The Slovaks started actively, they had the puck under control from the beginning and the Japanese were under constant pressure. Suchý and Žabka had their first chances, but Ocuka neutralized both attempts. Eliaš scored the first intervention only after five minutes of the game, but then the Slovaks were weakened and the Slovak goalkeeper had to intervene during the Ušia shot. The favorite of the duel then took over again and in the 10th goal, Dvorský and Repčík also “started” the opponent. The Japanese got into the offensive only due to the indiscipline of Slovak players, but with one weakening, Repčík escaped, but his second goal did not come.

The pressure of the Slovaks continued in the second period. The Japanese resisted for a long time, their goalkeeper scored one intervention after another. He shone especially after Mišiak’s shot from the right side and then also after a nice individual action by the defender Žabka. It was played smoothly with a minimum of interruptions. The third goal was expected until the 35th minute, when Dvorský scored his second goal after a nice action and Molnár also prevailed 48 seconds after him. Mišiak adjusted to 5: 0, but the Japanese then took the floor when Elias overcame Sasanuma. However, two seconds before the end of the second act, Chromiak scored Slovakia’s sixth goal.
