Tre Kronor immediately shows who’s in charge and who’s best when they run over the Brits. It was a slightly slower pace at the end, but a 6-0 overall win.
Tre Kronor gets off to a flying start when the team wins all duels, and he’s very determined from the start. The payoff really came 13 seconds later, and it didn’t take much longer for Tre Kronor to take over the lead. Asplund scores a rebound and it’s 1-0 against Sweden. Sweden continues to pressure the Brits and extends the lead to 2-0 when Nordstrom gets in front of the goal and cuts the ball in. Then you come up 3-0 with half of the first half played.
Tre Kronor runs both a 4-0 through Rasmus Dahlin and a 5-0 through Asplund in the numerical advantage before the end of the period. Rasmus Dahlin was scoreless before this match, after the first half he scored a goal and made two assists.
Savings for tomorrow’s derby
It is noted that Sweden has slowed down because Great Britain has more of the puck and has more chances. Even during the powerplay, Tre Kronor couldn’t pick up the pace to take advantage of the numerical advantage. Sweden won the shots 19-4 in the first period, and in the second period it was 8-8. Simply a nice period. The highlight was when the British put the puck on the crossbar when they had a numerical advantage. Still leading 5-0 to Sweden.
The third period begins in a similar way to the second, at a rather slow pace and not much happening. Even in this period, Sweden is getting a power play, and it’s a rather weak one. It is quite clear that Sweden will play the game and save the game against Finland tomorrow. There would be one last goal Sweden managed before the end of the match. A comfortable 6-0 win for Sweden. Tomorrow is the derby against Finland, 19.20.
