Bro, today, I expected a better performance from  ... Hope they perform better in 1/4 finals ...... btw what about Kristián Pospíšil? What kinda problems he has? ... his behaviour reminds me  Radulov 

who know ? maybe too much "premotivovanosť" as many many many many and many times before in our games

 

many youngs learning + that first goal after 30 seconds did not really help the confidence of the youngsters to be fair and both teams already qualified , you know sorta no pressure or avoiding injuries performance.

[hckošice 15,811]

"Radulov" Pospíšil scored another nice one.

 

We pulled the goalie, no idea why and 3-7 is the final score

[hckošice 15,811]

so first Two quarterfinals set

Maaaan ! That save of Fadani against Zac Jones ! The save of the tournament !

[hckošice 15,811]

Time for the last two games of the preliminary Round.

 

Matches 55 and 56 will conclude the long round-robin phase.

 

In Group A another "friendly" match between "cousins" the Not Russia team will face . Russia will top the group if they earn at least 1 point from this game, meaning not losing in Regulation Time, otherwise they will go to the Quarterfinals as number 2 seeded from this group behind Switzerland.

Last game of the tournament for with a goal to not finish last of the group. any point from this match will be enough to pass over GB to the 7thplace of group A.

 

 

but the most tense game will be the match of Group B

 

vs a match that can rewrite history of this sport.

is awaiting the result.

 

If the match will end in Regulation Time by a tie. Both GER and LAT will advance to the quarterfinals and Canada, god forgive, will miss the Play-Offs for the first time ever and finish worse than 8th for the first time ever, any international competition of any category counted. So far the worst result id the 8th place from 1992 World Championships in former Czechoslovakia.
