Sweden Suffers 5-2 Loss to Finland in Euro Hockey Tour

It became a new loss for Tre Kronor Dam in the European Championship Hockey Tour in Switzerland. The team lost with 2–5 against Finland.

We must be honest, it is a number of individual mistakes that makes it run away, says national team captain Ulf Lundberg in SVT.

It was Sweden that took the lead in the first period, but early in the second, Finland equalized, and then they pulled away to 3–1 before half of the second period had even passed.

A Swedish reduction did not really help when Finland then made two more goals in the third period and wrote the final score to 5–2.

It is Sweden's second loss in the Euro Hockey Tour, since the women's national team lost to Switzerland with 0–4 on Thursday.

On Saturday, the Swedes play the last match of the tournament, against the Czech Republic at 13.00.
