The women retain their playoff chances. Men's playoffs.
Despite the defeat by the Swedes, which came after a lukewarm start, a good comeback and then a difficult ending in which the girls had to play hard and very accurate stones that always missed by a little bit, the Czechs keep the opportunity to advance to the playoffs. They probably need two wins from the remaining three matches (Scots, Norwegians, Swiss). We won today against the Slovaks, who have had the same record as us so far. A bit of a nervous game from our eastern neighbours was decided by a four in the fifth end. Although we then made things slightly more difficult with a mistake that offered the Slovaks a three, we went into the tenth end four up. A 10-6 win is good. The fans arrived and cheered a bit.
