Women’s World Cup – At the end of the preliminary round of the World Cup, the Swiss women’s national team in Calgary has no chance of winning even against Finland. Coach Colin Muller’s team suffered a 6–0 defeat.
Switzerland fell disappointingly behind with 0:4 in the opening third. Petra Nieminen scored a hat-trick for the Finns, following 0:1 in the power play by Susanna Tapani. As a result, Swiss women only wanted to limit the damage. In the end, however, the biggest defeat in this World Cup came.
Not only did the Swiss women not refuse defensively, but as in previous games, they also acted harmlessly offensively. He could only hit five shots on goal against Finland.
Alina Muller, who missed the second game with an ankle injury and can no longer play for the rest of the World Cup, was again absent from every nook and corner. In four group games, Switzerland scored only one goal in 1:3 against the Russians. The Swiss team will also face the ROC team in the quarter-finals.
Special Mode wants the Swiss women to be the quarterfinalists ahead of the tournament as they were with the best five teams from Group A. The match against Russia will take place on Saturday.
