Slovaks can count on more support from their fans because the Czech city of Ostrava is close to the border with Slovakia. On the other hand, in the world ranking, Germany is higher than its rivals, and in addition, it won silver medals in the world championship last year.
The German national team was close to scoring a goal at the beginning of the game, but the Slovaks successfully stopped the puck at the goal line, and the goalkeeper Stanislav Škorvanek was helped by the goal post. In the middle of the first third, the Slovaks did not take advantage of their opportunities, and at the end of the first third, the German goalpost already saved them from conceding a goal.
