Germany played well against Sweden for a long time. In the end you had to admit defeat to the top nation.
The German national ice hockey team lost their opening game at the World Championships in Finland. In the end it was 0-1 against Sweden. The DEB team showed an impressive performance against the favorites and was the game-determining team, especially in the first third, but did not want to score a goal. In the second third, the game then increasingly developed into an exchange of blows with good chances on both sides, which, however, also remained unused.
That all changed early in the third period when Oscar Lindberg deflected his team-mate Jonatan Berggren’s shot into an untenable 42nd minute, giving Sweden the lead. The Scandinavians then controlled the game and did not let the victory be taken away from them. The Germans’ final offensive bore no fruit. However, the German team already has the chance to do better tomorrow, Saturday. At 19.20 we face Finland.
