What a weird goal! The shot from ANETA LEDLOVA hit the goal post, came back and hit Bekkering, who tried to rescue it before it dribbled across the line but just couldn't reach it. And the Czechs pour off the bench and mob Ledlova behind the net against the glass.
Assist: Karolina Kosinova.
So the final game of the Women's Ball Hockey World Championship will be determined in overtime. If nobody scores in the 10-minute sudden-death period, it will go to a shootout.
Shots on goal in 3rd period (and game): CZE 18 (35), USA 4 (16).
Quality scoring chances: CZE 6 (9), USA 2 (6).
Overtime begins at 13:13 CEST, 07:13 EDT.
They rush into the zone, Zechova stopped the initial shot, but TIFFANY PFUNDT was there to put in the rebound.
