Team Austria upset Norwegians, now very close to remaining in Group A

This game has shown us how balanced the teams are in this tournament. Many considered the Norwegians heavy favourites, but that´s not how it played out on the ice. Although Norway scored the first goal early in the second period, Austria led 3-2 by the end of the second period and added two more goals in the third for a huge win. Now if Slovakia lose to the favoured Czechs in the day´s late game, Austria´s position in the group for next year will be secure.

Reactions

Peka Hämäläinen (Austria): I am very satisfied with our performance. We had pressure and won the game. It is very important for us. This lines were playing good and maybe we will play with this lines in the next match too. Paula Marchhart is good goalie and today performed great again.

Laura Rollins (Norway, assistant coach): We have expected that it will be one of harder matches. We did not played what we wanted to play. Austrians had couple of great rebounds. We missed a little bit luck, it sometimes happens in ice hockey. Honestly, it was pretty tought game with Czech Republic and some girls could be a little bit tired.
