    Welcome along to an evening of crunch CHL action!
     
    The first game is Sparta vs. SC Bern, which is tied at one each from last week.
     
    So, we're almost ready to go in Prague.
     
    Under way in Prague, and remember its winner takes all!
     
    10 minutes played in Prague, and no goals to report as yet... good crowd though!
     
    Five minutes then until we get going in Vaxjo, Lakers hosting ZSC. Remember the sides played out a scoreless tie last week.
     
    Off we go in Vaxjo
     
    Period two now under way in Prague – but in Vaxjo the Lakers are a goal down to ZSC!
     
    Now 2-0 for ZSC in Vaxjo, could a shock be on the cards?
     
    GOAL!

    Sparta Prague take the lead on the PP against SC Bern!
     
    Well that didn't last long, Bern go up the other end and equalise!
     
    Oh dear... Genoni beaten by a shot from the 90 degree angle on the goal line, and Sparta are back ahead.
     
    The game in Fribourg has now started, where the hosts have a 3-0 lead over Vitkovice from last week.
     
    Another goal for Sparta in Prague, and they lead Bern 3-1!
     
    Now also the game in Linkoping has started – can LHC overturn a 4-goal deficit to Frolunda?
     
    GOAL!

    Vaxjo back in it at home to ZSC, 1-2 they trail now.

    In Fribourg, it's 1-1 between the hosts and Vitkovice.
     
    Looks like a long way back for Vitkovice now – 2-1 down in Fribourg, which is 7-3 on aggregate.
     
    GOAL!

    Vaxjo are level! 2-2 on the night against ZSC.
     
    Game over in Prague? Petr Kumstat scores SH to put Sparta 4-1 up! 11:17 to play.
     
    GOAL!

    Frolunda move to 5-0 ahead of aggregate as they take the lead on the night in Linkoping.
     
    GOAL!

    Linkoping tie things up on the night, now back to trailing by four.
     
    Frolunda move 2-1 up and 6-1 ahead on aggregate now of Linkoping.
     
    GOAL!

    Late drama in Vaxjo, the Lakers score on the PP and lead 3-2 with only minutes to go!
     
    All over in Vaxjo, Lakers win!
     
    3-2 to Frolunda now in Linkoping, 6-2 on aggregate.
     
    Two periods now done in Linkoping, and Frolunda are 4-2 up on the night (agg. 8-2). Over in Fribourg it's still 3-1 to the hosts over Vitkovice.
     
    Frolunda move to 5-2 ahead in Linkoping...

    and Fribourg have won 3-2 on the night so qualify as the only Swiss side left!
