Germany makes a false start to the World Cup

At the start, national coach Marco Sturm's team lost to the hosts 2:3 (0:0, 1:2, 1:0, 0:0, 0:1) after a penalty shootout and suffered a setback in the fight for participation in the quarter-finals.

68 days after the silver sensation in Pyeongchang, the DEB selection, with only ten Olympians left, was unable to match its achievements in South Korea, but was at least able to console itself with one point.

Jesper Jensen (29th) and Frederik Storm (36th) put Denmark in the lead, Edmonton star Leon Draisaitl (33rd) and Nuremberg's Yasin Ehliz (51st) equalized for the Storm team with five World Cup debutants. NHL professional Frans Nielsen then sealed Germany's fifth defeat in the seventh World Cup duel with the Danes in the penalty shootout.

Sweden is not taking any risks In the second game of the evening, the “Tre Kronor” team let the thousands of Swedish fans cheer in the Royal Arena. With a double strike from Lias Andersson and Gustav Nyquist within 28 seconds, the Swedes laid the foundation for victory in the 10th minute. The other goals for the Swedes, who came with 16 NHL players, were scored by Matthias Janmark (24th), Rickard Rakell (34th) and Mika Zibanejad (57th).

Russia and the USA had already started the tournament in the afternoon with victories against France and Canada respectively ( here go to the report).
