Kettner: “We showed two good games here” / E.Nix and M.Swikull score for Germany
The U18 women's national team wins 2-0 (0-0; 0-0; 2-0) against Switzerland and secures second place in the 3-nation tournament in Füssen.
The German team dug deep in the Swiss third from the start, but despite their clear superiority remained goalless until the final third. In the 56th minute, their efforts were finally rewarded with a goal from Emily Nix. The Swiss tried everything again and took their goalkeeper off the ice in favor of a sixth player one minute before the end of the game, but Marina Swikull sealed the victory with her goal to make it 2-0 and at the same time second place in the 3-Nation Tournament in Füssen.
Tommy Kettner, U18 women's national coach: "The team was able to build on the sporting progress they had already shown in Selb and showed an excellent performance."
