WC QROUND: May 9 GDT - Finland vs. Latvia

[Leke]

This game is so frustrating!!

Ei prkl tätä selvinpäin kato..

 

[Shack]

The whole first unit is so out of touch.

And so is the 3rd and 4rd.

We have decent defence but very poor offence. Damn with you Erkka, do something, give Kurri a change to show what he's made of and call Gretzy to be the center of that line.

EDIT: And finally we have two good commentators at our yle-team

tehka maali leijonat!




I'm getitn nervous... how much is left in the game?

 

[Everest]

Underway...and Latvia sending 3 forwards in on the hunt now...close chance for them already.

 

[SergeiK]

Now I`ve seen it all: Petteri Nummelin played well in defence.

Tambijevs was real close.

 

[Everest]

3rd just started...Finns have looked very nervous on the ice too! They have misfired on several chances.

 

[Noutaja]

Do you know what is really sad? If we lose, it´s not because of undervaluing Latvia...

 

[Leke]

Latvia starts it offence game. This doesn't promise good..
Although it gives a counter-attack change for our fast wingers.. mainly Hagman

 

[FINNtastic]

Three stars so far:
*** Brent Reiber
** Miroslav Halecky
* Dean Laschowski

 

[SergeiK]

Finland is now really under pressure. I belive we`ll see latvian goal real soon.

 

[Everest]

The Latvians pressed for a goal...Pantalejev had a strong one handed showing...on a wraparound...nearly beat Backsrtom...about 8 minutes into the 3rd.

 

[SergeiK]

Petteri Nummelin lost once again puck and was in no hurry to get it back.

God I hate that guy

 

[Everest]

Game has opened up alot now...Semenojov (sp)?) Kapanen exchange chances.

 

[Leke]

Irbe keeps his cool. Even after our man runs him over.

 

[Everest]

A little over 5 minutes to go in the game now...still scoreless

 

[Leke]

Wasn't the first pass that Kallio misses...

 

[Everest]

Finns are exhausted...making simple plays look difficult. Latvia is not giving the Finns any quality shots the past 3 minutes...6 min. to go

 

[FINNtastic]

Now or never!

 

[Leke]

Change of a lifetime! PP in this crusial moment. You gotta score it now boys!

 

[Everest]

5:37 to go Ignatejevs ha taken an Int. penalty off a faceoff.

 

[SergeiK]

Change of a lifetime! PP in this crusial moment. You gotta score it now boys!

Why are putting the first unit there? They have been lost tonight. Please send in second unit.

 

[Leke]

Latvia nearly scores! This is seriously looking bad..

 

[Everest]

Karahlati forcing an impatient shot...nothing impressive by the Finn powerplay Latvians came very close as soon as the powerplay was over 2.5 min to go in the game

 

[RorschachWJK]

Wow. Still 0-0
