Will I have Swiss jokes for today when Finland’s men and women’s team both compete against Switzerland? I hope not because ones I had yesterday were very cheesy.
Both teams are battling but it looks like this is going to be a low scoring affair. No goals after the first twenty minutes. Kiira Yrjänen was issued the only penalty in the first period, for hooking at 17:02.
Things are getting spicy! Naisleijonat had sixteen (16!!) shots on goal in twenty minutes but Germany's Johanna May denied all but one. Viivi Vainikka scored the only goal of the period. Jenni Hiirikoski is leading this game's points tally with two points on two assists.
