Sweden’s lead in the game was huge, especially in the first two thirds, but the Scandinavians’ overexertion with constant control of the puck to play until a clean shot into an empty net prevented the score from growing rapidly.
With excellent play, the Swedes attacked a lot and opened the scoring in the middle of the first third, with Markus Johansson excelling.

Giants’ advantage in puck control and long stay in the opponent’s zone was not a sufficient argument for the Swedish national team to score another goal before the break.

Also in the second third, the game mostly took place in the Kazakh zone or near it, and there was no shortage of work for the goalkeeper Nikit Boyarkin, who worked flawlessly until the loss of the second goal. What the Swedes failed to do in equal formations, they did in the numerical minority, Linus Johansson shooting accurately in the counterattack.
The nature of the game was indicated by the ratio of shots – after the second third, 35:5 in favor of Sweden.
