Together with the results of the quarterfinals, the pairs of semi-finalists are also known. The hosts, the Czechs, will meet the hitherto unbeaten Swedes in their semi-final, while Canada, the home of hockey, will face Switzerland.
Pavel Zaha scored the only goal for the Czech Republic
At the end of the first third, the home team started to take over the initiative, but neither team could score a goal in the first 20 minutes.
At the beginning of the second period, I could cheer the crowded stands of the home team, because Zaha opened the scoring.

During the remaining third, the American pressure increased, but they were unable to regain the lost ground. In the third period, none of the teams managed to get the puck into the opponent’s goal, as the home fans cheered for the team’s success.
It has already been reported that Canada and Switzerland reached the first semi-finals in the championship.
Both the USA and the Czech Republic collected 16 points in the group stage, finishing second and third respectively in their subgroups.
In the first half of the game, the Swedes attacked more actively, but the Finns also created several dangerous moments. The third period ended with a goalless draw.
At the beginning of the second period, the Swedes had the opportunity to play in the numerical majority for the second time, but this opportunity was also not used. Despite the Swedish pressure, no words were scored in the second third either.
After 40 minutes played, the ratio of Swedish and Finnish shots was 24:8.
Also in the last third, the Finnish defense bravely held on until five minutes before the end of regular time, Rasmus Dalins opened the score, putting the favorites in the lead.

Sweden have won all seven of their group games so far, with all of their successes coming in regular time. On the other hand, the fate of the Finnish team was not known until the last round, in which, thanks to Great Britain’s success over Austria, it was Finland that reached the quarter-finals as the fourth from Group A.
The medal winners will be announced in Prague at the finals on Sunday, May 26.
