With about 7 minutes left in the opening period, Finland is on top. The Finnish press causes much more trouble for Holland’s opening game than Holland does for Finland.
Fouls on both 4, so there is room for one more, so to speak.
Among the Finnish goalkeepers, Kasper Kangas is on the field a lot now and participates in opening the game and in the attacking game. Finland clearly uses two bags more than I have noticed before, although this is of course nothing new.
Tuukka Pikkarainen is no longer able to play in this game after his initial injury. At least Iiro Vanhaa has now been seen on the sideline in more pitches.
When there are 12 field players and 2 goalkeepers in the lineup, and Finland uses three field players throughout the match, Finland now has to mix up its players.
