Party to draw many conclusions on living between Finland and the hosts, Slovakia, which took the match in his hand until the final stretch of the match when Ruutu signed a double to put the Finns in the quarterfinals and eliminating the Slovaks.
Finland 2 to 1
Slovakia (0-1, 0-0, 2-0)
New team victory for Halonen in a match that was lost for much of the time. The Finns, as we are accustomed in this World Cup, dominated the puck and fired more than the rival, but not effectiveness, which itself had Gaborik on a PowerPlay for theirs. 0-1 and the rest.
After keeping forces, both teams left the ice show almost the same as what we saw in the previous period. Finland, now behind, seeking earnestly the goal, but Halak was right between the sticks, like Vehanen, who took the odd occasion of the Slovaks. The light did not move in these second 20 minutes, so everything will not be decided in the third and final time. Mikko Koivu had
draw just outside the locker room in a dogfight that Jaroslav Halak blocked, shutting down the opportunity for the Finns, but could not prevent the puck went into the goal after 7 minutes the 3rd time. At the end of a faceoff Tuomo Ruutu received the puck and from a very difficult tie made in collaboration with the Slovakian goalkeeper. But Ruutu statistics were not going to be standing there. 4 minutes later, with a very strong slap shot from the left side of the frontcourt, the wing put Finland ahead in the selection and qualified for the quarterfinals, besides eliminating Slovakia, one of the great disappointments of this your tournament.
