So we'll have to beat Sweden by 4 and hope Switzerland can contain Norway. Easy :lol:

It would be cool if the Netherlands could qualify. They will probably qualify all teams on the womens side except womens rugby/basketball and maybe womens football. :thumbup:

Attachment is the great fabricator of illusions; reality can be obtained only by someone who is detached.

Actually "only" beating Sweden by 2 will do. Both teams will be at GD 0, but Netherlands will have scored more goals in any case. 

Netherlands will however need to win by 5 goals in case Norway beats Switzerland by 1 goal (and if NOR wins by 2, then NED needs to wins by 6 and so on).

    • I think the reason is that it's generally preferable to have a fast shooter in the 1st leg, and especially in the prone shooting, where Hofer is quite slow.   Now, I'm not saying I agree with the choice, because I don't. I think it's going to neutralize Giacomel's skiing skills in the 1st lap at least.   I guess the idea is to try and set a very fast pace in the 1st leg, which is usually quite tactical, but I'm afraid that's going to force Giacomel to risk too much because he will feel he has to make some time somehow.   Regardless, Italy must be on the podium tomorrow. I think that would be crucial for the following races as well. I think France is the clear favorite, but the other teams are not stronger than Italy on paper.
