For much more experienced Bermuda, this is their 9th appearance in the World Championship competition. In Pardubice, they won their first game over France 4-3 after shootouts. However, the France won over the Brits by one goal margin as well, so we may witness another dramatic closure.

Deflected shot from blue line caused chaos on the crease, Estey got to the ball, put it in front of the net and CHRISTOPHER MERRITT buried it for 1-0! Assisted by Jeremy Estey.
It's even again! MICHAEL HABIB scores with a precise shot over Holmes' shoulder from left wing side to make it 1-1! Assisted by Noel Feghali and Bassil Boulos.

He won't be happy now though. ROBERT BAILEY won a face off for himself and went for a quick shot. He surprised Habib and found the back of the net – 2-1! No assist.
Penalty for Lebanon (Bassil Boulos – 2 min., Tripping).
It's a two-goal game now! Great feed by Bailey for JACOB AMLONG on the circles. Amlong had plenty of time, he picked the top corner and executed with precision – 3-1. Assisted by Robert Bailey and Tom Worthington-White.
