It was a very nervous. But Poland may still have chances. If belarus will be scratched from the next round, IIHF will need (at least) one more team to fill the group.

Poland got 1 point today, so you have the best chance to become the best second placed team among all the groups right now.

Congrats for win.

 

I hate when not everything depends from us, but from other athletes/teams or like in this case, on IIHF and IOC decisions...

Ukraine did it on shootouts ! They still have to beat Estonia to advance to finals. Never thought they had a chance after the 1st period.

We are little bit shocked. Poland is a very strong opponent in hockey for us - our last win was in 2013.

 

But I hope both our teams will proceed to the next round due to the disqualifications of belarus (and russia).

Thank you. Your team totally outplayed us in the 1st period. But penalties - is always a kind of lottery.

Hope you will win against Corea and we will have one more game in the next round.

Ukraine? More like Upsaine/Sensaine at this point, this week we produced too many fantastic comebacks/upsets/sensations, I am really glad for the guys, they need this win so much :cheer:

We did beat South Korea 6-0 few days ago, I know it was friendly match, but I can't see that we can loss against them. I'm hoping that our team will take lesson from this match and will play much better at Worlds in May. Main goal should be to stay in elite, everything else will be huge success.

Ukraine- Poland was the best game of the first two rounds... Ukraine still has to beat Estonia. If they lose Poland or even South Korea could advance.

 

 

For me i was torn on this game.  I am a American but my dad was  from Poland and my mom from Ukraine

The most beautiful goal of this Olympics cycle so far was scored by :ROU Huba-Ferenc Bors after an assist from Szilard Rokaly who literally himself swept with the complete Serbian line :hockey:

    • Massage guy had a wound on his finger. Treated it with a legal spray, which included clostebol. Then massaged Sinner, and that's how it ended up in Sinner's body.   I mean, I guess it's theoretically possible  
    • OR he has been planning this for a while, and was honest enough to race for australia at the olympics and win them a sack full of medals getting them a good return for their investment.  If you think team Australia didn't know that he had applied to switch to GB pre olympics then you should wise up.
    • I think it’s standard procedure to not publish now until someone is suspended. As he appealed against a provisional suspension it wasn’t revealed until it was all resolved.

    • Jannik Sinner tested positive twice for banned substance clostebol.     Testing agencies didn't publish his doping results to public.   Tribunal ruled that cream used on his cut caused contamination.   He has been cleared of the dopings.
    • https://www.bbc.com/sport/tennis/articles/cq5d3nl1pd9o   Italy is running a Russian style doping programe for sure. 
    • Take away his passport!! Not an overreaction at all, like...    
    • It's been 40-50 years, but the Boogeyman is still kicking high for Westerners. 
    • Of those: I have no justification for Lacrosse or Flag Football. If Cricket isn't popular enough to justify being in the Olympic then we have to cut most sports from the Olympics. The main justifications I can see for Baseball not being deserving of an Olympic spot is that the women's game is extremely underdeveloped (to the point that Softball is substituted as a women's version) and that the top pros have never taken part in the Olympics. But Baseball is one of the most developed and competitive team sport in the world on the men's side. It definitively dwarfs exisitng Olympic team sports like Water Polo, Handball and Field Hockey. The main reason I think breaking being in the Olympics would make sense as a permanent inclusion is that it's dirt cheap to host - very few athletes, relatively few officials, very easy to produce for TV and re-using an exisitng venue. It really doesn't need to have very much appeal to be worth it.
    • I actually think is going to be favourites to win both the men's and women's events   The format at the Olympics is sixes, which isn't the same as the traditional outdoor lacrosse format. It has a lot of elements that make it more similar to box lacrosse (an indoor version of lacrosse played on a pitch the size of an ice hockey rink), and that's a version of the game Canada absolutely dominated.   ...but ya, and are almost locks for the gold medal game in both the men's and women's event. If the Haudenosaunee are allowed to compete then there is a real chance there could be a North American sweep in the men's event.
