him the way in front of the net.
     
    54:48
    Now Medhus with a similar chance like Forsberg. But Medhus didn't even hit the puck in front of Valent.
     
    53:11
    Forsberg waiten in front od Valent and tried it with backhand rebound. Valent saved it with his left pad.
     
    52:50
    And Nitra continues with good defending. Stavanger has minimum chances even to shot. Norwegian team had only 3 shots in the third period.
     
    51:32
    Stavanger with couple of shots. But none of them caused Nitra's defence any troubles.
     
    50:26
    Nitra made it to the zone, but referees stopped this attemp with a whistle – offside.
     
    49:50
    Soares waited for a proper possiting at the top of the circles. But despite screening in front of him, Valent found the puck in the scramble in front of him.
