59 Long years later, Great Britain finally celebrated a victory at the World Cup after regular time.
After the victory against Belarus, Sweden is waiting for the next one.

Sweden’s squad at Hockey World Cup
Great Britain beat Belarus in overtime loss against Denmark yesterday – beating Trey Kroner in previous matches.
In 2019 the English were able to stay in the A-AWC with difficulty, and tonight’s victory was the first consecutive victory in the A-WC since 1962 (7-5 against Finland).
– It was a very long time ago. A great achievement, senior pointer Matthew Myers, 36, is about three pointers.
Excellent play
Liam Kirk, who made twelve appearances for Swedish hockey Ethan Club Hanhalls this winter, won a big match with his two goals to a 4-3 victory.
The team is waiting for a day off before facing Sweden opposition on Friday. Sport-plated defender David Clements, 26, asked, even if they count three points?
– We hope so! We try to add new people to the team during the pre-camp first and competition. The players and coaches were excellent at it. That team has been incredible over the last three, four years. We fight in all competitions and believe in victory. There is no reason to believe we are coming up with three points from there, he says.
“We will do the same against Sweden”
What do you know about the Swedish team?
– They are incredibly good and have the right team from the goalkeepers. A fantastic team. We know it will be tough, but there is nothing better than competing with the best players in the world. We will enjoy embracing it. Matthew Myers says we aim to play better after the match and we will do the same against Sweden.
They will face the Czech Republic on Thursday, before Tray Kroner is set against Great Britain.
