In an important match against the Danes, after a good pre-match practice, we had the advantage going into the first end and we made the most of it with a deuce. However, we got it back and after that the Danes played a one with our advantage. The eighth end was decisive, in which Madeleine Dupont couldn't play a better stone than the two Czechs that were in the rings. This gave us an 8 : 5 lead, which we confirmed in the ninth end with a game one, albeit after a very complicated course. In the televised Czech Republic - Russia men's match, the Czechs lead 4 : 3 after five ends and have the advantage of the last stone. The key matches in both categories are yet to come. Keep your fingers crossed and look forward to curling.
