When first hearing about Germany facing Russia beforehand everybody thought of Germany hopefully not loosing too high because a defeat was clearly expected. But the German national team was very activly opposing and nearly across the whole game on the same level with the Russians, demanding everything from them. At least the Russians were able to win but with the result 3:2 it was very tight and until the last second they had to fear the leveler scored by the Germans.

Russia - Germany 3:2 (1:0 / 1:1 / 1:1)
