They play together in one team (IKSU), in one line. One of them creates goal-scoring opportunities, and the other one converts them into goals. Today, Cassandra Edberg and Iza Rydfjäll showed their cooperation in the national team as well, when they contributed with the first Swedish goal to the final draw 4:4.

From 11:30 the main Palacký University sports hall will feature the battle between Switzerland and Slovakia. The Swiss will be entering the game as clear favourites. They thrashed the first outsider of the preliminary group and we can expect them to succeed in the same way against Slovakia. On the other hand, the Slovaks surprised with a good defence and showed promising performance to the audience. The question is, however, whether it is going to be enough for the defending champions from Switzerland.

The Nordic derby. The encounter of the traditional rivals came at the end of the first championship day. People say – the best comes at the end. And that is also the way it was. Finnish as well as Swedish fans arrived to see the game and you could not miss them in the hall. But the atmosphere was not as loud as in the previous derby between the Czech Republic and Slovakia. Good mood and confidence was apparent in both teams from the very beginning. Attention of the entire audience was caught during the warm-up by the Finnish player No. 12, Silja Eskelinen. Her special warm-up model resembled a model seen more often in ice-hockey.

She was one of the most dangerous players for the Polish goal in today's game. She scored twice, added two assists, and as the captain she led her team to victory. We asked Flurina Marti about her impressions

The second Division B game presented the encounter of two debutants. At the championships in 2004 and 2006 Hungary finished on the last position in Division A, and they did not start in Poland. Germany finished on the 7th position in Division A in 2004, on the 6th position at the home championship two years later, and they relegated after finishing on the eighth position in 2008.

At 17:00, more fans (742) than for the opening game arrived to the sports hall in Olomouc. The reason for this increased attendance was the first game of the Czech team against Slovakia. Both teams started the game with three lines, but the Czechs continued with two lines only, which brought them pressure conditioned by good control of the ball with their floorball sticks. But the Slovaks defended well, scooped up loose balls and played rather individually in comparison with the Czechs. The Czech team took advantage of their superiority in the 12th minute, when they beat the Slovak goalie with two quick goals (Surá, Polzerová). Both teams played quite aggressively, which the Slovaks managed to take advantage of, and at 17:28 after two tip-ins they reduced the score to 1:2 (Izraelová).

The encounter between Austria and Russia started the programme of Division B of the U19 Women's World Championship 2010 in Olomouc. While the Austrian girls are participating for the first time, for the Russians this is the third participation already, and second in Division B.

Today, on May 4, 2010, the U19 Women's World Floorball Championship in Olomouc was started with the opening ceremony, during which the dance group TK RYTMUS performed the cycle "MÁ VLAST". Together with the organizing team members they officially launched the World Championship. The ceremony took place before the game between the Czech Republic and Slovakia. First of all, the word was taken by Martin Novotný, mayor of the city of Olomouc, who wished success and good luck to all participants, followed by John Liljelund, IFF Secretary General, and Roman Grabovský, President of the Championship Organizing Committee.

Both teams entered the match with a bit of respect, but without any worries from the opponents. The Swiss team was in control of the game, which was confirmed by the second line in their second appearance on the court. First, Corin Rüttiman did not notice she was alone in front of the goal and hurriedly shot, but missed. But Simone Wyss scooped up the ball and opened the score in the 3rd minute of the game. Right after the next substitution the captain Flurina Marti added another goal. In the 8th minute, Marti scored her second and made the Polish goalie leave her goal. But her substitute managed to keep clean sheet for 7 minutes only; then Rüttiman made the score 4:0. In the 17th minute the Poles did not manage to push the ball behind the goalie's back and right during the Swiss breakaway three of them went behind the goal to attack Rüttiman, and thus left two unmarked opponents in front of their own goal. The most active Polish player in the first period was player No. 11, Maja Stenka, who hit the post and appeared in some other chances as well, but did not score.

The second period started calmly, but then 4 goals were scored within 10 minutes. The Swiss added three of them and the Poles scored their first when the game was 0:6. A shot by Raczkowska was tipped in by Kubowicz. After the 7th goal, Mrugala returned to the Polish crease. The second half of the period was full of opportunities on both sides, until Sawicka was awarded a 2-minute-penalty for slashing. Switzerland played their first power play in the game, in which Rüttiman scored and concluded the score in the second period.

In the third period the Poles again had their substituting goalie in the crease. On the side of the Swiss, who had been playing with two lines only so far, all players got onto the court. The game was already almost decided but the Poles did not give up and their repeated attacks into the Swiss defence meant a threat for the Swiss goal. But Switzerland controlled the game and created many goal-scoring opportunities, which they were not able to turn into goals, however. In the end Walther set the final score to 9:1.

Hence, the game did not bring any surprise. The Swiss players in a moderate pace confirmed their role of favourites and recorded their first 3 points into the table. The unusually quiet but numerous Swiss audience is worth mentioning as well.
