We have seen how Sweden plays and know a bit about them. It's a short tournament, so it's about taking one step at a time, said Vojtech Hradec, one of the Czech goal-scorers, to the JVM website after the match.

With two goals in the first period, the Czechs made sure to take hold. Slovakia reduced the score twice, first to 1-2 in the middle act and then 2-4 five minutes before the end, but didn't get any closer.

The Czech Republic, like Sweden, has won all its matches, and when the two teams meet on New Year's Eve, the group victory is at stake.

In the other group, Finland beat the USA 4-3 after overtime, while Canada defeated Germany 3-0. With three matches played, the USA leads with seven points, followed by Canada, which also has seven points but a worse goal difference, and Finland with five points.
