Amazing shot! :GBR

As now we come across the world

In brotherhood unfold

Some really bad curling from Sweden in the 9th end and :GBR leads 11-8! Game over IMO.

How did they not see that coming?  Tons of yellow in the 4-foot & only one red which was always going out.

There wasn't really anything they could do.  Sweden actually did a good job to make it really hard for GB to score, GB just made some amazing shots.

I don't get the whole tactics of this game but Polish commentators were also puzzled why Sweden left so many GB stones in the center? :dunno:

It’s the difference between the men’s & the women’s game.  The women don’t have the option to chick a hand grenade in when the going gets sticky.

The two experts helping with commentary on the BBC both said that picking up a four on the first end might actually cause Sweden to make the mistake of changing their tactics in order to defend their lead from too far out. They did and it looks like they're going to pay the price.
