World Cup in Cologne: The fifth defeat comes against Sweden

The Blue Team started the game strongly with Diego Kostner, who challenged Swedish goalie Fasth for the first time in the 2nd minute. But then Sweden cheekily took the lead in the 4th minute with a Kreuzeck goal. Three minutes later Scandella showed up, but Fath was safely in his own goal. In the 10th minute of the game, defender Holm made it 2-0 for Sweden after a long-range shot from Nylander was initially blocked by the Italian defense. The Swedes then remained in attack mode and almost found their third goal with Eriksson Ek.

The second third began with three clear chances to score for the Azzurri and in the 24th minute Giovanni Morini made it 1-2 in a power play. Nylander & Co. reacted immediately and after a strong press, Brodin made it 3-1 for Sweden with a long-range shot.

In the final third only one team played, namely Sweden. After the goal in the 41st minute, Omark & Co. were unstoppable and ultimately swept the Azzurri off the ice with a score of 8-1.

With just one point, the Blue Team is in last place in the table and is therefore close to relegation. Now the game against Germany is on Saturday (20.15:XNUMX p.m.).
