    David Kase shows a perfect timing and finds Dufek on the 2nd blue line. His shot misses the upper bar for a few centimetres!
     
    54:17
    For obvious reasons, Czech players are focusing on defending their blue line and contrary, Finnish players are trying to reach the zone.
     
    52:58
    Even Vladar can´t rest, another two saves for him.
     
    51:55
    The 3rd Czech line doesn´t let the opponent breath and makes a great pressure to them right during setting up an action.
     
    51:12
    Juolevi sends a quick shot to Vladar, and although Vladar doesn´t have an easy position, he saves.
     
    49:39
    Vladar beat in a hundred percentage opportunity Sebastian Aho! Finnish forward reaches the puck right after a face-off but the Czech goalie lowers his ankle for shot and keeps his team in the leading.
    Lukas JASEK - 4:3
     
    47:30
    Goal for Team Czech Republic!
    Wow, that´s a really quick response by the home team. The power play took only 9 seconds when Zboril´s shot was tipped in by LUKAS JASEK. Assisted by Jakub Zboril and Filip Chlapik.
     
    47:21
    Jonne Tammela (FIN) gets a minor penalty for hooking.
