The Swiss national ice hockey team meets Germany at the World Championships in Riga. With an undisputed 5-0 win over France, the Germans secure their place in the quarter-finals, but can no longer be caught by the Danes.
Alexander Ehl (23) and Frederik Tiffels (28) provide an early lead in the first third. JJ Peterka (21), Daniel Fischbuch (28) and Maxim Kastner (30) then make it all clear in the middle and final third.
The Germans are making an increasing run-up. Having started the World Cup with losses to Sweden, Finland and the US, they already had their backs against the wall. But then Harold Kreis’ team won four in a row (against Denmark, Austria, Hungary and France).
Bad memories of 2021
Switzerland, winner of group B, is the favorite against the Germans after a flawless preliminary round. In the past, however, the national team often had difficulties – especially when it mattered.
For example, Germany was the last stop in the World Cup quarter-finals in 2021 and 2010. Just like in the 2018 Olympic Games in the play-offs for the quarter-finals. Then our northern neighbors stormed successively to the silver medal. (SME)
