TAMMERFORS. Tre Kronor will face Canada in the World Cup quarter-finals in Finland.
When Finland beat the Czech Republic 3-0, it meant a tough showdown for Sweden.
We are looking forward to the quarter-final against Canada, it will be a great match. We are very happy with our game so far in the tournament and if we continue to stick to our game idea, we have good chances of winning,” says national team captain Johann Garbenlov.
Finland played hard focus in the face of the arena’s out-of-stock hysterical party atmosphere, while the Czech Republic was a bit tepid.
Finland wanted to beat Slovakia in the quarter-finals, and the Czech Republic didn’t seem interested in winning, reaching Germany in the quarter-finals.
Målen gjordes av Joel Armia från Montreal Canadiens, tidigare Örebro-Stjärnan Sakari Manninen och SHL bekante Toni Rajala.
When Finland won, that meant they were gone three crowns He ranked first in group B.
This means that Finland will face the simplest opposition Slovakia and Tre Kronor will face Canada in the quarter-finals.
Finland and the Czech Republic both wanted to avoid meeting Canada when the playoffs begin.
Barzal is the biggest star
Canada is largely made up of NHL players and the team includes famous stars such as Matthew Barzal, Pierre-Luc Dubois and Thomas Chabot.
Near the end of the group stage, Canada was still on the loose when it lost 6-3 to Switzerland and 3-2 to Denmark.
At the Beijing Olympics earlier this year, Tre Kronor defeated Canada 2-0 in the quarter-finals.
Switzerland – USA and Germany – Czech Republic are the other two quarters.
The quarter-final matches will be played on Thursday.
Tre Kronor – Canada has a dip at 15.20 Swedish time.
