20.05.2010 Quarterfinal: Russia - Canada 5:2

Icehockey WC 2010 at Germany

Lanxess Arena, Cologne (Germany)

(Pentax k-x with Tamron SP AF 17-50mm 2.8 XR Di II LD Asp IF and Sigma AF 50-150mm 2.8 EX DC APO HSM II)

This game should bring the revenge for the early leaving of the olympic championship against the Canadian. And so the Russians showed immediately why they are the fancied team of this tournament. The Canadians were having no answer to the pressureful way of playing of the Russians and so they tried all the time to provoke them. Incomprehensibly the Russians agreed on that and so there were several bunches to stop. Hard work for the referee and his linesmen.
But there was also ice hockey to be played and during that the Russian impressively showed their power by winning the game by 5:2. Revenge accomplished.
