Latvia Beat Sweden
In Team Sweden's second game of the Ice Hockey World Championships, they played Latvia. Normally, this is an opponent Sweden is supposed to beat easily. However, modern world championships in ice hockey are close, you cannot be sure to win any game. While Sweden beat Austria comfortably in the first game, Latvia won by 3-2 on penalties. Daniel does not like this. He is a patriot and always want Sweden to win. I find it interesting that teams that are normally considered less good can beat one of the top teams like Team Sweden. It would be fun, and a nice boost for the sport, if Latvia could win more games against tougher opponents, preferably scoring a medal. It is not fun if the me dals of the world championship tournaments always go to the same few teams, like they use to. Go Latvia!

Of course, go Latvia!!!
Though medals is just a dream jet, but we never stop dreaming, at least not me.
And another point - we had not been good against Sweden so far, but we have won good teams before as well. For example, one of our most beloved victory over Russia in St.Petersburg!
Go Latvia!!! :) We are very proud of or team and hope to have a good game with Austria too! As we latvian fans say - SARAUJ, LATVIJA!
