Pixbo ready for SM final - three goals of "the best in the world"

After the Pixbo victory with 8-5 in the first semifinal, the last two matches have been all the more thrilling.

The decisions have come after extra time where Endre pulled the longest straw in match two and Pixo in match three.

Thus, Pixbo had 2-1 in matches before Friday's meeting.

It was not thrilling this time.

Visiting Pixbo opened the scoring after only 30 seconds and ten minutes later Eliska Krupnova made it 2-0.

For Krupnova, it did not stop there.

The Czech, who was named the world's best player last year, became the top scorer with three hits.

After 4-1 in the first period, Krupnova put 5-1 in the second.

On her own, she created space and pulled off a real shot and extended Pixbo's lead.
