The Swedes played well.
The Mabergs created a good position early on and it was only thanks to a double take out by Mark that we only got a double in the first end. Our play then improved somewhat and we played a one against in the third end to tie the game at two-two. In the end, the score of 4 : 11 does not reflect the balance of power on the ice. Despite an almost unbelievable mistake by the Swedes, after which we played a deuce, we could not find a recipe that would allow us to press and force our opponent to play more difficult stones. We have three losses, but we will try to think of something for the next opponents. Not everything was wrong with us. In a televised match, Norway beat Italy 6 to 5 in extra time. Next, China got the better of the Russian and the Scot beat the nervous Swiss.
