In Austria group
Great Britain first to be relegated at the World Championship
Great Britain is the first team to be relegated at the Ice Hockey World Championship in the Czech Republic. The British team lost the relegation showdown against Norway in Austria Group A in Prague on Whit Monday with a score of 2:5 and have therefore been relegated early.
The British team will face Austria in their final group game on Tuesday (12.20 pm). Meanwhile, Sweden secured victory in Group B with a 3:1 win over France.
For the point-less British team, the defeat means an immediate return to the B World Cup. The second team to be relegated will be determined this evening in Kazakhstan's clash with Poland. Hungary and Slovenia have already been promoted to next year's A World Championship.
Meanwhile, Sweden claimed their sixth win in six games at this World Championship. First place is now out of reach for the three-crown team. Their opponents in the quarter-finals could be Austria if Finland slip up and miss out on fourth place. The Finns will face Denmark in the evening.
