Seven o'clock for breakfast, seven forty to leave for the hall, seven fifty to start a board game of dopple or dublo or doubles. Then warm up, warm up, stretching and pre match training. So far we have had the advantage only twice, but this time we are outplaying the Koreans thanks to great draws by Betya and Klara and also good throwing by Terka and Anna. The match itself starts with our number one and then the opponents take turns with deuces. However, the fourth and fifth end were the turning point in the result. First the Opponent played for three with an advantage and in the next end we had a difficult throw in against a three, which he turned into a guard and it was three again. Five down is a lot, but we're trying to play something in end six. Unfortunately, it's a Korean one. It's getting tough, but we're still trying. But our opponent is playing perfectly, he's not letting us do anything and we have no choice but to concede the match. The Women's WC is a long and very tough tournament. A number of players from different teams are showing signs of fatigue, such as coughs and colds, impaired technique, falls during slips and throws. But it's the same for everyone and we will rest up this afternoon and go all out for the last three games!
