Yes, and depending of the result between Italy and the Netherlands, we could witness a very strange match tomorrow (ie both teams playing to loose)

Why would they both play to lose?

Anyway, it doesn't seem it's going to be the case (Italy is leading by 6 goals).

What is the tiebreak ??

 

Looks like Netherlands, Spain and Italy will be in a 3 way tie for first.

Goal difference between the three teams, meaning:

 

1) Italy

2) Spain

3) That other team we would like to play against for an olympic spot.

I know we'll be 3rd and should have a considerably easier match Friday than today

 

Not saying it will be easy obviously, but yeah, something is absolutely possible

So that likely means Canada and France will play to win lol. Canada finishes second with a tie as well.

Indeed, and from a french perspective, the match needs to be won as I don't think we will stand a chance against Spain.
