[Limo]

i am amazed when i see France second line I'm not afraid to say 8-1 for France

 

[t0ny]

Yeah i will take that
Lets hope we will not make the same mistakes than last year after the game vs Russia.

 

[Domenica]

Almost a SHG by Rocco (Italy). Not one shot on goal for France in that PP.

 

[quartus]

Italy seems hungry for some escargot so far.

 

[JJTT]

Rocco and Larkin with good changes but can't score.

 

[t0ny]

The two goalies are great so far.
Italy dominating the second part of the first period

 

[Exarz]

Great game so far!

Both teams look hungry

 

[JJTT]

Great game so far!

Both teams look hungry

Yeah, it is. Compared to Ger-Kaz game yesterday speed is great

 

[NicolasH]

Very fun game to watch.

 

[OscarsCards]

Great game so far!

Both teams look hungry

No, it's Italy vs France

 

[Death]

France looks nervous, Italy exploiting their mistakes. I hope they come back with more composure

 

[Domenica]

Whoever designed all the fake lace jerseys clearly ran out of ideas by the time they had to do the French.

 

[t0ny]

Meunier on the breakaway !!!

 

[Death]

Meunier on the breakaway !!!

Great, I was beginning to fear the team would have to rely on one single line for scoring !!!

 

[JJTT]

Stupid penalty for France and Scandella scores on pp.

 

[t0ny]

1-1

Cristo.... we had to stop giving pp to Italy

 

[Juzmo]

Neither goalie likes to be scored on it seems like.

 

[JJTT]

5vs3 for France. Almost 2 minutes.

 

[JJTT]

Wow terrible pp and penalty for France..

 

[Juzmo]

Solid 2min of 5on3 pp from France.

 

[t0ny]

Solid 2min of 5on3 pp from France.

We had to score... lack of opportunism could bite us in the ***

 

[Exarz]

Scandella's penalty was a bit harsh IMO..

 

[Death]

Totally harsh if you ask me .... France got lucky with this one.

 

[t0ny]

Ding ! Amar hits the post...
