Finland strolled through this Nationscup like your average retired old man strolls through the park, they made it look very easy. The list of their traumatized victims is rather long, all of the following teams lost 4-0:
Norway,
Ukraine,
Croatia,
Portugal,
France and
Poland.
The only team that was able to take a map from the strongest team this year, thus losing 4-2, was
Belgium, which gives us a splinter of hope for tonight's game.
Belgium had a more difficult route to the final. Most of their games were far from a clear cut victory, both
Austria,
Colombia,
Estonia and
Germany took a map of the Belgians while still losing the game. The only two teams that went down without a real fight were
Switzerland and
The United States of America.
After losing the winner-bracket finals against
Finland they are looking for some sweet revenge. Everyone knows that it will be a very hard, if not near impossible, task for them, but it's not over until the fat lady sings.
Jere will be pleased
